“Hosts Michael and Eileen very pleasant.”
House is in great condition overall.
It is a 10 minute walk to the ferry terminal for ARAN ISLANDS and is ideally located for day trips around the stunningly beautiful Connemara.
However,there is one problem. The central heating boiler is located right in the kitchen! Strangely,the boiler is located within a range type cooker.. The problem is,when in use,there is a horrible smell of kerosene throughout the kitchen...not nice when you're having a meal. Also,boiler is very noisy. We had the boiler on whilst eating every time,as weather is unseasonably very cold in Ireland at the moment. Also,cutlery is of very low quality...more like what one would have whilst camping.
Thank you for your review and for your kind comments about the house cleanliness
and facilities. We were sorry to hear afterwards that you were unhappy with aspects of your stay particularly as we checked with you twice during your visit and were told everything was perfect. Following your comments we checked the Stanley range carefully and could not detect any kerosene smell. The slight noise mentioned can occur briefly when the range is starting similar to many oil-fired systems, but it is normally minimal. We have been welcoming guests for many years and this is the first time concerns regarding smell or noise from the range has been raised. Regarding the cutlery we provide standard stainless steel cutlery which are in good condition and suitable for every day holiday use. We always appreciate guests feedback and will continue to monitor everything carefully to ensure guests enjoy a comfortable stay.
