The apartment was beautiful, very tastefully furnished, spotless and supplied with everything necessary for a very comfortable stay. Our hosts were helpful and always available if necessary. Some of the attention to detail was amazing and you could spend hours getting interior design tips from the way the apartment was furnished. Lovely setting, just a 5 minute walk from a spectacular beach.
IrelandThis property was very well appointed with a real sense of luxury. The staff were so friendly and the breakfast was awesome!
United Kingdomsetting was beautiful. facility was very clean. amenities great
United States of AmericaThe property is located in an absolutely beautiful area—we were less than a two minute drive from a lovely, quiet beach. It was also located very close to Slea Head Drive, Dunquin Pier, and countless scenic views and landmarks. Annette was an absolutely fabulous host—the room was immaculate and she provided tea and fruit cakes upon arrival. Breakfast was delicious and she also provided us with a list of things to see and do nearby upon our departure. This was one of our favorite places we stayed on our almost two week trip, you will absolutely not regret a stay here.
United States of AmericaAnnette is a wonderful host! She was responsive to my questions before arrival, she was kind enough to let us store some things in her fridge and she made us feel right at home. The room was lovely, well appointed and comfortable. Bed was super comfy. And the breakfast was delicious (we had scrambled eggs and salmon, but there were several other choices that looked good). Annette also helped us with getting a reservation at a great place in Castlegregory that we would not have found on our own. We were only there for one night and wished we were staying longer!
United States of AmericaWe loved everything about our stay here. It was so welcoming, clean, and comfortable with beautifully decorated rooms. The bathroom was huge and our room even had a walk-in closet. The view was stunning as well. We had some delicious dinner in the local village of Castlegregory and also enjoyed an evening walk on the beach. The breakfast we were served was way above anything we expected and it started our day out perfectly.
United States of AmericaBeautiful setting, beautiful home. The breakfast was the BEST ever. The owner was also the amazing chef! some of the most creative and delicious presentations of food ever
