    Owner went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and assist me in my stay. Room was wonderful, and the bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in! Facilities in room excellent too.

    Nothing

    We booked not realising it was so far inland (booking.com said it was 4 miles from us, took 25 min in opposite direction) Though it was meant to be, as it was such a peaceful location, with a fascinating pub a few doors up, we met the publican, WOW, what a fascinating man. He told us the most amazing stories. Hosts were so friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.

    Beautiful House in a tranquil setting with spacious immaculately clean bright rooms . Very comfortable beds with loads of storage . The hosts Bernie &John were as pleasant and as helpful as you could possibly wish for. Communication with Bernie and John was 5 ⭐ nothing was too much trouble. Spotlessly clean kitchen where complementary continental breakfast was supplied as well as all amenities you would need to make your own choice of breakfast . The Bathroom was also spotless spacious and bright. The out door seating area is beautiful and tranquil yet another bonus . I didn’t get a chance to go on the lovely walks,but will next time 🤞🤞. Fantastic stay guys Thank you so much 🙏 The thatched pub next door is fabulous also with great staff that couldn’t be more helpful. We’ll be back

    Struggling to find fault. Was very happy all in all.

    I loved the warm welcome from John & Bernie. They were extremely helpful. Gave us a guided tour of the property and gave plenty of local food and drink recommendations. They also supplied a map of local attractions which you wouldn't be aware of if you weren't from the region. The Deluxe Room was excellent, quite big which included an En-Suite. Tea, coffee, milk,cereal and pastries on offer which was a lovely touch. Bed was very comfortable and room had a fridge,tv and WIFI . All in all a lovely stay will definitely be back again. Excellent hosts true and true.

    What an amazing gem the Yoke is. Beautifully appointed with fabulous facilities and a welcome by Bernie and John that was warm and inviting. Spacious bedroom and bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen. Location is perfect for the many local attractions highlighted on the maps provided. An historic thatched pub next door is a real draw and the Guinness and local folklore from the bar staff crowns it all. Nothing was too much trouble and Bernie and John were excellent hosts. I certainly will be back to explore the area further. Thanks so much for a wonderful break.

    There was nothing I didn't like, it was all great.

    I liked everything. John and Bernie were delightful hosts, kind and thoughtful. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the kitchen and bathroom spotlessly clean. I have been in Ireland for three weeks and this was unquestionably the best accommodation of the whole trip.
