We stayed in Colin's house for a month and overall experience was great! The house and the neighborhood were great, but the best of all were our hosts. Colin and Lhyne were very welcoming and kind, making us feel like we were in our own home. Colin is very helpful and Lhyne is so cheerful! We are so glad we had a chance to know them. They even prepared Shepherd's Pie for us! DELICIOUS!
The room in which we stayed was in the attic and it was nice and cozy. There were enough drawers and hangers for all our stuff. Also, there is a central heating system so it was always nice and warm. Best thing about this room are roof windows so you can sleep under the stars if there are no clouds. There is a private toilet in the room, and if you want to take a shower you can do it in a bathroom downstairs. We could also use the kitchen whenever we wanted to. The neighborhood is sooo nice with a lot of parks and cute little houses. There are stores, pubs and restaurants inside 10 min of walking. Bus station is near and the drive to the city center takes about 20 min if you avoid rush hours.
We decided to stay in Ireland for a longer period, and Colin's and Lhyne's home was a great starting point. We believe we made new Irish friends and we would recommend them to anyone!
