Alison and her husband were extremely welcoming upon arrival and Alison was very easy to get into contact with leading up to our stay. Staying at Alison's place was kind of a last minute change of plans from staying at a nearby hotel because she had a washer/dryer in the apartment for us to use. While it may have been a last minute plan, it turned out to be one of the best places we stayed at during our Ireland vacation. The apartment was extremely clean and spacious. I honestly don't think the photographs of Alison's place on the website accurately represent how lovely her place truly is. Alison showed us around her and her husbands farm where my wife and I were able to meet several of their sheep, dogs, and cats. If we ever pass though the Sligo area again we will be hoping we are able to book another stay with Alison.
