The property owner, Brian, was extremely helpfull. He gave me directions to several local places of interest. If you like local flavor, there is plenty within walking distance. I will definately book it again.

This was one of my favourite places to stay during the trip. Brian was super responsive and helpful from start to finish. I loved the little town of Holywood, quiet and friendly but close enough to the big city. Brian recommended a restaurant around the corner from us and it’s probably the best Indian I’ve ever had. Highly recommend a stay here.
