Although we are both locals from cork we really enjoyed our weekend break in garrison house. Loved having the whole fort to ourselves (highlight was seeing the locked gate from the inside!) and house itself was very well equipped and so central to everything. Incredibly quiet too which I didn’t expect , those fort walls must be VERY thick ! Would definitely recommend.
I stayed with a group of six travelers for three nights at Inchiquin House. This house has been thoughtfully renovated recently, with the addition of a fabulous kitchen. Although we did not cook any meals, I could see how that would be a wonderful thing to do with all of the materials available. The bedrooms were all very lovely, and we enjoyed having many bathrooms and showers to use. We also loved having information about the history of the house, and its renovation. This area in County Clare is full of incredible treasures. We spent one evening at a traditional session in Corofin, wh...more
very pleased with our stay at Galleyhead. Accommodation was to a high standard and the representative (Gerry) went above and beyond to make sure we had a pleasant stay. I cannot thank the Landmark Trust enough for a wonderful 4 day stay with my family.
We had a fantastic weekend staying at Schooner and Clipper. We rented the tow houses as a family holiday, and it worked out brilliantly. In typical Donegal style, we had nearly all seasons over the course of the few days, and all agreed it would be absolutely magical to be there during a storm! The houses are tastefully restored, and so comfortable. You can see the Trust went for style particularly in the large bathrooms, rather than trying to squeeze as many beds in as they could. Beautiful, unrivalled location, peaceful, everything you could need is supplied in the houses. Ger the house mana...more
nice quite spot near donegal town Some lovely restraunts in the town which were easily acsesed by taxi The cottage is very well mantained with a beautiful garden
We stayed here for 4 days. Really enjoyed it. Note that the website gives directions from Colooney, and not from the Dublin side so that caused us to get lost and delayed our arrival. Loads to do. Great places to visit and beaches to see plus great choice of restaurants in Sligo. Lissadell House was worth the €14 guided tour but note that this also allows entry to the walled garden and the Alpine Garden. Scones and brown bread were stale in the cafe. Birds of Flight in Ballymote was a good experience.
Salterbridge is in a very scenic area for day trips/walks and lodge is ideal for relaxing and just taking a break.
Enjoyed staying in the Parade House. Very nice accommodation. Everything we needed. Wonderful welcome from Liz.

It's not often that something exceeds expectations but this was one of them. The apartment is superbly located for exploring Dublin city centre, even on foot. Also, it's in a quiet area and provides free parking (which would be expensive otherwise). But the real attraction is the apartment itself which provides the authentic feel of times past but with all of the usual modern conveniences deftly incorporated. As a family of 5, we enjoyed every minute of our stay.
All well, preatty location and the apartment was confortable. The weather was non properly good but romantic
A once in a lifetime experience, lovely Wicklow Lighthouse is a perfect escape. Surrounded by nature and a walking distance (one hour hiking along the shore) to Wicklow town, short driving distances to beaches. The main attraction is the lighthouse itself, which is lovingly restored and furnished and provides stunning views to all sides. The property managers go out of their way to make you feel welcome and the encounters with locals were equally friendly and charming.
We took a short break in the middle of the summer in order to escape from Dublin and found exactly what we were looking for! This property is set in a most remote, quiet area. We had very fine weather and I loved sitting in the quiet surrounds of the garden most of all. The children enjoyed the playing in the courtyard and the lane running up the back of the house, and we enjoyed exploring the area around an abandoned school house up past the fields. There were two easy day trips we thoroughly enjoyed: the first was Erica's Fairy Forest in Cootehill, along with the surrounding walks. T...more
We had such a wonderful stay in such a beautifully unique location. The house is fully equipped and decorated really nicely, and the location and views are breathtaking. A wonderful trip to relax and unwind, we would love to come back! Thank you to Mary also for the very warm welcome, and for very kindly returning some pieces of jewellery to me that I accidentally left behind.
The location of the Townhouse is excellent with amenities right on its doorstep. Great to experience an old house in the heart of the vibrant city.
I love the location (close to Dublin) and on the same ground as the castle. The outside of the house is very stylish. But the interior lacks comfort and is not clean.
Chose this place to stay as part of our Honeymoon , was not disappointed in the least. Exactly what we wanted. I myself work in IT and to be totally cut off from TV, phone etc.. was perfect. Will be back to visit this place again . Theresa was so helpful and perfect in making sure you were shown around and shown everything. Brilliant !
Staying in Termon House was like stepping into one of our favouirte novels! The house is very old and the history in the walls and surrounds, is unchanged. We had a mixed bag of weather, so when the sun shone we walked on the rocks near the house and hit the sandy strand for a swim, which is in walking distance. We also easily walked up to the signal tower. When it rained, we didn't mind having an excuse to stay inside the cozy house and play games and read our books, and we enjoyed the books in the library. The house is warm and the beds are comfortable. The children found Termon House...more
Liked the accommodation but a bit noisy at night with people congregating on the wall opposite late at night. However, perfect commuting to Dublin.
Excellent location on the doorstep of castletown house . Lovely grounds and walks.. Beautiful house its like stepping back in time but with all the mod cons.
