John and Caroline we're welcoming from the moment Caroline opened the door to greet me, to when when John hugged me goodbye after driving me to the airport (very early!). Their house is warm and inviting, and they made every effort to keep it that way- it was spotless and the bedroom was extremely comfortable. They consistently offered tea/coffee, left out a nice breakfast, and made me feel as if their space was my space. Their dog JD is so sweet as well! I had a simply lovely time staying with them, and would do so again in a heartbeat if I am lucky enough to travel back to Ireland!
