Mary met us and greeted us with a very friendly smile and a cheerful voice all round. The place is wonderful - ideal for couples. A great big converted barn in the middle of nowhere, yet close enough to Waterford to walk in, the Zen house is definitely Zen. There's all kinds of interesting places near by - from an abandoned pub to an old church remains. Mary gave us a lift a couple of times when it was raining, for which we were very thankful, and both her and her daughter gave us some good recommendations on places to go! We certainly felt at home!
