    Amazing stay – highly recommended! Our stay at this place was absolutely fantastic! The apartment was very spacious, impeccably clean, and equipped with everything we needed – a fridge, stove, dishwasher, and more. It felt like a home away from home. The highlight of our stay was the wonderful host. She was incredibly kind and helpful, giving us great advice on the best hiking trails in the area. On top of that, her breakfasts were simply delicious! You can truly feel how much she cares about her guests.

    Amazing location and surroundings, as well as spotless house and charming owner. Freshly baked, homemade scones for breakfast, next to a crackling stove and views of the surrounding forest. For Irish standards, one of the best value-for-money choices.

    There was nothing that could be bettered.

    Breakfast was not part of the deal but the proprietor made provision anyway. This was very much appreciated, and the home made scones were delicious. Lovely room in a beautiful house, that was in a wonderful woodland location.

    It is located in a more remote area but that was to be expected as it is located in Wicklow.

    Suzanne was a wonderful host! She is very friendly and goes out of her way to make you as comfortable as possible. The bed was very comfortable. Suzanne made delicious scones, brown bread and quiche for breakfast as well as providing fresh fruits and cereals.

    The was a small eyesore which was the neighboring property who has farm epuipment visable on the driveway that approaches this property.

    The location was perfect, very close to rhe national park, the property was beautiful with flowers and garden, the room was elegantly decorated with a spa type atmosphere and the breakfast was outstanding with homemade breads, scones, yogurt and all the Irish traditiions. The best part was the hostess who treated us like family and with such hospitality that we will go out of our way to stay here again!

    No Complaints

    The host Susan went above and beyond. She was amazing with recommendations for local happenings, pubs to try and dining. She even made reservations for us for dinner. The place was beautiful and had everything we could possible use. Our only regret is not having more time there. We only had a 1 night reservation as it was our last night in Ireland. Wish we could have stayed more than one night.

    Nothing to dislike, except we had to leave.

    Susanne made us very welcome, and our stay was Exceptional , with quiet room. Bed was very comfortable, good in room facilities, and excellent shower. In addition, the use of good lounge and kitchen was provided. Breakfast was varied and delicious, and scones were scrumptious. Would highly recommend.

    There is no need for me to repeat what the other reviewers already shared about house, view, location, and food. I want to share with you that I had a great chat with Suzanne. I talked to her for hours on my day of arrival and another hour the next morning over the scones and bread she made. :) When I travel, sometimes I find a place breathtaking. Other times I am taken with people I met along the way. This time is both.
