As a solo female traveler, this was perfect. I felt at home and safe during my stay. The owner Stephanie is the best!! She was so kind and communicative and helpful :) And the location is *chefs kiss*. If you enjoy trail running or hiking, this place is the perfect spot. You’ll have to make time for Tollymore Park and a hike to the top of Slieve Donard… it’s a must! 😍
