This is a special place indeed. We really loved our stay here in Fota. Jacqui, the house manager had everything gleaming and made us very welcome at the house. The house is very well equipped with all one could need. The house and the Fota estate is full of fascinating history. Being from nearby Cobh, I have been visiting Fota Gardens for decades and it will so lovely to be within the area for 3 whole days. There are fascinating books which detail the history of the Head Gardener’s house, the Estate owners and the people who worked on the Estate. I really enjoyed delving into the past...more
We stayed for two nights and loved the cosy thatched house. These houses were part of Irish heritage and it's great to see it brought back to life. Maureen is a wonderful host and looked after us very well. We enjoyed chatting with her.
Fabulous weekend with family in this atmospheric comfortable house. Very well equipped. Everyone had a great sleep. Farm Loop walk gives you a great view of the Burren landscape. Burren Perfumery is worth a visit for the cakes alone.
This was our second stay at Galley Head 2 and it was just a wonderful as the first visit. This time we got to witness two major storms, Austin and Boelo. The view of the turbulent seas from the kitchen window , combined with the sound of the wind, was awe inspiring. In between the storms we also enjoyed more walks around the beautiful countryside. Gerald was as helpful as ever and the house as welcoming as before. We hope to return again soon !
We had a great short stay here for a work trip Cork. Customer service was very helpful and friendly when I got in touch with a few questions. We were very comfortable and would definitely stay again- thank you!
The three of us felt immediately at home in this very lovely decorated house. Staying on the grounds of a fort is unique and we could reach everything of interest in cork city on foot. The place is very quiet during the night. A big thank you to Geraldine for everything. We wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation.
The Schooner Cottage was everything we expected and more. The attention to detail and the choice of furniture was in keeping with the character of the cottage. The Carnegie Library was a surprise as I have been a Carnegie Judge and didn’t know about this part of Andrew Carnegie’s legacy to provide books for Lighthouse Keepers. Just a few minor things that may need attention. The shower doesn’t drain away and could be a slip hazard. Also the double bed quilt was very thin and could do with replacing.
Very beautiful site and property, and really special experience. Also the location is superb and peaceful.
We had a very pleasant stay in the schoolhouse as a family of 4. The weather was cold and stormy but the house was warm and cosy with a toasty open fire to greet us. The house was immaculate and space was more generous than we expected. Upstairs we had a generous double bedroom with space for the cot and a full bathroom, downstairs a smaller double room and a shower room. The house while remote is very accessible and only a short spin into Sligo town. Beautifully restored and well equipped with books and games. Lorraine was lovely to deal with and was available to answer any questions. Thank y...more
We loved our stay at Killee Cottage! Theresa was very welcoming and always just a call away. We were in awe of the beauty of the place. All the little details in the house made it so special and were the aesthetic that we had imagined in the cottage. My husband and I always take a looong time to find special accommodations that feel magical and fitting to us and it didn’t disappoint in any way. Reading, knitting and baking in there was a dream come true for me. It was also nice to read in the guest book who was there before us!
A truly special place! The clifftop setting overlooking the Atlantic is breathtaking, especially at night when the lighthouse beam sweeps across the sea. The cottage was cosy, lovingly furnished and spotlessly clean. You can feel the history of the house without missing out on comfort. Pure peace, nature and open space, perfect for switching off. Many thanks to the Irish Landmark Trust team for looking after us so well. We’d love to come back!
We spent a few days in this beautiful House near Cappoquin. Beautifully restored and very warm, welcoming and cosy Everything we needed there Lovely surroundings- overlooking the black water river and a nice little walk on the doorstep Close to Dungarvan- with lots of lovely walks, shops restaurants pubs Highly recommend this lovely place
A little piece of history in a great central Dublin location! Everything was perfect and we could easily walk to restaurants, shops and historic places. Highly recommended.
This was my and my wife's second visit but this time we brought the rest of the family. All loved it: a chance to unwind together playing board games, card games, reading and making jigsaw puzzles. No tech required. I describ e my experience as doing little but getting fat on great food! Mary the housekeeper was great made sure we knew the set up and how to use the kitchen appliances etc. she was available when needed her but otherwise we did not see her until we were leaving - all agreed we wanted to stay. Youngest has already asked 'when can we go again?'
This is a real step back in time to a great cottage in a wonderful part of County Donegal. Only downside was that there were no trains to open the gate for!
A gorgeous property with such a feeling of history. Very comfortable with everything we needed. In a beautiful garden setting with coffee/ lunch venue nearby. Thoroughly recommended for a historic stay.
We are a family of 4 ( 13 year old and 10 year ) and this was a perfect location to spend some time together away from the busy world. The pictures do not do justice to what it feels like to stay somewhere like this. Our first night was clear and calm with a full moon and just before bed we walked down to the operational lighthouse. As we live in a city, to have such an experience, with little light polution , was truly memorable. The 2nd night , the sound of the howling wind and the rain battering off the windows , made for an equally memorable time. Our walk during the day , including seein...more
What an incredible house in the most idyllic location! We loved the views and the remoteness of the house, whilst still being very accessible by car and close to Dungloe town. The options for beautiful walks are endless, the food is in pins and restaurants is delicious and the people are very friendly. The house has a fascinating history and is beautifully restored. Would thoroughly recommend a stay there!
I enjoyed my stay in the house It was close to Celebridge town and close to my friends I would book it again but at the moment I have not planned for next year yet It would be nice if there a tv in the house
Great bit of history and very enjoyable stay. stone walls and unique windows were excellent. Would recommend Thanks Brian
Beautiful peaceful house set in the most beautiful park. House was warm, relaxing and was perfect for us. Lorraine explained everything and was so welcoming. Full equipped, fire was set and spotlessly clean.
