The pictures don't do it justice. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, a view of the magical hills of Ireland we immediately felt at home. There was an amazing welcome basket of local food awaiting us in the light, fully appointed kitchen. The bed and living room furniture were very comfortable and everything spotless. Patio with sliding doors and apple, pear and plum trees right there along with visits from chickens too. (They were a hoot!) In addition to being a wonderful space, Annette, the host, made everything even better. She responded to all communication prior to and during our stay and gave us excellent information about hikes, restaurants and places to see. Her love and knowledge of her home and county made her an excellent guide. We plan on returning and next time want to stay longer! ##### amy g.

The place is very quiet and super green and the barn and the attached terrace is very private - except for the little white wagtail visiting every now and then. The barn has everything you need and a little extra to have a very comfortable stay. Toaster, coffee machine, a comfy fireplace, apple TV. It is very clean as well.It is a little drive away from town but thats what makes it so nice. Everyhing you might need is still within reach - such as the best supermarket we've come across: Supervalu in Clonakilty. The host was so kind and generous with her tips - we could have easily spend 2 weeks in the region without getting bored. ##### Ilse B.
