Aherlow Valley Hideaway

spacious. there were only two of us, but for a family or group of four, it was a large property

no full length mirror. I can imagine that this property is regularly booked for the wedding venue at Aherlow House Hotel. there is no full length mirror anywhere, and applying make up might be challenging too. The heating was a little too warm for us and coming on too late in the morning. we did not wish to investigate and change it, so we lived with it.

Gerry left us plenty of useful things to use,the house itself was warm and extremely comfortable, each bedroom having its own bathroom,very quiet surroundings,also Bansha down the road{6km} has the cheapest fuel we've seen in a long time,eur1.59.9. all good.

nothing

It is a spacious and well-laid out house in a beautiful setting.

There were several problems with our visit. We had booked for two nights but left after the first night. The primary issue was that we could not get the heat to work so it was cold all night. I messaged the owner shortly after arriving and again the next morning but he did not respond. He claims he never got the messages but booking,com confirmed that they had been sent and didn't know why he said he didn't get them. The second issue was that the linens on one of the beds had a very strong perfume smell. My brother could not tolerate it so he tried to sleep on the couch. Since there was no heat in the house it was too cold and he ended up going to the car. There are two other less serious but annoying issues. In one of the showers the water would not stay on unless I held the button in, which made if difficult to soap up. The other issue is that the toilets would not flush solid waste unless we added a few liters of water to the tanks.

spacious and well appointed

no taxi service so nominated driver essential
