The property was in the middle of nature, a great base for walks or an adventure across the river. The host is very helpful and could make our stay very special :) Unfortunately, we only discovered this beautiful accommodation at the end of our holiday and therefore could only stay one night. We would like to have stayed a bit longer I will definitely come back on my next vacation to Ireland!
