    Very nice place to stay,the breakfast was perfect and as we were leaving early every day we got the breakfast early. Room was nice and tidy and spacious. The spot was nice and quiet with beautiful views. Recommended to stay there as it's close to athlone and roscommon.

    Wonderful breakfast. Peaceful area and cozy home. John and Sandra, the hosts, were so welcoming and more than helpful. Our rental car broke down and they were right there to help us in whatever way we needed. They even helped us contact Nevada, a person that was able to drive us to our next destination, since no Uber or taxis were available because of a big game. Thank you all of you for making our stay in Ireland so pleasurable and unforgettable!!!

    A bit tricky to find up narrow rural lanes but navigation got us there and was worth the effort.

    Friendly helpful hosts, lovely ambience and attention to detail, especially the sun room with it's panoramic vista towards the lake. Beautiful rural setting

    Lovely quiet place with green beauty all around. John and Sandra were extremely welcoming. Left the following morning with our tummies full from a yummy Irish breakfast, John cooked. Hopefully, we will return one day. Thanks again.

    Looking out over Lough Ree....amazing. Small farms...sheep running about...lovely. The host and hostess were SO welcoming, we spent ages talking. Really lovely two way conversation....a true traditional BandB. Welcoming fresh scone and tea. Breakfast was out of this world, great selection but special mention of the bacon...it was heavenly.

    The directions to the house on the booking. Com site did not explain how far off the road the house is. During the day we got there just about but getting back after dark, the sat nav couldn't find the house and then the signal went so we were really lost. I managed to get a call to John the host and told him last place the sat nav showed before it went down. He went out looking for us and found us somehow.

    Beautiful house lovely view of the lake, extremely comfortable beds, nicely decorated rooms. Hosts were lovely people very friendly. Breakfast was great. The only problem was finding the house using booking com. The directions need to be clearer and easier to find on the site.
