A lovely stay in beaufiful, peaceful surroundings
We stayed on a beautiful estate surrounded by horses grazing on the land and their very own donkey, Jack Derby. If you call to Jack, he will come to the fence. He lets you pet him, and he expects carrots in return. John and Finola are gracious hosts, and it was nice to greet them every day. There have a beautiful garden that they lovingly care for, and many of the flowers bloomed during our 11-night stay. We enjoyed taking daily walks on the property, some of which were around 9 PM. The sun sets late in Ireland.

Nice place and nice stay
We enjoyed our stay and the house was very nice, clean and the beds were comfortable. The only thing we would suggest is a shade over the sky light in one of the bedrooms and little bigger tv in living room area. The house is situated in a nice country setting and very quiet. We loved the scenery and the houses. Our son stayed in the big house with his rugby teammates and was very nice as well. If we ever come back to Ireland we would stay again. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your home.

Beautiful Country Setting and House
The pictures online are accurate. The two-story unit is beautifully decorated and very comfortable with excellent bathrooms and a very quiet setting. The 200 acre estate has beautiful walks and vistas. We enjoyed beautiful daytrips, especially Achill. The owners live onsite and could not have been more helpful. The house is 3 miles away from a town, so plan to pick up groceries and beverages en route. Highly recommend.

Cozy and cute place
Communication was easy and great. Clean space, and very quiet area. Firm Mattress, not the best pillows but not horrible. A bit of a drive to most things, but pretty area.

Charming but remote
We loved our host Finola and the accommodations were charming and spacious, but the location was further from Galway than anticipated. It was easily 30 minutes, not the 20 min indicated in the listing. Also there was no clothes drier or usable boat as listed. However, the property was lovely and a short walk to the lake with the farmland and animals around was a highlight of our stay. Finola was an energetic, positive, and gracious host. Our stay here was unique and memorable on our overall Ireland adventure.
