- Nate (1/5): Rude, insulting, absent hosts. - Nothing It is a rundown farmhouse with zero charm.
Nobody was there when I tried to check- in.
I was not able to check-in
When I requested a refund as a result, the staff was extraordinarily rude. Messages with horrible grammar and rude accusations insinuating I was stupid were sent my way. Absolutely do not book this terrible place.

Our rental car broke down and they were right there to help us in whatever way we needed. They even helped us contact Nevada, a person that was able to drive us to our next destination, since no Uber or taxis were available because of a big game. Thank you all of you for making our stay in Ireland so pleasurable and unforgettable!!!

- Teresa (9/5): Superb - Beautiful house lovely view of the lake, extremely comfortable beds, nicely decorated rooms. Hosts were lovely people very friendly. Breakfast was great. The only problem was finding the house using booking com. The directions need to be clearer and easier to find on the site. The directions to the house on the booking. Com site did not explain how far off the road the house is. During the day we got there just about but getting back after dark, the sat nav couldn't find the house and then the signal went so we were really lost. I managed to get a call to John the host and told him last place the sat nav showed before it went down. He went out looking for us and found us somehow.
- Maria (10/5): Great stay - Lovely welcoming people and a fantastic location, just a few mins outside of Roscommon town.
- Robyn (10/5): Best bed in Ireland! - The view, the bed , the breakfast, the hosts, the furnishings. This place is just lovely with fabulous hosts. Very scenic. Huge breakfast. Nothing
