2025.To say that we met very interesting people, staying for all different sorts of reasons, would be an understatement. Judging by the comments you all had an enjoyable stay and we were glad we could provide what you expected and make your visit as comfortable as possible. Nuala

 Jerome, Troyes, August 2025. “ Le séjour s’est très bien passé. Nuala et Hue ont été d’une gentillesse exceptionnelle et d’un accueil très chaleureux. La maison est à l’entrée d’un très grand jardin qui est accessible aux visiteurs. La maison située à 30 minutes de Cork en voiture permet de rayonner dans le sud de l’Irlande et de découvrir des endroits aussi magnifiques qu’insolites. Nous reviendrons sans nul doute ici en cas de nouveau séjour irlandais” ☘️.

 Sebastien, Lyons, August 2025. “excellent séjour à the lodge, hôtes bienveillants et très accueillants. logement impeccable, emplacement idéal pour rayonner à la journée à Cork, à la plage ou bien découvrir le patrimoine dans les environs. Pub accessible à pied depuis le logement. nous voyagions avec une personne en situation de handicap moteur en fauteuil roulant, canapé convertible au rez-de-chaussée et douche à l’italienne au rez-de-chaussée.”

Holly, Dublin, July 2025. “ Lovely old stone cottage, great location for sightseeing with kids. Has everything you need. Kids loved it, especially the gorgeous gardens and Bundy the dog. We stayed with a baby and toddler - ask in advance if you need a highchair and mattress for the travel cot (also bring your own sheet for the travel cot). Dishwasher and washing machine very handy, and also has a power shower which is great. The hosts made us feel very welcome and we hope to stay again in the future.”

Niall, Dublin, July 2025. “Dublin Fantastic stay at Nuala's. our kids loved exploring the huge and immaculate garden. House has so much character and had everything we need. Nuala could not have been more friendly or welcoming. And Bundee the puppy had an energetic hello for us every morning!”

Cintia, Guaruja, June 2025. “We travelled as a family through 3 countries and this accommodation was the best of all. We felt very comfortable with the reception given by Nuala. The house is very cozy, it has everything we need and the whole environment is very beautiful. The garden is huge and charming. We have nothing to complain about and if we return to Ireland that will be our choice again. Having to leave is the downside.”
