We had a fantastic experience staying in Cregg Castle. The description given by Alan and other reviewers is spot on (make sure you read it all, though), we found it to be exactly what we expected and hoped.

I guess the word "experience" is really what is important here. This is not a place like any other, which you use as a base to explore other areas (although you can also do that of course). This is a place that is worth seeing and experiencing on its own; make sure you give it enough time!

A special mention goes to Alan himself. He is a fantastic guy to meet and talk with, and he really goes out of his way to help, advise and make the stay as enjoyable as possible. He even spent a whole morning out and about on his domain with us (in bad weather!) showing us around, checking up on his poneys, even giving a short poney ride to my children!

Thanks Alan, you're brilliant!
