I cannot express how grateful we were to stay here! The staff was absolutely amazing. When our car got a flat over an hour away, Scott rang a taxi company to come rescue us. He was in constant contact with me to ensure our safety. The room was so lovely and cozy and they even left little chocolates beside the bed. The pizzeria downstairs made some wonderful drinks to help lift my spirits after a very long and terrible day. The hotel is located within walking distance to some beautiful attractions and a great park my 4 year old enjoyed. I wish we were able to stay longer. Best stay we had in Ireland!
