The Herd House is a magical place. Out in the country, it can get almost perfectly silent, other than an occasional cow chiming in. On a clear night, the stars can't be beat. Truly spectacular. During the colder days of our stay, we had to build a fire to heat up the house. While it took a couple tries for us to master, it ended up being one of our favorite parts of the experience. Clean, spacious, and a perfect place to slow down. We loved every minute at this place. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a rural Irish getaway.
