A cosy and comfortable house, with lovely artwork and good facilities, both within house and outside in the lovely terrace garden. The only thing that would improve the stay is some hooks downstairs for coats which are sadly occasionally needed in the west of Ireland!

We had a lovely stay in Sandy Heels in Roundstone. This house is very tastefully decorated and has a lovely little paved garden out the back with garden furniture which was beautiful during the hot weather.
