We had a wonderful stay at Mark's charming historical property of Parteen a Lax . The place exudes character and history, with Mark's restoration efforts clearly visible, preserving its unique charm while ensuring modern comfort. All facilities catered perfectly to daily needs, but what truly stood out was the incredible hospitality—Mark's warmth and attentiveness made the experience feel like a 7-star stay. If you're looking for a cozy, authentic experience with unbeatable hospitality, this is the place to book and be part of history of Ireland.
