100 year old farmhouse, tastefully extended, all rooms have private en-suite and views of surrounding countryside? This is our own home which we share with our three dogs, two golden retrievers and one black Labrador. The dogs are very friendly albeit a little scatty and love cuddles and lots of fussing . We have a total of over 21/2 acres which our guests are very welcome to wander around with or without our dogs and ball for company.
Retired to Ireland with our 3 dogs , 2 golden retrievers and 1 black Labrador 3 years ago
Very quite and peaceful with extensive views over farmland. We have a village Hall and Catholic Church within easy walking distance for the house. The town of Castlerea is a 15 minute drive and has everything for required, ie, shops, pubs, restaurants etc
