Our Bean an tí was very friendly, generous and showed great hospitality. She did her utmost to keep us and her other guests happy and invests lots of time and money to make and keep the house a welcoming place with comfy places where we could spend the time while we stayed. She made recommendations for places and restaurants to visit which was very helpful. She made us feel at home, almost like being part of her family. We also enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the ocean view from one of the living rooms and the deck. It is only a short walk to the shore btw. We will be back!

Our stay was beyond our expectations. Caroline greeted us with scones and tea, showed us our beautiful room, and gave us some great suggestions about where to go and where to eat( the restaurant we actually went to was a real geam). She and her husband prepared an excellent and lovely Irish breakfast, with eggs, smoked salmon, bread with butter and jam and scones. On our last morning we were leaving really early, but Caroline still cooked us some amazing pancakes. Caroline's house is really beautiful and our room was as well. It was really clean and quiet. Caroline really took care of us and made us feel at home. I strongly recommend It!
