Karen was great. She had food available for us upon our arrival, gave us some information as to things to see in the area, and had firewood for us. The house was large and old. Heating is done 100% through the fireplace, so you must be comfortable using a fireplace if you want heat (It's cold in Ireland even in the summer). There is a store nearby where you can buy more firewood if you run out. Just so you know, there is no wifi at this house, but is at the castle which is about a 5 minute walk away. It's great for a quick check but not so great if you plan on having a working vacation. I would stay again.
