What a delightful stay in a well styled Manor. All the rooms are tastefully appointed & in keeping with the era which gives a warm homely feeling to your stay. Delightful staff eager to help, made our stay even more homely. The showers are difficult to use & perhaps a queen bed to replace the double size would be our only positive criticism. Despite these small criticisms the stay was just delightful.

This is a super cute bed and breakfast. We stayed in the outer building in a family room. It was absolutely beautiful with a little balcony overlooking the cutest little garden. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was excellent. My only complaints were the Wi-Fi did not work great in the outer building and there was zero pressure in the shower head but we just took a bath instead and that was great.

Absolutely wonderful stay off the beaten path and in a beautiful setting - wish we could have stayed more than one evening. It's an excellent area from which to explore the cliffs, Malin Beg, etc. We particularly enjoyed spending time in the evening with John, our host, and other guests in the bar.
