Family & Pet Friendly House Situated On A Working Hillside Sheep Farm

WOW! the VIEW! No photograph does it justice. Beautifully clean house, in a beautiful place. We were there mid winter for 10 days in January! Lovely hosts checking in on us. Internet fine to watch Netflix. I had worried about the cold as I live in Australia, but we were warm enough by the fire, nice and cosy in the sitting room, with extra blankets on the sofa. I would recommend leaving the shower on eco to get a constant temperature, or use the other shower with less power but very hot. The village is a very short drive away, with a few great places to eat even mid winter - and live music at the pub. Go to the Lazy cat cafe for a wonderful coffee, walk on beaches close by, have a laugh in the pub listening to irish music on a sunday, and gaze and gaze at the view from a sunny armchair at the house! Heaven!

Comfortable. Friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful location.

Mike and Gillian’s cottage was lovely and homey. We stayed there 10 days and even though the weather was poor and neither me nor my husband were feeling very well (we had to go to the doctor in town to get antibiotics eventually) we rested and recuperated - sitting in the sunroom looking out at the beautiful scenery was perfect for both body and soul. By the time we left there we were raring to go on the next part of our trip. The hosts were super responsive to all our needs. The sheep were calming to look at. The town had good restaurants and stores. There was even an Aldi’s in town. The cottage was close to town but far enough away to feel you were in the country. This is a spectacular part of Ireland and we were very pleased that we chose this place. Thanks to the O’Connor’s!

Lovely property

Gillian & Mike are amazing hosts - always available, friendly, helpful - more like family than hosts! This house is one of 4 on the property (including Gillian & Mike’s own home) but you are very far apart with your own yard and space so it’s very private. Waking up to stunning views of the ocean, hillside, castle/ring fort and of course sheep made for a picturesque holiday that we’ll never forget. It’s an older home, but been kept up very well. Plenty of space for a family and room to work. Wifi was good enough for video conferences & streaming movies. Washer and Drier in the house, as well as a drying line outside, made laundry easy. The property is nonsmoking which was great - no horrible stall smoke smell lingering about. Gillian & Mike - their whole family actually, really made our holiday perfect, you won’t find better hosts!!!

We have had wonderfull week in this cosy cottage. The view is stuning, the house is big enogh for a family or two cuoples. Check in/out process is very easy. Landlord is very freandly and always ready to help. We enjoyed every minute in the house.

We very much enjoyed staying in the cottage of Gillian and Mike. The cottage provided everything we needed for a relaxing week as a family and served as a base for exploring the area.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful location. Magnificant views. Very nice host.

We really enjoyed this gorgeous part of our country. And we were lucky with the weather. The views from the house were stunning and Gillian was very nice and helpful.

Gillian and Mike were lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome yet we had our privacy. We loved our 2 week stay and didn’t need to travel far to enjoy our day. Coming home to the house perched on the hill with stunning views always amazed us. Very comfortable beds and a large living room couch to enjoy tv together. A super holiday to cherish.
