    “We were all disappointed in the accommodation at 11 An Seanachai.”

    The biggest problem was the heating which was mostly nonexistent (ground floor bathroom was absolutely frigid) but when it came on was totally random. We got NO response from either email or text requesting assistance in regulating the heat which we could not solve on our own as the guest instruction book makes no mention of it For the first couple of days, there was no heat in the upstairs double bedroom and then once it is was hot when we returned from a day out and once it was warm in the ...

    The biggest problem was the heating which was mostly nonexistent (ground floor bathroom was absolutely frigid) but when it came on was totally random. We got NO response from either email or text requesting assistance in regulating the heat which we could not solve on our own as the guest instruction book makes no mention of it For the first couple of days, there was no heat in the upstairs double bedroom and then once it is was hot when we returned from a day out and once it was warm in the morning -- that's the heat in that bedroom for the week. The heater by the dining table worked but that's all. The clothes washing machine did not function properly; when turned on it stayed on the wash cycle forever, never moving on to rinse and never stopping. There were no laundry tablets though the guest book said there were. There are no towel bars in either shower nor soap dish in the shower. The freezer needs defrosting. It would be good to mention that the An Seanachai pub is NOT open. I would recommend providing placemats for the table as well as drink coasters; clearly, hot/wet mugs/glasses have already left numerous marks on the wooden tables. Since it is a pedestral sink upstairs which provides no vanity for placing toiletries, I would suggest replacing the cute rowboat in the corner with useful shelving, and of course adding towel rails. There is no place for toiletries in the ground floor shower room either. Guests are asked to use the recycling bins but no information is provided as to WHAT can be recycled: glass?plastic?cans?paper? cardboard? On the positive side, location is excellent and there is plenty of paved parking. The owner and Sykes need to be MUCH more responsive to guests' needs once on site rather than ignoring them once they've booked and arrived. It would not take much to make this a top notch apartment but at the moment it needs attention.

    Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear you had a disappointing stay at An Seanachai. I am unsure why you were unable to get in touch with us during your stay. Other guests have had no issue getting in touch. The heating system is newly installed which is why the information is not updated in the welcome book, apologies. When the accomodation is vacant we will check this and the washing machine. Although, again, no other guests have reported any issues with either. Thank you for your comments regarding towel rails and storage in the bathrooms. There are towel rings and hooks on doors and the cute boat is intended for storage. However, we will reassess this. A soap dish is not provided as there are hand wash dispensers in all bathrooms and miniature toiletries are also supplied. I will speak to the management company regarding your comments about the bins. The An Seanachai pub being temporarily closed is outside of our contol but we have informed Sykes and it is now noted on their website. Again, sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay as much as our other guests have. Best regards, Sarah & Richy Property Owner

About the location

RING, COUNTY WATERFORD

Dungarvan 6 miles.

The region of Ring is situated on a peninsula, overlooking Dungarvan Harbour, just 6 miles from the town itself. Ring has many townlands, and is a rapidly growing area, already home to a restaurant, 5 pubs, and a Post Office. The area has two fishing piers, two beaches and a cove, and from Ring, you can walk the path across the sands of Dungarvan Bay, right to the edge of the town. The harbour town of Dungarvan has a whole host of exciting activities for guests to enjoy, including fishing, boating and wind surfing, while the delightful harbourside cafes, pubs and restaurants will tantalise your tastebuds. There are also three golf courses within easy reach of Dungarvan, and sea angling can be arranged from Helvick Head. A little further afield, Waterford town, New Ross and County Tipperary are all waiting to be discovered.
