Gorgeous converted boat house, very clean, very comfortable, fabulous location, lovely and attentive hosts.
You need to bring an electric blanket or hot water bottle for the bed if you visit in the depths of winter.

The property was. Lovely
Close to town
There was a patch of plastic grass outside the front door , I’m aware it had rained on our first nite , but this plastic grass held the water & it didn’t add much to the welcome to the stay

Absolute Great location ,cute & quaint studio /apartment 🥰
All good just 2 quick fixes ..
1.Bit of a let down when we found only 1 Prosecco /champagne glass in the press ☹️
2.A few more coat hangers be appreciated

location was very good all amenities were close by, The studio was well furnished and very clean, overall a lovely place
The key box code we were given was incorrect, a phone call to the owner however quickly resolved this issue and we were given the correct code. Due to the studio apartment being close to a main road there was some traffic noise.
Although it was advertised as having WiFi it was not available and a request for the access code was not received
It would benefit from having a least two full sized hand towels and a bread knife.

It was perfect for a night away. Great location very clean. Will definitely book again
Not a lot
If I could change anything I’d like less road noise so we could sit outside longer. That’s not the properties fault.

Nice and cosy
The front into house deck is broken so it needs fixed as hard walk into property

Loved the location right beside the sea and walking distance to all local restaurants and bars.
We were under the impression that the upper area was part of the property.

The property was beautiful and it is the best we spot in Carlingford. Will definitely be back

Roomy, well presented, close to Castle, shops, bars. Being an old medieval building made it more special.
Difficult to find as it’s not on Newry Street, but waterfront drive.

This was a lovely quirky property on the waterfront with a lovely patio to sit out on. Had all the facilities necessary for a short weekend break. Exceeded our expectations and would most definitely recommend and book again.

Wonderful location, beautiful cosy boat house overlooking the Lough. Everything you could need for a few nights stay and the bed was very comfy. Communication was quick and owner was helpful when we had to call about accessing the property.
Ventilation in the bathroom was poor meaning it smelt quite damp and there was no shower gel. Also no WiFi or a welcome book, not something we needed but would be nice for visitors staying longer.

Nice waterfront location close to town. Quirky 'boathouse' decor made it feel quite homely. Perfect place for a one night stay.

Breakfast n/a
Location was very central, easy walks to all sights, restaurants, pubs etc
Heating worked well, making the room quite cosy on a wet, cold night.
Kitchen area equipped with all you needed.
A little difficult to find initially, steps down to the property with no hand rail.
There was no parking allowed directly outside but free parking was available close by. We went out of season so no issues with parking but it may differ on busier dates.
It would have made a difference if the heating had been on prior to our arrival on a dark, wet night!

Everything was fabulous. Couldn’t fault it, spotless clean all over. Quirky wee spot, will definitely come back!
The towels.
I didn’t bring my own as it said towels were provided. There was only two very old thin towels for two people sharing, would’ve liked another for my hair but that is the smallest complaint everything else was wonderful

Lovely accommodation , excellent location.
Some extra towels would be great.
