Just after finishing six fantastic nights at Monavaud lodge and we really did not want to leave!! The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you possibly need if you want to dine-in at any stage during your stay. John’s knowledge of the local area for restaurants, coffee shops and things to do and see is unbelievably invaluable. Stradbally village and Cove is a lovely spot to base yourself to tour the Copper Coast and beyond. Treat yourself and just book it .Outstanding host and property.
