I cannot say enough good things about our stay here. I was traveling with five other people (family and friends). We arrived to a clean house with homemade scones waiting for us which were delicious! The house was quite spacious and held all six of us comfortably, we loved gathering in the living room in the evenings and working on crossword puzzles in a book left for visitors. The town is nearby but the actual house and property surrounding it is private. We made day trips and had James and Maria's house as our base. We had a day in Cork with Blarney Castle, a day at the Cliffs of Moher, and our final day was spent in Adare upon Maria's suggestion and we all had a wonderful time. We would love to come back again!
