    Our family had a wonderful stay here. The owners are very kind (and it’s so nice to see their daughter help them out at such young age). The breakfast was excellent and when they found out that I forgot to return the spare key, they gave us different options for returning the key to them, based on what the easiest way was for us. Thank you!

    Breakfast - I did think the fruit salad a little skimpy as it was mostly water melon. I did expect a better selection of fruit in the salad, quantity was good just the variety of fruit. The rest of the breakfast was perfect.

    The room was really clean and the bed very comfortable, I am used to a king size bed at home so was unsure that the double bed would be ok but honestly I got the best nights sleep - sheets were lovely ****

    Nothing.

    Everything about our stay was perfect. Our room was beautiful, nicely decorated, fantastic shower, comfortable bed and tea/coffee and biscuits in our room. Breakfast was excellent with a great choice of cereal, yogurts, fruit and much more. The views from the dining room was amazing. The hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful in every way. Nothing was too much trouble for them and really made our stay very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

    The bed was very uncomfortable. There was also a large note left on the spare single bed in the room which more or less said do not touch this bed in anyway or you will be charged extra . Which we wouldn’t have done and found this a bit strange because we’ve never encountered that before . But if you’ve paid for the room it shouldn’t really matter what bed you sleep on .

    The house was very clean and welcoming and Helen and her family were lovely… the house is in a good location remote and quiet …

    They have glass blocks between the hallway and bedroom, which felt a bit weird. (Maybe a curtain would be good there). And a note on the single bed saying, "This bed is for twin or triple room bookings only. Please do not use or place luggage on as there will be a charge/fee." If I can book a twin room, I always do, but the fact the paper was on the bed was a bit offensive to me. I've never seen that before, and so we both slept in the small double bed. The next morning, Helen (the hostess) said that we could have just taken the paper off and slept on it. No problem! Then was too late. Also, the Internet did not work in that room for my husband, nor I. Only when we were at the breakfast table.

    Nice welcome. Nice breakfast. Blackout curtains.

    If you are travelling and looking to stay here with children- AVOID An Charraig Ban!!!!! Reckon previous comments HAVE to be couples only. Certainly NOT child friendly atall!! For our holiday, I travelled 3 hours by car, alongside my 71 year old mother and 3 sons stopping for a one night stay here. Situated in a barren middle of no-where with nothing around only mountain-scape- on arrival I was met at the door by an extremely snooty looking host, who showed us to our rooms. Room was fine, until.. @8.30 I needed to go shop and so I left my mother with 2 boys. Came back to an upset mother and children. Mam had allowed the boys to explore outdoors (there were goal posts) and the "host" came in on top of my mother in a disturbing manner ordering the boys to be quiet. @10.30 as I was trying to settle the boys for bed, she came back down, this time actually ssssshing us, in her mini bathrobe telling us "other guests" wanted to sleep. There's loudness and there's simple child's play. My children were playing. I was actually looking forward to the fire-pit showed in the pictures- there was none. Two of my sons are diagnosed autistic and because of her attack, one boy ended up a lot of the night crying and growling with tummy aches due to anxiety. Wish a stag weekend would land on top of her... . Ruined the start of our holiday. For 230 a night, and a bitta cold Weetabix in the morning.... or a triangle of cheese on a single sliced, hardened bagel.... She seen us coming, don't let her fool you. Thank God, we now have a house to ourselves, for 170 per night and with its own outdoor hotbub!!

    My only window was on a back yard / farm yard view or like the garage so no way to get fresh air. Bathroom shower head wouldn’t stay on the pedestal. Tiles in bathroom unglued so made noise shifted when using the toilet/ rest room Waste paper only operated by foot pedal but would have to relocate to use. Place was mostly empty but I was below a parent/ child so listened to that. It always makes me wonder if owners think about maybe having a guest use a nicer or quieter room if it is available? or is this really about the owner?. I seemed to be wasting someone’s time.
