No smoking or naked flames in the house or within close proximity of the cottage, this is a thatch cottage and we have to adhere to very strict rules for our insurance.

No Trestrial TV or internet. Large selection of DVDs is available.

Please be aware, this is our family cottage and additional work is on going to it's adjacent out buildings. Our aim is to restore the thatch outhouse to its original glory. All monies raised from your stay will go towards the running, maintenance, and re-generation of this part of Irish History.

Unfortunately, due to some experience of guests damaging the cottage we have had to ask for a deposit. As you will see from our prices that a stay at the cottage is extremely good value so we hope you appreciate and understand why we ask for this.
