Loved this place. Clean. Great beds. Private cute tiny bathroom in the bedroom. Easy to get there and check in. We rented 2 rooms as we like big beds and one was a bit bigger than a dble, not enough for us. We went downstair for breakfast and it was so nice to have organic and healthy food. I would totally go back! We are in our late 50’s and it was perfect for us. Quiet :)

Right in the middle of the town. The macha latte (oat milk) and coffee is excellent here as are the home made croissants, pan au chocolate and scones. Place to sit down and enjoy the sound of the café available also. Ta very much Jo and team.

The owner is so kind and all the food/drinks were fantastic! We loved it so much, we got a big box of pastries to go. If we ever come back to Ireland, this Cafe and city is a place we have to visit again. Favorite stop on a 10 day journey around Ireland.
