Gorgeous property; wonderful hosts!

Beautifully upkept 300 year old house. We were made very welcome on our arrival, personally shown to our room, and given a good recommendation for dinner as most of the higher end restaurants are closed on a Tuesday. The room was gorgeous, very comfortable & I couldn't resist taking a bath in the claw foot tub. Lovely local made bath products provided. The breakfast was scrumptious! My husband, a bit of a foodie, is still talking about the smoked fish and the prunes soaked in Earl Grey Tea and cinnamon! Our only regret is that we only had one night there. Thank you, Orla! We will be back. 😊

− That we only had one night to spend there!

The house is decorated and furnished more like a home than a hotel. It is very comfortable. The staff are very friendly. Great bed. Lots of hot water. Beautiful breakfast.
