Company info

• Coming from a large family of 9 kids and having studied languages and living spells abroad in France, UK and since 1997 Ireland I am well versed in dealing with the everyday tasks of organising and looking after people. • I also run a whale & dolphin watching tour company and scuba diving centre (including snorkelling equipment rental) and an avid bridge player plus am an active walker and Irish set-dancer, wild ocean swimmer and love home baking and good food in general.

Property info

• We are a family run Bed & Breakfast in business since 1997 with just 4 rooms and pride ourselves on attention to detail, home baking and helping our guests make plans for dining, local activities, places to visit and routes onwards. • Breakfast – no less than 10 choices include vegan, vegetarian, fish or meat with of course the full Irish (grilled), smoked fish, eggs 4-ways, pancakes, porridge and all home-baked breads, home-made yoghurt, lemon curd / jams. We source our ingredients locally as much as possible. Lactose intolerant – no problem with Alpro alternatives and equally OK for wheatfree or glutenfree selections (although advance notice for these would be appreciated). • We have free off-street parking. There’s a laptop for your use and free Wi-Fi in the house. We have maps and reference books for you to use whilst staying with us and there’s a great selection of herbal, fruit and standard teas and coffee. • Unfortunately due to the age of the building, there is no wheelchair access to our house with front door steps to the entrance and stairs to the bedrooms which are all located on 1st floor.

Neighborhood info
