Absolutely fabulous with a wonderful host in Liz! Very central location, exceptionally well appointed and clean. Modern too after refurb. Best of all was the owner, Liz, so friendly and personable. She actually called me to see if we were okay as we were running late. She is a lovely host with great countenance. A well appointed and beautiful property with private parking. I used to stay in Slieve Donard or Burrendale…. I will stay if back in Newcastle. We visited to see Irish Open golf.

We could have not asked for a better property or better hosts The location was fantastic. The bed was top notch and the bathroom was brand new and modern. Parking was easy. The best part of the property was the hospitality provided by the owners. Liz and John are the best hosts we have ever had. They are genuine and really cared about us having a great holiday. All of Liz’s recommendations were on the mark. Breakfast was perfect as well. If we come back to this region, we will stay here again. Lovely people.

Exceptional! The warm welcome from John who offered us tea when we arrived. Liz cooked a delicious breakfast to order. We loved the sympathetic restoration of our bedroom, which was airy and very comfortable. The house is a very short walk to the town but away from the noise which is always a bonus for us. Definitely somewhere I'd like to stay in again. It's obvious that Liz and John enjoy having guests in their lovely home.

Excellent location with a genuine welcome. We had a one-night stay at the Grey Heron. The room and all facilities were excellent. Liz and John provided a very warm and very genuine welcome, with an excellent breakfast, freshly cooked to order. They also had great advice on local sights and attractions. They are doing a wonderful job and we are already looking forward to a return visit!
