Tess and Gary were helpful in getting us all the necessary information beforehand, and they also greeted us kindly and left us an excellent selection of foods and snacks upon arrival. During our stay, they were always friendly and helpful, even going as far as leaving us some carrots so our two daughters could fed them to the donkeys on the property!

The converted barn is beautiful inside and has a very nice layout. The kitchen too was excellent, and everything worked well when we made a few meals. For those seeking peace and quiet, the location is absolutely perfect. Because the location is a little remote, there isn't as much to do there as there might be in some places, so make sure to bring a good book and be prepared to relax and unwind.

I think the only difficulty we had during our stay was that our cell service worked minimally, if at all, in the rural location, and then the wifi signal wasn't very strong in the house. It worked solidly only by one window, and so if we weren't standing there, the signal wouldn't really work for us.

Aside from that, though, our visit was great. We walked to a neighborhood spring-fed well and our daughters played in the stream. We played with the friendly dogs on the property and fed the donkeys. We also drove to a nearby village to have a great lunch and grab some groceries to cook back at the house. All in all, it was a welcome and peaceful break in our Ireland vacation.
