Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Nore View House is set in an idyllic country setting, quiet and beautiful. My family and I stayed for 8 nights and traveled around Ireland each day. The accommodations were clean and everything we needed was there. Our host, Fergus, was welcoming and we enjoyed talking with him. He gave us some suggestions for dinner and places to visit they were spot on. If we needed anything we only had to call him. It was such a relaxing place to return to each evening, where we could sit and talk about our day. Thank you for your hospitality, Fergus, our trip to Ireland was memorable and Nore View House was wonderful.
