Convenient spacious and comfortable with all the facilities you would need
Nothing I can think of
The quite and the apartment was very comfortable
No water in bathroom taps
Peaceful environment, lovely garden to sit in. Well equipped kitchen, and walk in shower excellent. Big comfortable bed. Not too far from Moate where you could get everything you wanted. Dun na Si Heritage Park in Moate well worth a visit.
We liked everything, no complaints.
Luxe moet je niet verwachten maar de accommodatie is voldoende ingericht om enkele dagen te overbruggen.
Het interieur van het huisje voelde erg vochtig aan.
Delightful stay and hosts Gael and Garry were excellent.
Good hospitality
Nothing
It was very comfortable with everything we needed. Easy check in and check out.
Not all the windows had blinds
Lovely host, has everything you need, very clean, quiet location
Nothing
Ruimte om het huis.
Geen tv, krakende vloer van bovenburen.
It was spotless and everything we needed was in the apartment
Nothing. It was perfect
Ruim appartement met goed bed
Host was welcoming. Apartment had most of what we needed. Location sites what we were doing in the area and price was great.
The sound travelled through the floor so unfortunately loud conservation disturbed us at times. Luckily this was only one of our 2 night stay. Kitchen Cupboard doors very warped.
It was spacious , had a gas cooker , and plenty lounging space. This was a work trip . It was perfect for that. There’s a lovely garden. Landlady was very welcoming and Zoe the dog . I would go back .
Quiet area, only 10 minutes drive from moate. Has all the facilities you would require fridge, cooker, microwave, coffee making machine, kettle et cetera.. Triton T 90 electric shower.
Furniture and fixing a little bit outdated. And worn. (But has brilliant character) definitely not suited for anybody with Mobility issues. The one we were in at the top of the stairs as you can see has multiple steps.
The property was lovely quite relaxing and very clean and cosy
Nothing to complain about at all
La ubicación cerca de la ciudad con todos los servicios, sin problema de aparcamiento . Tenía todo lo necesario para cocinar, muy limpio, acogedor y estuvimos calentitos en todo momento. Los anfitriones fueron muy atentos en todo momento.
Todo nos gustó.
Perfect place to stay. Kitchen and private bathroom. Very clean and comfortable
We met Gail on arrival who was lovely and welcoming The apartment was clean and cosy We also loved how quiet the area was
Lovely 😍 👌 beautiful place 😍 super extra apartment full of everything you need ❤️ Thanks 👌
Big garden. Allowing our dog to stay. Ample crockery and cutlery. Instructions about finding the property were easy to understand. Plenty of parking.the
We found the outside stairs difficult. They were steep, had no handrail and, to us, were dangerous. We would not have used this property had we known this. Broken kitchen doors. Slippery shower floor.We had to drive to Moate to eat (the nearby restaurant was unavailable as it had a function. We had to cancel the second night and did this within the time specified by Booking.com. The owners denied us a refund. There was no welcome when we arrived.
Really enjoyable few days. Dog friendly. Will recommend for the future.
Towels - very small bath towel for each person. Could have been bigger and better quality. No hand towel. As there was no way to open a window, it was not easy to dry the towels. For 4 nights / 5 days, suggest a change of towels.
The bed was confortable. The kitchen is well equipped and spacious. The bathroom is also spacious. Our hosts were very friendly and ready to help.
Lieu sympathique et calme, très lumineux grâce aux velux et à la baie vitrée pour l'appartement du haut. Les hôtes sont adorables. Nous le recommandons pour un séjour de quelques jours.
Le ménage peut être amélioré notamment dans la cuisine (miettes + mégot dans le grille pain + vaisselle moyennement propre) et dans la salle de bain (siège WC extrêmement collant + nombreuses toiles d'araignée).
Peaceful🤗
Couldn’t regulate the shower🤣
The location was great for exploring Westmeath and surrounding areas. The hosts were wonderful and so helpful, and their dog is lovely and friendly. The kitchen has pretty much everything you'd need, and having a washing machine was a real bonus.
There was nothing we didn't like! However, the decor does feel unfinished, but perhaps that was the vibe they're going for. It was unusually warm when we stayed, so we opened the skylights, which are great, but there was a lot of detritus on them from the wonderful trees above, which obscured the view a bit, and came in when the wind blew.
Very cosy with everything you could need. Perfect location if you’re interested in touring Westmeath.
Location was good
Really enjoyed our stay. Lovely comfy bed. Great shower. And though some of the utensils could do with updating, the kitchenette had everything we needed and we were able to cook multiple quality meals. There's a great pub less than ten minutes walk away which had good food, drink, trad music and welcoming locals. Moate village is five mins drive and Athlone 15-20. Plenty of dog friendly cafes and walks in the vicinity.
Just a warning if you're short, the single high dining table and chairs were difficult to use (my wife is under 5 foot)
The host was friendly, the location was great, and the accommodation was clean and comfy. The view was absolutely unbelievable; so beautiful and peaceful setting.
