    “Lovely location and we really enjoyed the quaintness of the property.”

    The only things that was holding back from being a perfect stay. 1. Pillows were flat and hard 2. Bedding was poor quality, bottom sheet was full of nubs and hair. It was very scratchy and kind of gross picking hair off. 3. The sofa really needs to be changed out, it’s seen its day and is very uncomfortable and needs a good cleaning. 4. The property could use some fine tuning in the cleaning , overall decent, however, lots of cobwebs, night table wasn’t too clean , dressing table needed ...

The property could use some fine tuning in the cleaning , overall decent, however, lots of cobwebs, night table wasn’t too clean , dressing table needed a good dusting. Overall we enjoyed our stay .. the biggest drawback being the poor quality bedding. Not at all as photographed. And the sofa is very tired and not at all in the condition like the picture. Very easy complaints from me to fix. Shower was great, bed comfortable, lots of towels, soaps etc. Very friendly owners and a very sweet horse.

About the location

ARDFINNAN, COUNTY TIPPERARY

Cahir 6 miles; Clonmel 8 miles; Lismore 20 miles.

Ardfinnan is a small village situated close to the Knockmealdown Mountains on the River Suir, in the south of County Tipperary. The village features a beautiful open green, several good pubs, a shop, and Ardfinnan Castle, an impressive Norman construction hovering majestically in the centre of this picturesque village. Just eight miles away, the lively town of Clonmel lies close to the border of Tipperary and Waterford. The town is probably most famous for being the home of Magners Cider and has a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. Full of history, Clonmell is the only town in Ireland that managed to hold off Oliver Cromwell’s New Model Army during his siege on Ireland in the 17th century, using the tactics of General O’Neill, the townsfolk were evacuated to safety. The nearby Nire Valley offers many walking and cycling opportunities, with the Comeragh Mountains as an impressive backdrop. Ardfinnan is close to the M8 motorway, providing easy access to County Cork and Dublin, the perfect base for exploring Ireland, all year round!
