After a very long drive from Dublin, we had an extremely warm welcome from Margaret, followed by an excellent meal in the restaurant. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was superb. Margaret and Alan were extremely helpful and knowledgable about the local area and activities. Margaret even booked some Horse Riding a few days before our... more

This is without doubt one of the very best B&Bs I have stayed in. Very welcoming, lovely light, spotlessly clean room. Excellent dinner & breakfast of scrambled egg & locally smoked salmon - perfect! The history of the telegraphic cable is fascinating & there are many pieces of memorabilia around including a huge scale model of the ship that laid... more
