An Irish Idyll - traditional stonewall cottage nestled in hills above Downings

10/10 Excellent
"My oh my. This wee cottage was better than I had hoped for. Simple in standing but plentiful in charm, the owner has done a wonderful job in not overcomplicating the property. It had everything we needed for our short break - but it is the spectacular setting with utterly incredible views that really sets this property apart. The heavy clouds in the ever changing sky, the absolute silence and the cool breeze - when it feels like the rest of Europe is burning - all lent themselves to a reset. It was breathtaking. Thank you so much for sharing your cottage William. We loved it."

"Great hotel. In center of town. Breakfast delicious. Enjoyed our 2 night stay; but as our room, 32, was directly above a loading bay, the noise early each morning was V loud, to be honest. We also had no seaview, which was on our booking. We will use this hotel again. Just not room 32 ..."
