Places to stay in Limavady
A Limavady stay can mean hotel time on the town’s edge or a more independent countryside base in the Roe Valley. Roe Valley Resort and Roe Valley Cottage are separate properties, with different addresses and daily routines. Choose the resort when its room and leisure arrangements are part of the holiday; consider the cottage at Drumadreen when cooking and a rural return matter more. Limavady’s arts centre and the country park can anchor the visit without turning every day into a long coastal drive.

FIND YOUR BASE
Choosing where to stay in Limavady
Lisnakilly Road for a resort-led stay
Roe Valley Resort offers several bedroom and family formats, with leisure and activity arrangements that need checking against the selected booking. Choose it when time at the property is an important part of the break rather than simply a place to return after touring.
Good for: A hotel occasion or family stay with planned on-site time.
Before you choose: Room, residence and activity inclusions differ. A private hot tub or every advertised activity is not a standard-room entitlement.
Drumadreen for separate countryside self-catering
Roe Valley Cottage sits between Limavady and Dungiven, away from the town centre. Its kitchen and living space offer a different way to stay, especially when your party prefers meals at its own pace after a chosen valley outing.
Good for: A rural base with independent meals.
Before you choose: Plan transport, groceries and the return after an evening out. This cottage is not part of Roe Valley Resort.
Town culture and riverside woodland: two local day choices
Roe Valley Arts & Cultural Centre provides a town-centre reason to visit, while the country park offers woodland and riverside paths outside the centre. Choose one as the main outing and leave room for the accommodation you selected. This is a daytime comparison, not a third hotel district.
Good for: A local break with culture or an outdoor focus.
Before you choose: Check current events and the suitable park route. Neither a town visit nor a park label guarantees a level or short walk from the bedroom.
Make it your kind of break
FAMILY BREAKS
Choose meals and space deliberately
Compare the resort’s exact family bed arrangement with the cottage’s separate bedrooms and cooking facilities. The better choice depends on how you want to spend the evening as much as on the daytime outing.
QUIET BREAKS
Keep the valley stay local
A country-park walk or a town event can give a short break enough purpose. Ask about room position or the cottage’s arrangements and avoid assuming that a resort or countryside label guarantees silence.
A LITTLE ROOM TO EXPLORE
A short stay in Limavady
Choose one base and leave time for the place itself.
Arrive at the right property
Confirm the address, room or cottage details and the first evening’s food plan before settling in.
Choose the park or town programme
Take a suitable riverside outing or a planned cultural visit, leaving time to enjoy the accommodation instead of adding an unrelated coastal circuit.
Finish with one nearby stop
Keep the final morning proportionate to the onward journey, with a short town visit or relaxed breakfast rather than another full-day excursion.
Less time? With one night, choose a property accepting that length and combine it with the country park or one town event. A cottage minimum stay may call for a longer visit.

Hotel · Limavady
Roe Valley Resort
10 Lisnakilly Road, Limavady, BT49 9FB
A Limavady resort hotel, currently branded Roe Valley Resort, with family rooms and separate accommodation choices that need careful comparison.
Why compare it: Choose the Lisnakilly Road resort when the specific room and included leisure arrangements form part of your stay.
Family suites are described with a super-king bed, two singles and a pull-out sofa bed.
Junior Family rooms have two double beds.
Suites, lodges and residences are separate options.
Before you book: Confirm permitted occupancy, exact beds, bathroom and entrance route. Ask which leisure sessions and activities are included in your booking; selected-room hot tubs are not a general room feature.
273 Ballyquinn Road, Drumadreen, Limavady, County Derry/Londonderry
A separate countryside cottage between Limavady and Dungiven, for visitors who prefer self-catering to the Limavady resort hotel.
Why compare it: Choose separate countryside self-catering at Drumadreen, with cooking space and a planned journey into Limavady.
A double bedroom and a second bedroom for up to three people are described.
The cottage has a kitchen/dining area and separate living room.
The operator places it about four miles from Limavady on Ballyquinn Road.
Before you book: Confirm beds, bathroom, access and parking, together with minimum stay and any dog arrangement. This is a countryside address, not a walkable town-centre or resort-annexe claim.
Are Roe Valley Cottage and Roe Valley Resort the same business?
They are separate shortlist choices at different addresses. The resort is on Lisnakilly Road; the cottage is at Drumadreen on Ballyquinn Road between Limavady and Dungiven.
Is the cottage in central Limavady?
No. The operator describes a countryside location about four miles from Limavady. Plan the full journey to shops, meals and visits rather than assuming a town-centre walk.
What do resort family rooms include?
The operator lists different family and suite layouts. Confirm the actual beds, occupancy and current leisure or activity inclusions for your booking; do not assume every feature applies to every room.
Can I make this a country-park break?
Yes, with a suitable planned route. The park offers riverside woodland walks on Limavady’s outskirts, but check conditions and the route that fits your party rather than treating all paths as equivalent.
What should I book for an arts-centre evening?
Check the current programme and tickets, then arrange the return to your actual accommodation address. A rural cottage and a resort room require different evening travel plans.
