  • "This is a great cottage with flexible accomadation for up to three families having large rooms with double and single bed arrangements."

    The kitchen facilities were good with plenty of plates and everything provided like dishwasher tablets. The host was brilliant sorting a minor alarm issue wilst we were out for the day, peace of mind that this is provided along with cctv outside the property was nice for us as anglers. The location is fantastic for Cootehill and the surrounding area with a very friendly bar/social club just short walk up the road. There is a lovely view out the back and whilst we stayed in autumn I'm sure it would be great in the winter with underfloor heating etc.

    A very peaceful location. Had the pleasure of meeting the owners whilst there and enjoyed learning about the history of the property. We will definitely be returning to this property in the near future.

    We got a nice surprise when we arrived to find scones milk butter and homemade jam the house itself was beautiful and we felt like we could have been in another country even though our home was 20 miles away we had lots of fun in the games room playing pool and my son was delighted to find a Nintendo wii and some games giving us a tranquil experience in a house with old world charm and 20th century facilities

  • "Only that one has to drive to the nearest village or co-op for food and meals out."

    We were hoping to be able to walk around more. It filled our every expectation in all other ways though and everyone we met was friendly and helpful! We were welcomed to join in a local dance session that my four grandchildren will always remember. Finding a true Irish stone thatched roof cottage was on the top of our list and An Maide Ban was perfect!
