This was the ideal home away from home for me - a perfect representation of irish country life at it's best. The house was a steal for such a low price - everything was clean (this was important for me), tidy and cosy and had everything I needed. The sheep (and baby lambs), cattle and dogs made it really special. The owners couldn't have been nicer while still respecting privacy. I needed to step outside of my routine- this was the perfect escape. 5* I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a traditional irish countryside experience. I will definitely return!

The beds were very soft and not very comfortable. There was mould in one of the shower units and the shower didn't work very well (en suite) the main shower was adequate. There was a basin in the sink which was worn old and dirty. Bed linen didn't seem very clean and there were cob webs and dead flies on the window sills. Out the back door the guttering's were leaking and it was muddy and wet, there was no covering or clean dry place to sit or walk outside. There were lots of mouse traps to be seen thankfully didn't see any mice whilst there ! Bit disappointing that the hosts did not pop round to ask if we were comfortable, kept a big distance. Nice cottage but lots of room for improvement.
