Our stay at Declan and Marie's home was our favourite. Declan is amicable, witty, helpful, respectful and generous. When we arrived, Declan greeted us outside, helped us with our heavy bags and immediately offered us some tea and delicious cake that Marie had baked (! (She was initially away, so we only met her the morning we checked out, but would have loved to get to know her too.) The room is spacious, decorated, warm and well equipped: Cupboard for clothes, drinking water, extra toiletries, tea and coffee with cookies in room, a TV with plenty DVDs to choose from etc). There was also a flip file with typed out lists of activities/suggestions and tripadvisor top rated restaurants. The bed was wonderfully comfortable and the area was so quite, we slept like babies! The bathroom is beautifully decorated, with extra towels, toiletries and hairdryer. Their home is about 15 minutes drive from the city centre if we remember correctly, but was nice to get out to a more peaceful and quite area. They provided us with a luxuries continental breakfast with a fruit salad (an assortment of berries and other fruit), different types of baked breads and jams, gourmet yoghurts, cereals/muesli, filter coffee, tea or juice. Declan was even kind enough to offer us chocolate they had won, and to take the tulips he had bought, with us on our trip just because I had said they were my favourite flowers! Declan has a warm heart and we felt like we were visiting family! Would highly recommend! 10/10!!!
