The owner Malachy was welcoming and helpful without being intrusive. I cannot speak highly enough of the cottage its owner, the area, and its people.

Sykes have taken the money and not refunded. Will not be booking again. Total scam.

The roads are good and the cottage is just a short distance from the A1 to Dublin. A huge Eurospar is between it and the cottage and is so well stocked with both healthy food and cream buns! There are many excellent places to eat, ranging in price but good food and service without exception. The cottage is beside Killeavy Old Churches, an interesting ancient monument resting quietly under the most beautiful Beech trees. The churchyard is filed with so many naturally occurring wild flowers and the views through the trees are stunning. Behind the cottage there is a field which is well managed but free for wild flowers to grow. It is well populated with Butterflies, Bees and all sorts of buzzing life. The air is filled with bird song. The cottage was warm to enter. Everything clean and neat and an excellent comfortable lounge. Our host was welcoming, friendly and helpful.