The narrow and bendy rural roads, but honestly if you’re not in a rush, it’s actually an enjoyable drive!
It was a great place to be
The heating wasn't hot enough but I was oky
We we're looking for somewhere quiet as our daughter was competing over the weekend. It was peaceful and close to the village where there is a lovely pub with amazing food. Would highly recommend .
Lovely comfortable apartment, very clean and nice quiet location.
Location is is in the country side. Quiet and peaceful. A lovely spot if you want a place away from hustle and bustle. Very relaxing.
The bed was uncomfortable. It was the only downside to an otherwise perfect stay.
Kitchen requires some maintenance.
Our room was clean and comfortable. The property was very quiet, which was nice after staying in the city. The bonus for us, the place had a washer which we needed.
The studio was clean, warm and had all the facilities I needed for my stay. All my expectations of the property were met through the photos, the property description and through the owner herself. Would definitely recommend. Thanks a mil for the stay Gael.
Lovely oasis.. decorated really nicely and comfy bed
The location was perfect for us …. Great little pub within walking distance which is open a few days a week
was an extra welcoming touch.
We had an amazing stay! The location is great and very quiet! The hosts are so friendly and also welcoming. We recommend the place to anyone who wants to be in a nice a quite place and also it is close to Dublin and Galway!
It was lovely and quirky
I liked it
Private, well equipped. Nice peaceful area.
Nothing
roomy, had sufficient cooking amenities
Given the style of accommodation had a mismatch of furniture including a very high small round table, difficult to sit at and awkwardly placed.. Floral decor over lights was a Nuisance, Tea facilities but no milk. Advertised with washing and dryer but not located in this appt. Separate bathroom but shared hot water system. Very difficult to get up and down driveway. No TV
The location was perfect for someone with a car as it was 15-17 mins drive from Athlone city centre and the surrounding area was gorgeous. Without a car, I don't think getting to Athlone would be easy and we didn't explore the area around Mount Temple/Moate so wouldn't know about the convenience of things there. The loft itself was very clean and fully equipped for everything we could possibly need including a washing machine, microwave, pots, pans, utensils, cutlery, plates and even cooking oil, some herbs and seasonings etc. The studio apartment itself was beautifully decorated and well maintained. The bed was very comfy and cosy as was the room itself. There were even some board games in the cupboard for family fun. There was a fire pit outside that could be used as well as some chairs but didn't get a chance to use that. Loved the extra perk of two cutie dogs to greet you every morning. Gael the owner was away for the weekend but we communicated through messages and she was absolutely lovely, kept making sure we were having a good time and if we needed anything. She even allowed us a late checkout as we were enjoying our stay so much that we didn't want to leave. The place had more charm, comfort and homeliness than I've experienced anywhere else. We are DEFINITELY staying here again.
Nothing.
Super apartment in a lovely village with a pub close by serving delicious food. We loved the apartment and hoping we can come back
Lovely, cute little apartment. We had an amazing few days, spending time with family, then returning to our cosy space. It’s such a peaceful location, birds singing and two wonderful friendly dogs to greet us. The bed was so comfortable! Would definitely recommend.
Cozy and beautiful. With a lovely view. Close to food and pub. Close to shopping. Loved this little place had an amazing time.
The Restaurant was only open ThursdaySunday. But no worries more option in Moate a short drive away.
Very lovely owners Private Fully equipped kitchen
N/a
Very comfy bed. My daughter and I were shattered after all day at a running meet so we needed sleep. That made all the difference.
Soundproofing. Everything that happened above happened below, but as the occupants above were having an early night, it worked fine.
Nice and colourful and relaxing
The feeling of the place - very relaxed and surrounded by nature. Mount Temple is only a very short walk if you want food and a pub also. Gael is a wonderful host and will always help to make the stay perfect. We even got to enjoy the bonfire area even though it was coming into Winter when we stayed! The appartmets have everything you need for a nice escape in the country.
Nothing
It was atmospheric. Spacious and well set up.
Easy to find with large parking area. Friendly owners, who were available for any issues, but otherwise respected privacy. The accommodation was lovely - spacious, comfortable, warm, shower excellent, kitchen in good working order - really enjoyed coming back there after a long day at work!
There is a similar studio flat below - I was in the loft space, which was lovely. Sound-proofing wasn't good between the two flats - TV and talking could be heard - although I was in bed by 9:30!
Very peaceful spot. Spacious, comfortable apartment. Nice view into the garden. Helpful hosts with friendly dogs!
It was all as expected.
Lovely village, lovely people, lovely host, lovely setting for a cozy get away holiday. I can live there for a lifetime.
Perfect for a walk into Mount Temple and it had everything you need. The cimpliimentary tea and coffee was a lovely surprise and very welcome each morning
Lovely room with all the facilities you'll need. Really liked the location and a big thank you to Gael the host, for her help. Thoroughly recommend it.
Loved the decoration, the books available, the quietness of the location, and friendliness of the hosts.
I stay in lots of hotels. They all lack soul. This has it by the bucketload.
