An earlier review was correct in saying that this is not a 5-star hotel. It is SO VERY MUCH more than that--it is the UNIQUE opportunity to stay in the manor home of an ancient Irish family, surrounded by and immersed in their history. The bedroom and ensuite bathroom are lovely, but I'm a sucker for heated towel racks and 14-foot ceilings! Welcoming host and hostess, delicious breakfast, guided tour, fire in the fireplace, and several affectionate dogs rounded out the experience. We highly recommended staying with Nicola.
