Tom’s place is a little out of town, but wonderfully quiet & tranquil. It’s a great base to explore the Midlands from, & the township of Birr has everything you could need, including some nice pubs, & a visit to the castle is a must. The apartment itself was perfect for 2 couples, & Tom is a wonderful host- yesterday the power was off for line work & Tom made us dinner on the bbq, & bought us ice for our drinks, we felt very welcome & very well cared for. Thank you Tom, Marie & family. Xxx
