Guest comments
We are five friends who get together every year, I live in New York and my girl friends live in Ireland, I don't think I can remember being anywhere so peaceful and beautiful, we had a wonderful time.
We are two families with 4 children between us, the house is beautiful, very large, with lots of space outside for the children to run around. We cooked outside near the pool for both lunch and dinner, the weather was equisite, I can strongly recommend.
