Brigitte was an energetic host and was very keen on welcoming us to her apartment. We opted to have the farm-to-fork dinner (and breakfast!) and enjoyed the food heartily. Brigitte was happy to chat with us throughout, but also willing to leave us in the candle-lit dining area. We learned about the Irish school system and about government reforestation policies. We were lucky enough to meet Nibbles the goat in the morning, and Brigitte cooked a lovely breakfast before we had to be on our way.
The apartment itself is recently built and very sturdy, with heated tile floors throughout. The bed creaked a little bit and we could (as other reviewers mentioned) hear the daily goings on through the door that connects the apartment and the main house. It was no problem.
The location is convenient to the lovely beach at Doonbeg, which we found beautiful even in a dense fog. Don't miss it!
