About

Discover Newmills Country House: Nestled on the serene shores of Larne Lough, near Ballycarry, Newmills Country House is a stunning Georgian estate set within 12 acres of private, tranquil grounds. We are proud custodians of our 400 year old water power heritage at Newmills, the original water powered mill for the surrounding townlands. Today, we continue to create green energy, producing our own electricity from water power and reducing the carbon footprint of the estate .

Guests have full access to the drawing room breakfast area, equipped with comfortable sofas, an impressive book collection, and an outdoor patio. BBQ facilities are available upon request for those perfect al fresco evenings.
