BOOK THIS HOME, Don't hesitate, stop looking for anything better, this home will be hard to beat, if you are lucky enough to get the date you require, book it, it's an absolute gem. Andrew is a fantastic host, the communication is excellent, the house is amazing, spacious, clean and comfortable,and so easy to relax in, the open plan kitchen is fantastic for larger groups, and the decor around the whole house and the gardens also is amazing, such lovely unique pieces dotted around the home, the bedrooms are much bigger than expected, really the photos of this house are great but the home is even better in real life. If you have kids the "secret room" is brilliant a huge hit with the kids, and the back garden is great to let the kids out to play in, The house manual is unreal, a fountain of knowledge, there has been a lot of work and thought gone into it, and the humour in parts is very good. The email Andrew sent prior to us checking in was so good, he goes way beyond to ensure there is a hassle free check in. The views from the skylights are fab, you literally wake up to the lighthouse every morning you open the blinds, it's a lovely walk to the light house when you turn left out of the drive way and and even nicer walk to the right down to the Slade (harbour). The home is situated ideally to explore the peninsula, The Light House Tour is a must , staff are so friendly and were fantastic with th kids, and some of us braved the Loftus Hall tour, this is not to be missed, we were more interested in the history of the house then the haunted part, and we were not disappointed, the staff there are fantastic as well and everything is very reasonably priced. We ate in Templers Inn 2 out of our 3 nights and got a take away on the last night from Fethard on sea which is only a 10 minute drive (the menus were in the house manual, as are the menus for the local restaurant, Andrew really has put a lot of work into making the stay as homely as possible) Thank you so much for having us, we had a fantastic stay and recommend this home 100%.
