Jim
Very well furnished including a well equipped modern kitchen. Open fires in lounge & dinning room complement the central heating (smokeless coal & wood supplied) Loved the welcoming pack... Including a yummy fruit loaf.. all 4 comfortable bedrooms are on suite, no queue for the bathroom! Located in the historic & friendly village of Caledon Co Tyrone, it is within easy reach of many places of interest. We absolutely loved our stay & wished we could have packed the cottage & its location in our suitcases to take home! Goose Cottage does not disappoint.

Fairly priced, convenient for car access and ideal for travelers to explore both Northern Ireland and the south. The kitchen and dinning area are also fit for purpose. The parking space within the gates is enough for 4 cars, more than the web stated 2 cars. We are very happy to be there for 6 nights. There are some recommendations for improvement: Some taps and toilet flushing switches are not functioning smoothly; Some central heating panels are not working (some of us felt a bit cold in the first two nights due to the temperature drop); Provide a fly-swatter if possible (a few flies tried to share the food with us and we could not find a easy way to get rid of them). Considering the price, we should not complaint about these minor flaws and we hope anyone reading this review would not be discourage to rent this cottage.

Quiet and peaceful place. Everything you need in the accommodation and we were left a beautiful fruit cake on arrival. I was travelling with an elderly parent and a teenager so really good to have ensuite rooms. Really did exceed our expectations.
