We loved Mark's place, it's steeped in history and charm. Set in a beautiful peaceful location with loads to explore, sadly we didn't have time. Mark is incredibly hospitable, offering us food, wine, amenities and lifts into Limerick. He is really friendly, he knows about the history of the place and the local area and gave us great recommendations! He was really chilled about what time we checked in. Lovely hot shower. Friendly dog Noah! Beautiful gardens. Hidden treasures on the land waiting to be discovered! Look forward to coming back
