“where I'd like to spend my life !” quiet, clean, fantastic house, ideal for family with small children, away from everything. perfect for my idea of perfect vacation.

“Magical” My husband and I have stayed in ivy cottage,its very comfortable and cosy especally with the open fireplace plenty of room for holiday cottage and all essential's catered for and lots of pease and quite. There is plenty to do in the surrounding areas golf only 9km in Templemore,fishing and plenty of walks and sightseeing,but just to sit in the picknic area and look across to the fields and mountains is really breathtaking,plus walking around pet farm. Our host Mr M Odonnell is most welcomning making sure you have everything you need to enjoy your holiday to the full.

“Perfect views & comfort on Lake Como” Believe it or not, the photos don't do it justice -- the views and house are even more beautiful. It's also perfectly situated for visiting Bellagio, and all of the wonderful villas and towns nearby -- that is, if you can tear yourself away from the views. Monkia, the manager, was attentive and informative and warm -- the restaurant and touring recommendations were terrific. SO much nicer than staying in a hotel -- even if a hotel had THOSE VIEWS.

“Special experience” I have been invited by Carlo several times by now. The first time I went there I expected a beautiful home, since he had showed me some pictures. Nevertheless I was not prepared to the feeling of warmth, to the elegance and to the decor of the apartment (the building and the small garden are very nice too!). Bellagio is a most fascinating village with a unique view of lake, mountains and country hills. Cà Maria is a perfect setting to enjoy this miniature heaven from its balcony that overlooks a very quiet corner of the lake. We explored the area around, practiced sport, did shopping and went to good restaurants. In the evening or at mid day it was inviting to go back home and feel the breeze from the lake; to rest with a glass of wine on the balcony or to fall asleep on the magnificient king size bed made each end of the day perfect. Carlo is a charmig host and has the gift to make you fell welcome. Every stay had been special, I believe that the only downside of the place is to leave it.

“Comfortable, homely and well placed.” The chalet had just finished building work so we were the first in! It is spacious, comfortable and a great place to relax after a hard days skiing. We have always stayed in Chatel, so abondance was merely a place we passed on the road. What a mistake. We grew to love abondance and even skied the local small pistes up the road. The chalet has been adorned with all the mod cons and the beds were especially comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed for our two families to eat well. The chalet is well situated, quietly laying back off the main square, but near enough for a quick walk to the local bars, restaurants and post office. All in all, a nice modern, relaxed place in a great location.

“Beautiful House, Magnificent Setting” This house certainly has the wow factor when you walk in. If you are looking for a private Ireland holiday home then this is it. Can't even describe the magnificent views that you see from the many large windows. Bright, spacious, clean and comfortable. Loved being able to do laundry and hang it out to dry in the sunshine. Spent many hours relaxing on the patio. Cooked several meals and had everything we needed. Had a cozy peat fire every evening. Kathleen and Timmy made sure we were settled in and had everything we needed-they are just super-nice people! We particularly enjoyed the Skellig Ring which was only 20min or so away and then over to Valentia Island and going up to Fogher Mtn. Also enjoyed Derrynane, shopping in Sneem and Caherciveen and the drive to Hogshead. A good daytrip was going to Beara Pennisula, shopping in Kenmare and visiting Glenquiliquin (many good hikes). I wish I had asked Katheen earlier in the week about what pubs to visit for local performances. This house far exceeded our expectations and I feel very lucky to have been able to stay here!

“Great place to stay for families!” This was our first summer holiday with our 2 year old son and our hosts provided us with a cot and a high chair for him. We were happy to find that the place was safe (sturdy banister, switches for plugs and oven, boilers in separate rooms) for a - supervised - small child and can recommend it without reserve for families (Being only in three, we used of course not all rooms). The cottage is located in a beautiful spot and we really enjoyed the clean, breezy air and the great views of both the seaside and the surrounding mountains.

“A DELIGHTFUL SETTING FOR AN EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCE” We found this beautifully maintained house, modern but in the French style, quiet yet perfectly situated for travel though South West France. We visited Carcasonne,Toulouse, Narbonne, Andorra, the Western Riviera, even Barcelona Spain, easily by car from there in a day, finding the Limoux house a delight to return to and relax in after sightseeing. Accomodation for families, or up to four couples, makes the house very affordable, yet it has the feeling of a very intimate and special place. Its small but private grounds, plus the scenery and many fine restaurants in Limoux itself, make it an ideal place for a holiday: one we intend to repeat just as soon as we can.

“Serene time in Munster” Maison Bellevue was a great surprise for me! It is very central to the small town of Munster and the train station. It's ideal for people who want to escape the big city hustle and bustle but yet want to be able to commute to other places without difficulty. I found the apartment to be very satisfactory, everything I needed was catered for and found in my room including Wi-Fi! Access to my lodgings was unobtrusive and I could come and go at anytime of the day without interference. I did day trips to Strasbourg, Freiburg in Germany and Basel in Switzerland. The owners were specially helpful and give me very advice about things to do and the restaurants to try out. I love the tea room Chez annie, next to the the tourist office. I rented a bike just a few meters away from Bellevue apartments and went to explore the Munster Valley to Metzeral , I actually did it the lazy and put my bike on the train and rode down back to Munster , I stopped at the Clog maker in Breitenbach, the last in the area. I found that if you try to speak a little french , people are very helpful .

“Something special” We stayed at Ostir's Farm apartment for three days in July '13. The family is very hospitable and friendly and made us feel like being at home. The family shared local stories and even took us sightseeing. Furthermore they helped us plan some exiting trips in the area - visiting the disappearing lake, hiking the Snežnik mountain and exploring Križna jama Cave. All very special experiences that not many tourist have found (yet). We will definitely recommend Ostir's Farm apartments to others and we hope to return one day.
