Exactly as was pictured and described. It’s a perfect place for a single traveller, and I would easily go back if I needed. You’re in a great location away from the hustle of the city, but still within proximity to SO much to do. Within the week, I had hiked 102km - I was just too far from the SW mountains to continue.
The road is loud but not terribly busy so it might help to have earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. It also gets a little chilly at night as it’s pretty draughty. The heater works SUPER well and you can get it nice and toasty with no hassle.
The bed was nice and comfy, with the duvet not being too hot, and the room got quite dark at night. You get morning light so it’s easy to wake up and get on with your day. :)
The kitchen is well outfitted (would be nice to have a few more bowls and a flipper for the frying pan) but you make do if you go alone. Be prepared to be in each other’s space if you do travel here with another person. The bathroom is small and so is the shower (the whole thing is just a well contained little apartment) but just take that into consideration if you’re not travelling alone.
PLENTY of parking space right beside the door.
No complaints - Ciara, her family, and the neighbours were all very friendly and polite. Don’t forget to wave if you pass them on the road. :) thank you, Ciara! Ireland was lovely. Can’t wait to visit again and see even more. Cheers!
