I'm not even sure where to start. Brian's home is beautiful. And I dont use the word "home" lightly. From the minute we drove down the lane and walked through the door, this place felt like home. We were welcomed by Bernie, the owners mother at nearly 1am, due to travel delays. She was standing in the rain under an umbrella with our key and a smile. While we certainly would have understood a short welcome, we got anything but. Bernie took the time to show us every room and amenity.
Me and my (now) wife were getting married the week we were there and she didn't have a dress yet because she wanted to buy one in Ireland. She asked Bernie if she could recommend a local shop to try. She did, but the next day was at our door with a dress in hand that she thought would work and it did. If this is not "above and beyond", I don't know how else to explain it. On our wedding night after I the ceremony, Bernie and Jim knocked on our door with gifts in hand and congratulations.
If you are looking for a place that feels like home, has amazing amenities, friendly hosts, in some of the most beautiful surroundings imaginable, then this is the place for you. Thank you Brian, Bernie and Jim. If I had the option of a ten star review it still wouldn't do it justice. We will be eternally grateful
