John was a gracious host that communicated with us quickly and clearly when needed. This old peculiar home had some great perks. It felt like camping out at an old cottage, which provided quite the relaxing experience. The small touches, like fresh cut roses in some rooms, made us all feel so welcome. The gardens were beautiful and location in the countryside made our stay everything we hoped for with our first visit to Ireland. I recommend this home to those that are okay with rustic cottage experiences and enjoy the serenity the country provides.
