What a lovely house! The property is incredibly comfortable, large and well stocked. The welcome food was all excellent and really well received. The hosts could not do more to make you feel welcome. There were even toys out for our children when we arrived and they got bikes and trikes from the shed for my son to play with one day.
Would thorough recommend with Neville Cross pub and Adare is so close it was perfect for us to stay during a wedding there.

Transported to the Irish Country life. Dan and Ann were terrific. Local knowledge was amazing. The family’s history on this farm is not to be missed. Quick trip into Adare, hikes up Knockferna was terrific and close to many small towns. two grocery stores nearby. Only bad part was leaving

We had a great stay at the cottage, which is situated in a beautiful area of lush green farmlands. The house was clean, charming, comfortable, and larger than the photos depict. Communication with Anne prior to check in was a breeze. A most gracious host, she helped us sort out some logistics for our Easter arrival and even had some food and coffee at the house-much appreciated after an overnight flight. Dan also popped by a few times to offer generous advice about the local sites and how to navigate them, which we took and had a perfect weather view of the Cliffs of Moher. Their sweet dog Sadie kept careful track of our arrivals and departures and would greet us each time. We spent sone evenings in Adare village, a charming and manageable spot with lots of restaurants and pubs. Our family was very impressed with the experience and we hope to return someday.

Beautiful farmhouse with great hosts
An ideal rural retreat. Farmhouse comfortably accommodates 6. Lovely antique furniture gives a rustic feel but still has plenty of modern amenities. 10 minutes to Adare village and 30 minutes to Limerick making this an ideal spot for exploring the region. Hosts were fantastic, helping with local restaurants, booking taxis, and making sure we were comfortable during the stay, even laid the sitting room fire for us. Welcome pack of food was well thought out and the Marmalade with Irish Whiskey went down a treat. Would highly recommend.
