Traumhaft in sehr schöner Lage
Pros:

Ein kleines wunderschönes neu renoviertes Haus, sehr netter Empfang mit vielen Ausflugstips. Sehr sauber, gepflegt und auf Wunsch tägliche Reinigung des Zimmers. Außerhalb der Saison ist Dienstags und Mittwochs die Küche geschlossen. Das Essen schmeckt sehr gut und ist empfehlenswert. Die Bar hat täglich geöffnet.

Beautiful room with sea view & great food
Pros:

The room was luxurious and so was the bathroom. I didn't expect such modern facilities above a pub. The bathroom even had a mirror with de-mist function. The bed was super comfy and the room spacious with a sea view.
The staff was really nice. We finally got to try Irish food and it tasted great.
Great location , just down the road from the folk village and 25 minutes from the Slieve League Cliffs.
Definitely would recommend

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Le coin est magnifique et la chambre avec vue sur mer est absolument splendide
Juste une deuxième chaise ou un fauteuil serait un plus pour cette chambre

Cons:

Le fait qu on ai pas été prévenus qu il n y aurait pas de restauration le deuxième soir mais les propriétaires sont si sympas qu ils sont pardonnés
