Carole & Kevin’s Williamstadt House Gamekeeper's Cottage is truly special, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. They both were very welcoming when we arrived. They left us their apple juice pressed from apples from their orchard, fresh flowers, and had lit the stove for us and provided turf and wood for our use during the stay.
The cottage is beautiful, comfortable and homely, spotlessly clean with mod cons. Their cottage is located in a perfect spot, off the beaten path, to explore Lough Derg and surrounds. The lough, Williamstadt Quay, is a few minutes walk down the road with amazing views.
Carole & Kevin were wonderful hosts and shared stories and history of Williamstadt House. Carole & Kevin’s cottage is a exceptional place with a unique history. We look forward to coming back. A few pints in the Nightengale bar down the road is also recommended to hear a Trad session on a Friday night and friendly place to meet a few locals.
In short, if you are considering a visit to this area of Ireland, you would be crazy not to come to this friendly and unspoilt scenic area, and would be missing a precious experience by not booking the Gamekeeper’s Cottage.
