Martina was absolutely wonderful, we had a medical emergency and she went out of her way to help us, honestly don't know what we would have done without her, thank you once again Martina from the bottom of our 3 heart's, your kindness was well and truly appreciated. It was great to meet and fuss lovely Jill, Martina's dog, we all fell in love with her. The big goodies hamper that greeted us, together with Martina of course, was a lovely surprise, great start to a great unforgettable holiday. Hope to get back again sometime in the near future, visited lot's of lovely interesting places and 2 lovely pubs very close by were great. We're all amazed at how lovely and friendly the Irish people are and go out of their way to help when needed, absolutely great

Was also a lovely welcoming hamper from Martina 100% we will definitely be back. Loved every minute there.
