We had a fabulous time in Grandads house. Martina was a great host who shared a wealth of information on the area in advance of our arrival. The house was very clean, spacious and had toys for kids (and Martina dropped us additional footballs and basketball once she met the children and discovered their interests!!). Martina had a food welcome pack for us and some supplies in case we forgot anything!! To access Carlingford and other local amenities you do need to drive. Overall a great stay and one to be recommended.
