It was rustic and quaint in all the right ways. We very much enjoyed our stay in this historic building, lovingly preserved by the owners. Its sturdy stone walls kept us safe and warm during Storm Barra while I was in Ireland on a business trip. It was a good location, near enough to Carlow and about an hour from Dublin. The views from the back windows were incredible and the stars at night were the most beautiful I've ever seen. It was also very, very quiet, which is exactly what I wanted. There were basic provisions left for us. Overall, we loved our stay there and would be happy to stay again!
