    Beautiful property, lovely views out over the valley and owner has retained great original features from old barn but combined them with modern comfort. The owners were fab, very welcoming, genuinely interested in where we were going on our day trips but not intrusive. The welcome pack of bread, butter, jam, coffee and milk etc. was a lovely touch - would really recommend this as a great place to stay and in a central location for touring western Northern Ireland and for Donegal.

    Property is excellent. Really comfortable and well equipped. We really enjoyed sitting looking at the beautiful view out of the picture window and appreciated the fresh flowers, wheaten bread and jam. Hosts looked after us well. Very welcoming and brought us extra firewood when needed. Only problem was that we had not received arrival information by morning of our stay and had to contact the help centre. Once in the property however, everything was 5 star.

    This beautiful property is a hidden gem on the outskirts of Omagh, County Tyrone and is one which is sure to please. Featuring two bathrooms and two bedrooms, it will easily accommodate a family on vacation and looking for a place to stay in the heart of the Sperrin Mountains! The location offers a very convenient location to many major attractions including the Beaghmore Standing Stones, the OM Dark Sky Park, the Gortin Glen Forest Park, and three giant sculptures who tower over the landscape are a sure hit with adults and children alike. We were delighted with the welcoming basket as provided by Bernie and Charlie who live right across the street and made sure we had tea, coffee, milk, sugar, a cake, as well as a fire which was prepared to warm us upon our arrival. They took time to check in on us to see if we needed anything else, and spent some time chatting while exploring our Irish roots and our histories. They could not have made us feel more welcome! The one issue we did have was intermittent wifi. We had reached out to the owner but did not receive a response. Bernie and Charlie did check in with us three days later and let us know that this issue is problematic throughout the whole area which is beyond their control. Definitely recommended as a place to stay but do so for more than three nights (we did six nights) as to allow ourselves the time to explore this stunning area of the north of Ireland without trying to cram everything in! 5 Stars!

    The cottage was fantastic. Only suggestion is bigger beds.

    Oh my goodnes...this is the most wonderful place! So many small touches that made it special, plus it's extremely comfortable, the hosts are lovely, flowers - gorgeous, view -spectacular...I would love to go back for a longer stay. I gave the location only three stars because there isn't anything in walking distance, but there are stores, pubs and restaurants a shortish drive away. Be warned that the restaurants seem to have very limited hours. For us this was a small price to pay, but it might be an issue for others, or for those making a longer stay. We were happy with each of the places we stayed - in Dublin, Derry, Belfast, and Bushmills, but this was by far the most memorable.
