Positive:
It's a remote location, which could be pros and cons: it's 10-15 min drive from any shops, but it is also so peaceful! I think it's perfect for some retreats where you have almost no connection to civilisation and internet. They have Wi-Fi box, but connection is very slow and barely enough for watching films. There is no smart TV either, so it's mostly you, nature and a good book to read. So it really depends on your expectations really if like it or not. They also have 2 bedroom and living room with nice sofa bed. Few more things:
- we loved heated blanket!
- easy check in (door was open)
- that place is perfect for board games in the living room, so bring some with you!
Negative:
- smell in bathroom was terrible after using it
- it was a bit dirty (spider web and dust all over the place)
- no dishwasher
- mould on walls
Summary: Nice place to stay for few nights to disconnect from busy Dublin, but with on disadvantages.
