Goggins Cottage was amazing. It is beautifully maintained and a joy to look at. The local area was lovely with everything in full bloom. We lay in bed each morning with the window open listening to the bird song. The local people were so friendly with many great stories about Jack Goggins. Many thanks also to Maureen for her hospitality and lovely brown bread.
if you need to get away from it all and listen to quietness , nature , and still ness but yet enjoy and marinate yourself in the enjoyment of life , this is the place to go , We are a group of 10 that have been coming here for the past 4 years and each year it gets better , we take the time to go for walks and chat over a glass of wine and slow time down completely , its well worth the visit to do these things to jump off the treadmill of city life and chill
Amazing views - very relaxing. Loved the switch off. Remote feeling, but villages and amenities not to far away and only 20 mins from Clonakilty. Local pub has take away pizzas.
We stayed for a week at Garrison House in June 2025 while attending a conference at UCC. The location is super convenient for the town centre and, for us, also for UCC. The house is right within Elizabeth Fort in a wonderful setting. It is cosy, clean and furnished with all one might need also for a prolonged stay. The bathroom is large with a modern shower. The washbasin has two separate taps for cold and hot water but this is part of the place charm. There is also a backyard with a table and chairs. The place is very quiet even when the fort is open for visits. We found everything in perfect...more
Beautiful and thoughtfully restored cottage, very relaxing and comfortable. Well-equipped. Good communication from Theresa.
We had a lovely time at the EF Parade House. It was a very cool experience to stay in a historic place and we felt very special getting to have the fort to ourselves in the mornings and evenings. The house was a great mix of feeling like an old and authentic space while having modern comforts as well. Easy to communicate with the caretaker and everything went swimmingly!
What fun! My son and I had the opportunity to spend two nights in this historic lighthouse! The accommodations were comfortable and charming, and the setting was out of this world! We did a lot of hiking on the peninsula where the lighthouse is located, which was completely private. Quite literally, we saw maybe two other people during all of our walks. The lighthouse is also conveniently located too many interesting day hikes. The views in all directions are nearly endless.
If heaven exists it is St John’s point. Mary and Gerard gave us wonderful guidance and tips. The house and the area were amazing, so tranquil and yet dramatic.
We had 3 nights in this idyllic cottage by the river. It was so peaceful I have never slept as well. It was a great base to explore all that Sligo has to offer from great beaches to the Yeats trail. Highly recommend
Had a lovely few days in this cottage . Comfy bed , cosy lounge and a well equipped kitchen. Michelle was very welcoming and helpful .
Merrion Mews is a one-of-a-kind place that reflects all the wonder and timeless beauty of Ireland. From its musty horse stalls in the lower level to the skylights that provide natural light to the rooms, it's an unforgettable piece of living history. It has no TV, you can only reach it by a narrow, winding staircase, and there's nothing modern about it. But it is warm, cozy and utterly charming. It is located in the heart of Dublin, just a stone's throw from the government offices of the Taoiseach, and within easy walking distance of many pubs, parks and Grafton Street. There's even a private ...more
Again a wonderful stay - although we were not guests of the apartment he cared for, Gerald Butler took us up on the lighthouse which was very kind and generous! His and his lovely wife‘s presence always add so much to the lighthouse experience - thank you so much!
Excellent two night stay at the Railway Crossing cottage. Gerard the property manager was communicative and helpful. The cottage has everything you could possibly need from bedding, towels to a complete kitchen (and I mean complete!). It was rather cosy and provided a great base to explore the rest of the area and beyond. Really nice garden too and parking was easy.
Lands end in County Clare. The 19th century lighthouse keeper’s home with mod cons is a great place to chill out. It’s tastefully appointed, with marvelous views of the mouth of the Shannon and Atlantic Ocean. The house is ideal for families able to survive without TV and internet. The furnishings are in keeping with the era, as is the decor, but prepare yourself for closets that don’t completely close and sometimes funky drawers. Manager Mary Geaney is a wonderful host and full of good ideas about sights and activities in the area. There’s a cafe with very helpful staff a few steps away that ...more
We had a truly special stay at this beautifully preserved old lighthouse. The accommodation is full of character and charm — the bedrooms were absolutely pristine, like something out of a fairytale. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience, perfect for couples or a small family looking for something memorable. Be aware that there are quite a few stairs, so it’s not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. The kitchen is located at the very top of the lighthouse, and while it’s a great spot for views, the water pressure up there isn’t the best — probably best to plan light meals rather than anything...more
This was our fourth stay in 2 years and it never disappointing. We were looking forward to the newly refurbished bathroom but it's a very tight squeeze now which it wasn't before. We'll look forward to returning for 3 nights at the end of October. Thanks to Irish Landmark Trust and Breda for accommodating our very last minute booking.
Loved our stay in this sensitively restored 18th century house.Very comfortable beds and sitting areas ,kitchen facilities could be upgraded for ‘eating in “as nearby restaurants a distance away. Glorious beach and local pub within walking distance.
I stayed two nights and what I love most is the view from the windows...first of the small town and then of the lovely meadow-gardens of Castletown. And of course the reflective furniture and fittings in the old cottage...and yet with every modern day appliance for a comforting stay.
Communication with Theresa was great and we were met the the accommodation. A magnificent place to stay!
Used the property for a coming together of our dispersed family. Great time. Just perfect for us (five adults). Nice to walk straight out into the estate grounds for walks. Really enjoyed it. All was smooth and property very warm. Highly recommended.
