    Absolutely loved this place! Was made to feel at home as soon as we arrived and plentiful amenities. The host was super friendly and very inviting even giving suggestions as to where was open since we came in the off season. Not sure how anyone...

    The homestay was very friendly and relaxed. The hosts were brilliant. They emphasised before we arrived that breakfast was provided only on a do it yourself basis and was not a cooked breakfast. This didn't really matter to us and overall the stay...

    Jake is an amazing host. Very kind of helpful. I really enjoyed my 2 nights stay at Sona Baile. The place is in Dooagh which is close to Croaghaun. It suited me well as my main purpose of this trip was to climb the highest sea cliff in Ireland.
