Everything about the exchange with Eibhlín went very smoothly and communication was fantastic. Eibhlín went out of her way to make us feel welcome and to provide us with plenty of information about her home and about the local area. The house is bright, spacious and warm with lovely views across the countryside. It's ideally located to have some peace and quiet while being very accessible for the beautiful southern coast of Ireland. Dungarven is just 20 minutes away and there are plenty of nice eateries there. We had the pleasure of Eibhlín staying with us when she stayed in our house. She was a pleasure to have stay with us and is a lovely, warm and friendly person. She took great care of our house during her stay.
