Ulster Tatler chats to Susan McCague,
owner of Bay Tree Boutique B&B in Hillsbourough.


Tell us a bit about your role and describe a typical working day
for you.
I am the owner of Bay Tree Boutique B&B which opened two years
ago. I took early retirement after a long primary school teaching
career. I have a passion for cooking, baking, gardening and interiors.
I look after my guests from first point of contact, finding out a little
about them, so I am able to customise their stay to suit the occasion.
At any one point, I only have four guests staying, so I am able to
personally look after their every need.


Describe a typical working day for you.
I am in the kitchen early in the morning, preparing breakfast for my
guests. I particularly enjoy this interaction, and in the past two years
have met people from all walks of life, and from all over the world.
Many of my guests return again and again, and become friends.


What do you like most about living / working in Hillsborough?
I feel very fortunate to live so close to the beautiful village of
Hillsborough, which I believe is the hidden gem of the NI crown. This
is further reinforced by the re-opening and re-branding of stunning
Hillsborough Castle now owned by Historic Royal Palaces. It has so
much to offer visitors: independent gift shops, clothes boutiques, and
a wealth of high quality restaurants. and coffee shops.There are many
beautiful places to walk, surrounded by so much history. Indeed,
you any even be lucky to catch a glimpse of a member of the Royal
Family!
