Comfortable, clean, homely and everything you would need. 0.5 miles from a beautiful beach. Surrounded by fantastic scenery. We had a fabulous holiday.
Laura
House was clean and cosy. Really close to the pebbled beach. View was unbelievable. We will definitely be back.
Angela
We also could not figure out how to use the dishwasher and no instructions could be found anywhere. We enjoyed our stay in the cottage with beautiful scenery all around and only a 10mins walk to the local beech with fab views of Croagh Patrick. Also being 7kms outside the town of Louisburg didn't really matter or affect us.
