Shandrum Brook

Great, comfortable house, we've stayed twice and will no doubt be back!

Our second stay at Shandrum Brook and it's a very peaceful, comfortable place to stay!

Very few complaints, other than that the pillows aren't great and the towels are very small! Could also do with some extra towels e.g. for handwashing downstairs. But that's all I could possibly criticise and I'd recommend this as a place to stay.

Second time we have stayed absolutely love Shandbrook and would recommend it

Our second visit to Shandrum Brook.

We absolutely love the cottage and Ireland. Comfortable and cozy, very sad to leave.

Lovely little cottage, very relaxing.

Loved the bird table and food being left for the birds.

We had a fabulous week in your delightful cottage.

It was very well placed for visiting family across Limerick county. Our first visitor on the Sunday evening was none other than John Newman who I believe is a first cousin of yours and a very good friend of mine. ( a surprise indeed) The cottage was greatly equipped although we would have one serious recommendation. We had bought ice and ice cream only to discover there was no freezer compartment in the fridge. Providing this would make a big difference. The only other slight issue would be the lack of a mirror in the two bedrooms. Aside from that it was the perfect home from home. We hope to return next year, Thank you very much.

Very steep steps at the back of property no hand rail from patio doors Very had to carry dog up hdmi port not working on tv but we enjoyed our stay

This is our third time staying at this beautiful cottage and we absolutely loved it.

Such a beautiful well maintained cottage that has everything you could ask for. The grounds are stunning and it was lovely this time because the grass has been cut so we was able to walk the field bare foot and play with our dog whilst also laying on a blanket enjoying the 21 degrees sun. Thankyou as always for making our stay so lovely with this wonderful cottage. We will be back again and again. This is the only cottage we will rent when we come over to visit family.

As the norm towels not big enough, need to invest in bath sheets, when sharing for a week with friends a large towel to cover yourself is a must.

Tv bracket could be fitted so telly comes out more. On a positive wish I owned such a lovely cottage

Absolutely loved it a week wasnt long enough butbthe memories will last a lifetime

We absolutely loved our stay at sandrum Brook.

What a delightful cottage, fully equipped for all our needs. They field was ideal for the dogs and we played swing ball and volleyball on it too. The fire and chimney were used most nights as were the board games and cards left in cottage. We sat outside watching the sunsets and stars lovely end to beautiful days. Really good base for day trips round Ireland, we had a wonderful time with the perfect base to come home to. We had a power outage on the day of the England final the owners were very helpful and the problem was resolved before the start of the match (sadly we lost) Charlie vile has lots of shops and has everything you need, the local pubs are also worth a visit with music played at weekends.. We would definitely stay again and were very sad to leave this little piece of heaven.

Great cosy cottage, everything that you need, we had a good time, and would return if ever in that area.

Unfortunately my disabled sister got very sick before we were due to go , So we were unable to go .

Tried to contact owner but was unable to contact them

The house is beautiful and the views from the balcony and outdoor sitting area are spectacular, the steps down to the outdoor area are a bit steep and you should provide the eircode in the direction, the parking is a bit tight but the area is lovely and there are plenty of places to walk the dogs.

Cottage was in a very nice location local restaurant and shops excellent I will use Hogan's cottage's again in other locations in Ireland

We had a lovely 2 week stay at Shandrum Brook.

The cottage is very well equipped, cosy, with a great area outside to sit if the weather is nice. It is a few miles outside Charlesville where there are shops and places to eat. It is a great location for visiting other areas. The owners were very easy to contact when we had a small problem when we first arrived. I would recommend - lovely holiday cottage!

Very well equipped, nicely furnished, cosy cottage.

The nearby town of Charleville has restaurants and very good shopping. Unfortunately, the warm water only worked in the upstairs bathroom. We only had cold water in the downstairs bathroom and kitchen. Contacted the owners on their answering machines but they didn't call back. Contacted Sykes via email. Sykes supposedly tried to call back, but my mobile phone showed no call. We were then asked via email to call back, but neither Sykes' message nor their website included a phone number. We decided to come to terms with the situation. However, we were wondering what happens in a real emergency (e.g. lost key) when no one is available.

The Cottage was amazing, it was like home from home, it was very cosy and welcoming, the location was perfect for us to visit family,our dog loved all the space, I think he covered the whole 2 acres of it.

We will definitely be booking it for next year.

Small freezer would be handy!

House plenty of character! Would stay again

Very friendly, location perfect ,enjoyed very much

Shandrum Brook is a comfortable , clean and fully-furnished holiday home ; set in a picturesque location ; 2 km's from Charleville town and with a lovely view and quiet surroundings.

The owners , Sally and Bernard , were great and were immediately available if we needed advice or had a query.We felt at home throughout our stay and will highly recommend this lovely home to anyone wanting to relax and see a bit of the Emerald Isle.

The property was perfectly adequate if you dined out every evening But needs more cooking equipment, ie trays for heating food, frying pan, Difficult if you wished to dine in.

cooker not especially adequate . Sometimes after a busy day, more helpful requirements aree needed, Especially with young children. Rubbish bins were left in the sitting area which are an eyesore. And should be outside. Also an accumulation of rubbish was placed outside the Front of the property which was there all week. This was very unsightly. This could be a wonderful holiday home, with a little more insight.

Can I keep this cottage a secret?

It is just perfect. I can’t wait to go back. I miss it so much!

cottage has had a lot of work put in to it the owners should be please with work done no metal bucket for fire ash had to buy one which I took with me as I have moved to Ireland myself and need for my cottage I wish the owners well for all years ahead of them and good luck with it all

The property was excellent, and far exceeded our expectations.

In a lovely location, quiet yet reasonably close to Charleville. We will definitely stay there again when we need accommodation in the area.
