Our stay here was our last night after over a week of driving around Ireland and we needed a nice restful/peaceful place and this was it. Also got to meet some of my Irish relatives who stopped by and had drinks and dinner with us. Thanks everyone.

Beautiful property and great staff! Very clean; food and drink prices are reasonable. Not all that close, however, to any town or village if you're on foot. All in all a very good experience!
