Great nights sleep. Comfy, cosy and nice and quiet. Recommend
Pros:

Spacious room, bed and pillows super comfy and the room was really toasty and warm at all times. Water tea coffee etc all provided and the cereal was a nice touch. My young daughter woke up hungry and had a bowl of cornflakes so this was a nice touch.

Cons:

The main negative for me was the smell when we came into the house. I think the owners had a dog in the house so it was a stuffy, musty, animal smell. There were shoes lying at the front door too. Maybe a little basket or container with a lid for shoes- I’d like to walk into somewhere and feel it fresh and clean. First impressions mean a lot but other than that it was ideal for what we needed.

Great hosts, lovely guest house!
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay, it's a lovely house in gorgeous rural surroundings. It was easy to find and close proximity to the town by car. The room was nice and comfortable. Fiachra was the perfect host, really welcoming and helpful with recommendations around the area.

Cons:

Not a negative but if there was an option for a cooked breakfast it would be nice. However, there is cereal, tea/coffee and a fridge with fresh milk for those who like cereal :)

Pros:

A lovely rural setting off the busy roads. Fiachra greeted and looked after us, giving us great ideas for eating and sightseeing.
It is a lovely welcoming home, warm and clean. Loved our stay here.

Cons:

We were unsure about having the cereal that was offered to us so didn't partake as our confirmation email specifically said our booking did not include breakfast. If that just means no cooked breakfast but the host is making the cereal available that would be helpful to know.

A good place to spend a night after a long drive. Off the beaten track a bit, but with sat nav, easy to find.
Pros:

An attractive house, & our large room was clean & well set up with a good ensuite. Our host was charming.
Location was quiet, & a pretty outlook over the garden.

Cons:

Not within walking distance of the town, but that’s a choice we made because of the rural setting.
