Rating des Ortes: 5 Howth, Dublin, Republic of Ireland
I really can’t recommend this place enough. I had an absolutely amazing winter weekend here! The company has multiple cottages and tree houses spread around the village of Skibberean(Co. Cork), each unique and charming in it’s own way. We arrived on Saturday evening and were met by the owner, who was such a gentleman. You can tell he really loves what he does! He gave us a run through of what we would find in the cottage(leaflets on local restaurants, delivery takeouts and things to do) along with giving us directions. We stayed in Lassanroe barn which was only 5 minutes away from the main check in. When we got in, the heating had been on and the place was wonderfully cosy. A little blackboard propped on the wall read«Welcome Alan» and was accompanied by a personalised letter from the owner wishing us a lovely stay and a bottle of bubbly. The cottage was beautifully decorated and really clean. The kitchen was fully kitted out too which was handy and I ended up making some brownies that night! They really think of everything though. We had hot water bottles, robes(for the outdoor jacuzzi), DVDs and they even had Sky TV! As for the jacuzzi, it was fabulous. Perfect temperature, clean, and very private! It was really the icing on the cake! I cannot speak highly enough of this place. It was just perfect! If your looking to treat your other half or are looking for a couple retreat this is the place to go!
