Outstanding! The host, Isaac, has a beautiful property that is very reasonably priced, and has every amenity one could possibly wish for. 5 stars all the way!
The apartment was ideally located near the village of Sion Mills. Suited our family very well for walking, fishing and golf.
The apartment was well kitted out, very comfortable and cosy. We are all looking forward to returning next year.
