Set in a rural environment it is an ideal location for a relaxing break, a retreat, a walking holiday or as a stop-over whilst exploring Ireland.

Although we are situated in a tranquil, rural location we are a short drive from Roscommon town (approx 15km) and a number of tourist attractions such as Rathcroghan Heritage Centre, Castlecoote House, Elphin Windmill and museum, Strokestown Famine Museum, Athlone (where you can take a boat trip down the River Shannon, take in a show at the Deane Theatre and avail of the shopping in the town centre).

Au coeur de l'Irlande rurale, Ray soigne l'accueil et donne à son domicile d'être un havre de paix. En peu de temps, nous avons appris sur l'histoire locale récente et ancienne. Accueil simple, généreux, profondément humain.

Ray was sweet and very welcoming! We instantly became friends. His place is beautiful, peaceful, clean, and relaxing. The only downside was that we only had one night to stay...we wish we could have extended our time there longer. Ray was accommodating and took plenty of time to share information about Ireland and things to do in the area. I cannot recommend this place enough. If you like peace and a quiet getaway, this is definitely the place to book for a lovely vacation! Can't wait to visit again! Thanks RAY :)

¿Cómo se hace una reserva?
Ponte en contacto con el anfitrión para comprobar su disponibilidad y preguntar todo lo necesario sobre la estancia. Una vez que el anfitrión confirme que está disponible para esas fechas, podrás confirmar la reserva.
¿Cuándo se realiza el pago?
Una vez que un anfitrión confirme su disponibilidad, puedes continuar con la reserva mediante el pago del 15% como tarifa de reserva (con un máximo de 250 $£€ para estancias de larga duración), utilizando uno de los siguientes métodos: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB y PayPal (este último no está disponible en ciertos países). Posteriormente, pagarás al anfitrión el mismo día de la llegada, o según las condiciones descritas en el perfil del anfitrión y acordadas en el momento de la reserva. Hay que prestar especial atención a las solicitudes de pago por adelantado por parte del anfitrión, especialmente cuando estas condiciones de pago no están incluidas en el perfil del anifitrión. Todos nuestros anfitriones han sido informados de que si desean solicitar un pago por adelantado, deben indicarlo claramente en el perfil. En cualquier caso, recomendamos desconfiar de quienes soliciten que se realice un pago a través de Money Gram o Western Union.
¿Cuándo se publican los datos de contacto?
Las direcciones de email, los números de teléfono y la dirección postal del anfitrión y del huésped aparecerán reflejados en el email de confirmación que se les enviará a ambos inmediatamente después de la confirmación de la reserva. El intercambio de datos de contacto personales entre los anfitriones y los huéspedes a través de los mensajes que se envían a través de nuestra plataforma, va en contra de nuestra política.
