Cosy accommodation

The wood burner adds to the welcoming appeal of the bolt hole, which provided comfortably accommodation for my wife and I, along with our Irish Water Spaniels. This was our second visit to Durhamstown Castle and we'd certainly stay again.

Charming and quirky 14th century building with modern upgrades. Location is great, we enjoyed n excursion to New Grange. Hosts were very responsive. The kitchen has minimal utensils if you plan to cook.

Leider wusste keiner etwas von unserer Ankunft und es musste erst rumtelefoniert werden. Der Gutsbesitzer war sehr nett und man konnte sich gut mit ihm unterhalten. Die Unterkunft ist recht feucht, was aufgrund des Alters der Gemäuer nicht erstaunlich ist, aber es lief ein Luftentfeuchter, der auslief. Das Geschirr war teilweise schimmlig, sodass ein großer Teil abgewaschen werden musste, bevor man es nutzen konnte. Leider ging der vorhandene Geschirrspüler nicht an. Sobald man den Stecker wieder in die Steckdose gesteckt hat, nachdem man den Geschirrspüler erstmal unter der Arbeitsplatte hervorgezogen hat, und das Programm startete, kam die Sicherung und er lief aus. Daher musste ich das schimmlige Geschirr mit Hand abwaschen. Wir hatten für zwei Erwachsene und drei Kinder gebucht. Es gab nur 2 bezogene Doppelbetten. Ein 5. Bett war nicht vorbereitet. Alles in allem war es eine Erfahrung, aber ich würde nicht nochmal dort buchen.

excellent appartement proche de Dublin.

accueil sympathique, appartement plein de charme (en bas du chateau, il est un peu sombre). Il permet de bien visiter la région, y compris Dublin.
