A perfect spot for a cozy winter family trip. We loved playing the board games provided by the fire, and birdwatching at the estuary down the street!

The absolute perfect place to be

We've been travelling to so many places - but Aileen's place is by far the best. Very neat, clean, bright, well equipped, nicely decorated and very close to the beach. We enjoyed every minute and we can definitely recommend it!

The suite is clean and well appointed. The beach across the street is rocky but very peaceful. Other local beaches are a short drive away. The owners are lovely.

We had a fantastic experience. The suite was exactly as advertised, and Aileen was lovely and very responsive to questions. The area is quiet with easy beach access and a short walk to Rathtrevor. We were all very comfortable at night (2 bedrooms and a pull-out couch) and the kitchen is stocked with everything you might need. Lots to do in the area.

Super stay near the beach!

The unit is beautiful, tidy and has everything you need. The neighbourhood is very quiet and I enjoyed walking at the beach with convenient access just across the street. Lots of windows in the unit provide natural light and great views of gardens. It’s a very peaceful and private place to stay, Highly recommend!
