“This was in an Edwardian house in a small town on the East coast of Ireland. This bedroom was located on the top floor that was actually a conservatory – all windows, including the ceiling! The room was small with the bathroom essentially in the room, but if you’ve traveled in Europe it won’t surprise you that much. You can see a photo of the bedroom on my photostream if you follow the link. The owners were very friendly and it was very affordable. I just stumbled upon it. I was getting too tired to continue on my drive, so I pulled off the motorway and headed towards the center of town and passed by it.”

“One of my favourite hotels (the staff go the extra mile to be helpful, the bar has a wonderful chilled atmosphere & the Terrace restaurant cooks great fish to order).
The shops on Princess Street & the castle are in easy walking distance and there are lots of bars/restaurants literally next door.
If you wish to go further afield then the train station is approx 15-20 mins walk.”
