"Exceptional"

10.0

Kind host, beautiful animals and land. A lovely addition with the cute coffee van in the morning and seating outside to chat with other guests too. As we had the car it was a perfect location to stay to visit a music festival Feile Vegan in Lisvardagh House nearby as it is a location suitable for car only. Already telling others about this accommodation for next year's festival as it was so convenient (6 minute drive) The room and bathroom were clean and nice. There is a kettle and coffee maker available to guests and it was a lovely place to unwind and reset as well as have the chats. I recommend coming with a 5 litre of water as it's room only and it is a remote location but Carlow town is not too far away by car and a Lidl.

Sorry I forgot to mention that the bathroom door might need altering if wd40 doesn't work as it's very loud making it hard not to disturb others at nighttime.

"Bucolica atmosfera"

9.0

Cottage immerso nel cuore della campagna Irlandese. Ci sono tanti animali da allevamento e questo da un bel senso di pace. La titolare molto gentile e ci ha anche consegnato bene per la cena. A disposizione gratuita tè e caffè con qualche biscotto

Avremmo preferito, il box doccia alla vasca e consigliamo di tenere a disposizione anche qualche presa elettrica europea.

"Passable"

5.0

The rooms were big.

The out doors were a mess for an accommodation which is quite expensive we were all a bit disappointed. What we got we would expect budget accommodation we would be ok with. The room freshener is way over powering i had to remove from our room our friends did as well. Subtle is better
