Amazing House, Amazing Location, Amazing Host!
I organised for our group of 15 to stay at Caroline’s house for a weekend and we had the best time.
This is a deceptively big house! When I first pulled into the driveway I thought it might not be big enough for 15, but as soon as I got in and walked about I was shocked at how much space there was - it could easily host 20 people. The living area is great and comfortably seats everyone. Adjoined to the living area is a rear conservatory which is lovely and bright and enjoys amazing views of the mountain overlooking Carlingford.
The garden is massive and perfect for entertaining and barbecues. It has a large grass area and a good sized paved area with 2 barbecues, 2 large picnic tables, a woodburner and lots of chairs. It really is a great space. We spent a lot of time there during the day listening to music, drinking and having a barbecue and at night it was great to sit out and have the woodburner going.
There are so many beds in this house I nearly lost count! There are several private bedrooms on the ground floor with most having a double and a single bed in them. There are also 2 large bedrooms upstairs with about 5 beds in each room but still with plenty of space. All the beds were comfy and clean and everyone got a good nights sleep.
The house is perfectly located. It is only a 5-10 minute walk into the town and it has quite breathtaking surroundings - the view from the back garden is amazing. In addition to this the house is very private with only one neighbour who is at a safe enough distance that you can sit outside and make a bit of noise.
Caroline is a lovely host. She is very affable and makes you feel so welcome. To Caroline’s credit, even after a few household items were damaged during our stay, she remained understanding and calm.
I would recommend this house to anyone. The house is perfect and Caroline is such a good host. Everyone in our group thought the house was amazing and they all had a great time. We wish we could stay there every weekend!
