“Spotlessly clean, great attention to detail and comfort - very cosy and relaxing”
From our first night at the Jay's we felt at home - and best of all we felt very safe (covid-19 rules were still in place at the time of our stay). Judy give very clear instructions on access as well as friendly and helpful advice before our stay. Although the place was immaculate, it had been decorated and furnished in a way that made it feel cosy and welcoming. Everything spoke of quality and thoughtfulness. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds extremely comfortable. We found the big map of the Mournes in the hall very useful - as well as the guide books. We live in Belfast - so only 30 minutes away, but being able to walk out the front door of the Jays's and into the Mournes (via Tollymore) made it worth every penny. A very enjoyable and relaxing holiday.

“Lovely holiday home in view of the Mourne mountains”
The Jays was spotlessly clean, well equipped throughout and has a nice view of the Mourne mountains from the first floor living room. Extra measures had been taken to ensure we felt comfortable staying away from home in the current Covid circumstances - those were greatly appreciated. Sorry not to be able to meet you in person Judy, but you were attentive by text and made sure we had all we needed to enjoy our stay. We hope to make a return visit soon!

Superb holiday home in a beautiful location. Judy was so helpful and friendly and welcomed us on our arrival. Lovely fruit loaf waiting to enjoy with a cup of tea. House was so cosy, well equipped and clean. Ideally situated to enjoy all the local tourist attractions and activities The Mournes have to offer. We loved every moment of our stay and are eager to return at a future date.
