What a wonderful stay mum and I had with Katherine in her beautiful home! Our hostess could not have been more welcoming or accommodating - our room was beautiful, our breakfast was delicious, we even had fresh posies picked that morning on the dresser! Such a special experience to stay in a house that is central to and such an integral part of Mount Usher, its gardens and its history. What a joy - for two gardeners who have been here so many times before - to fall asleep to the sound of the Vartry River flowing past, how heavenly to wake up to that view, the thrill of being able to explore the gardens when no-one else was there. Katherine treated us like old friends she had known for years and our experience of the gardens had an intimacy this time that was truly special. We had such fun and Katherine's hospitality was second to none. Cannot recommend Mount Usher Airbnb highly enough. What a fabulous 50th birthday treat. We will definitely be back!
