Our family of 9, plus dog, spent a wonderful week in this amazing house. The house is really luxurious with incredible views and a lovely garden. The hot tub was a real hit, as was the pool table. Thoroughly recommend!

We were a large family group of three generations +2 small dogs and had the pleasure of staying in Ireland yard the last week of May. There was so much space and the views were incredible.. there were too many good things to mention in this review but all of the bathrooms had plenty of hot water. All immaculately finished with all modern fixtures and fittings as was the kitchen..The beds were all super comfy, plenty of towels a fantastic utility room for the wet days that we encountered so that we could dry our clothes and the games room was a huge hit with the children as were some of the books that were left in the drawers in the bedroom for reading. So many little finishing touches that made this a lovely week away with the family.We loved it,.Any queries were quickly answered. A lovely home from home.
