We stayed at Old Milvertin last year just before Christmas. We loved it so much then that we booked straight away to return over this Christmas. It was really lovely to be back there and the location was excellent once again. We were just around the corner from all the amenities, which we appreciated them being on hand. Also you feel as though you are in your own little Christmas village which is idyllic. We love the fact that you can go on the many glorious dog walks and take in the fabulous scenery. It truly was a relaxing holiday away from the chaos of Christmas. Most importantly though the owners go that extra mile to make your stay extra special, including a much appreciated welcome pack full of goodies. We would definitely be returning, highly recommended and gave it 5 stars.
