  • "Lovely house and photos don’t do it justice."

    Owner thought about every detail to make our stay perfect and nothing was missing. Beautiful well kept front and back garden, dogs could enjoy the garden freely and safe. We definitely recommend to stay at this property.

  • "Lovely stay in Dromahair."

    Marie was a fantastic host and met us at check in. The house was beautiful, clean and with all mod cons. The garden was perfect too, well maintained and enclosed which was great for the dog. Dromahair has a couple of shops with basically all needs covered, although Lidl isn’t too far away just on the outskirts of Sligo town. Two pubs in the village, with another on the outskirts and the locals were welcoming and friendly. Would definitely stay here again if we are back in the area, as it’s a great base to explore Leitrim and the surrounding area.

  • "We had a fabulous time at Castle Cove."

    The property is immaculate and has everything you need. We much appreciated the dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. We didn’t make use of the coffee machine but it was a nice offering (pods were left to be used). Salt, pepper and other useful products were available including dishwasher tablets. The rooms were all a good size and the wardrobes had hangers. We spent most of our time in the kitchen watching the numerous birds at the feeders. We loved the jeopardy of the two cats who peeped over the fence. The bathrooms, like the rest of the property were new and clean. The showers were effective. The gardens were beautifully maintained. Our dog was wary of the automatic lawn mower but made friends with it as the week passed. Dromahair was a lovely little village. Very well placed to visit Sligo and around. The village shops were well stocked . We did use the takeaway one night but it was not best fish and chips. We only went in one of the pubs - the Blue Devon. It was friendly and locals chatted to us. The Guiness was good. Shops and pubs were 5 mins walk from the house. Our dog was with us and at the property there was a bed for her and bowls for food and water. The garden was secure and even out the front in the small cul de sac, it was safe for her to wander. Thank you to Marie who met us with the keys for her helpfulness. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to all.

  • "Castle Cove was a beautiful property, the minute we walked in it felt like home."

    The cottage is well appointed with every facility you would need to make your stay a happy one. The cottage benefits from having two toilets, which is a must when there are more than two of you, one being ensuite off the main bedroom. Another really lovely feature of the cottage is the wood burning stove in the front room, perfect to sit around after a long day out sightseeing. The kitchen is large and has every kind of implement needed for cooking large meals or just snacks, there is a large dining table which comfortably seats six people and is a light and airy room, just right for lounging around after a good meal. The bedrooms are very comfortable with plenty of wardrobe space. There is a well appointed utility room with a washing machine and a dryer that leads out to the garden which is very spacious and has a nice seating area, ideal for a drink on a warm evening. All in all this is a superb cottage and one that I would happily stay in again.

  • "The cottage was well furnished and decorated to a high standard."

    All the utilities and appliances functioned perfectly. We appreciated the comfortable seating in the sitting room. We thoroughly enjoyed the dining area overlooking the garden and bird feeders. The back garden was well maintained and provided a wonderful vista. Marie greeted us upon arrival and even provided us with a lovely apple tart and a floral arrangement for the dining table. She was readily available by telephone for any questions. The village is picturesque with two shops for any necessities. Everyone was very friendly. We would return to this home if we were on holiday in this area.

    Well located for visiting many attractions in the area.

There is a good private garden with barbeque, seating and umbrella and also a decent washing line. The three bedrooms are all clean and spacious and one has an en suite shower room. The main bathroom has a shower attachment over the bath but no curtain. A hairdryer would have been useful. There is plenty of off road parking. Overall, this is a well appointed house and we would certainly recommend it as a base for a holiday in the area.
