The hut was so cosy and perfect for 2 people and it was very private just as the hosts said !
Unfortunately it’s a drive from any town which isn’t a problem unless you need a taxi as they’re a bit expensive but that’s the price to pay for a lovely view!!!
The whole experience was amazing. Willl defo be back. From meeting the owner who was exceptionally helpful and went beyond what was required to make this break away unforgettable, the location is perfect, the cabin was spotless, The quietness and view makes this stay so enjoyable, I highly recommend this gem off a place to stay to get away from the city!
Nothing! You can’t fault this place
A cosy, peaceful stay in a beautiful hut, with the hot tub making it extra special.
Honestly nothing — everything was perfect and we couldn’t fault it.
Completely isolated from the host's house. They don't notice you and you know they are there. Feels like a lone hut on a hill, with all city amenities.
The hut itself is absolutely gorgeous. The area it's in is nice and private. The bed,shower and hottub was amazing. Definitely will book again in the future.
There was a lack of options for cooking.
Perfect little get away with loads of nature around. The hut was clean, the hot tub was amazing and it was an overall 10 out of 10 experience.
Everything - we stayed in the Blue Hut and absolutely everything had been considered. Bed was very comfy, shower lovely and hot, place was spotless and hot tub was a very fun addition. We will 100% be back again and be recommending them to friends and family.
The location and the comfort.
It was very clean and very private just what you need for a relaxing break away, the hut exceeded expectations and the host Gary is very welcoming and helpful
We had to leave
Absolutely beautiful green surroundings, with a view of the forest in the distance and a view of the lake on the other side. Beautiful, very cozy and very clean space. There was everything you need for a short break. I would highly recommend.
Some traffic nearby but it was a busy weekend in St. Patrick, so it comes in a package. There is little or no traffic at night so everything is calm and quiet so we slept well.
Clean and very comfortable close to all amenities
It was clean and comfortable and also very private.
The atmosphere, the cabin was adorable but a lot more roomy than it felt like. We had tons of fun in the area and it was great returning to the warm and snug cabin to rest.
Can't think of anything, maybe the fact we only stayed for 3 days, we could have been there a week.
Clean and very comfortable
Close to a main road
The hut itself is lovely, clean, and comfy. it’s very private, in a beautiful location. the private hot tub was spotless, and a real treat. Gary and Margaret are both really lovely and welcoming, and are available if you need anything.
we didn’t like that we had to leave.
Good location
All good
Beautiful location, host was lovely, kind and welcoming, very friendly dog too. Hut was immaculate and extremely cosy with a very comfy bed set up perfectly for nights in watching Netflix.
Everything! Hut was immaculately clean, arrived to find juice, milk, bread, butter and jams. Very easy to find & parking is accessible, along with feeling very private and secure Bed was very comfortable and even staying this time of year (Mid February) the place was warm the whole stay WiFi was consistent we used it to watch a movie on Netflix that was uninterrupted Shower was hot and pressure was there
genuinely nothing to report
A beautiful cabin, great views, very comfortable, so cosy and warm. Lovely presentation of breakfast foods. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Loved it. I will be back.
Gorgeous little spot in a beautiful location! Really enjoyed our stay! Thanks guys!
Incredible little hut. Beautiful and thoughtful touches throughout. Highly recommend staying here for a couple of nights.
Very comfy beds, super cleans and lots of nice finishing touches!
immaculate and fitted with all mod cons.

Breakfast was great had choice from eggs, creal, oatmeal, fresh homemade bread, 2 jams, coffe, tea, jug milk and oj. The hut had a sitting area outback, solar sensor lights. They had a binder of gow to work stuff, local attractions and places to eat. Made you feel like you were at home with many necessities you need!! Met me at car when I got there as I gave them an approximate time of arrival🙂
Can't say I found anything
Everything was perfect. Great place to stay. Highly recommend
Everything was just perfect. The weather was a bonus but it's a place that even on a wet night would have been perfect.
Couldn't fault a thing about it.
Although the jokey was in a lockbox the lovely host greeted us. Breakfast ingredients were provided, including tea, ground coffee and a plunger or French press as well as instant, eggs, bread, several cereal varieties, milk and juice.
The bed was very comfortable but given this is a tiny house it was against a wall and my husband had to climb over me to get to the toilet in the night. Also some noise from traffic started around 5.30 am. It didn’t wake me but my husband heard it. None of this is major and overall our experience was excellent.
Setting, location, helpful host, cosy hut and lovely place to relax
Everything was great: the hut's interior and exterior, the cleanliness of the accomodation, the breakfast provided, the atmosphere at the farm and especially our host Gary and his lovely family!
The Hut is cozy and the breakfast was amazing!
absolutely everything!!!
nothing
Breakfast was basic but what we were expecting. Beautiful outlook
Nothing could improve our stay, we are thinking of booking our next stay
it is simply stunning. completely blown away by the attention of detail in the entire hut. everything is thought of. Every bit of space utilised. The interior and exterior of the hut is dreamy. To appreciate the full extend of the hut you have to experience it yourself. Reminds you of how beautiful Ireland is. The views that are right on the door step are stunning whatever the weather. I cannot recommend it enough it is a piece of work to be admired.
An amazing little home from home escape. We spent three nights here and didn't want to leave! Gary, even though we didn't get to meet him in person, was a super host. He had the hut sparkling and ready for us at 3pm. It really was spotless, couldn't fault it at all. Lovely touch with everything you'd want for a continental breakfast each morning. There was even Tayto crisps which was a real treat. Such an Irish thing, I love it :) We were looking for somewhere quiet where we could just switch off and chill. We were able to do just that. There's a lovely little seating area at the front of the hut where we sat and read a book with a glass of wine and watched the beautiful cow's potter around the field. A real slice of heaven with lots to do and see not far from where we were. Can't wait to come back here again.
There was nothing I didn't like about it to be fair. A real gem
