We stayed with Carole and Kevin for 5 days and it could not have been any nicer. Great hosts and wonderful spot to relax and also see everything that Ireland has to offer. Would not hesitate to go back there again. Please tell Sally and Rosie hi from all of us.

Our stay at this Whitegate cottage was amazing. The two-story cottage was perfect. Hosts Carole & Kevin had food and site-seeing recommendations and they were always spot-on. Do not hesitate to book with accommodation. As my friend wrote, "A beautiful place of healing and natural adventure. Hard clear stars on the dark, night sky. I may have left, but this place will never leave me."

Carole and Kevin have an amazing place that makes you breathe deep and relax. The place is exactly what is listed and so far has the most comfy bed of our trip (and we’ve stayed at 6 places already)! It’s a little off the beaten path but that’s what’s so wonderful. You truly can rest and rejuvenate. Carole and Kevin made us feel like family - they shared their home and their stories, and I cried as I drove away. The dogs, ducks, chickens and let us not forget the donkeys all add to the experience. My only regret is we booked so many things to do I couldn’t spend as much time there as I would have liked. If you’re on the fence and reading this - BOOK IT! You won’t be sorry.

We really enjoyed our stay at the farm. It was perfect for our Toddler who loved interacting with all the animals they keep. She had plenty of room to run around and the hosts were extremely warm and pleasant with their hospitality. Would definitely book again.

We couldn't have been happier with our vacation stay in this historic stone cottage near Lough Derg. Carol and Kevin were extremely helpful, finding us pubs with live music, great restaurants, and seeing that we had everything that we needed, and more. We really enjoyed the farm animals, birds, and plants on their property and along the lovely country roads that wind along the shores of the Lough. Would love to go back for another vacation some day !

Our family stayed for eleven days in Craigmyle Cottage which is located in the courtyard of the Willamstadt House. The property is rich with history, surrounded by beautiful farmland and is a short walk to the lake. Our hosts Kevin and Carole welcomed us with open arms. Kevin delighted us with his stories and Carole was an invaluable asset with her vast knowledge of Ireland, things to see, places to visit, and even made us reservations for dinner at local pubs. The donkeys, chickens, ducks, and sweet pups made our stay even more delightful.

The whole experience at Williamstead was like an Irish Fairy Tale. The beautiful surroundings, the friendly animals, and most gracious hosts made the experience something we will never forget. Carole and Kevin are very knowledgeable about the area and tell the best stories. One of my favorite things was sitting in the courtyard in the morning, drinking coffee, and talking with them. They have truly found their calling and we will be back!

Carole & Kevin along with their dogs Rosie & Sally made our visit so memorable. Certainly cannot forget their donkeys Stella & Toby! We felt like family & thats not even mentioning the comfort of the house! The property was beautifully charming & perfect as the home base for the 2nd leg of our trip. Comfortably fit the 4 of us with the coziness of being "home". I would recommend this property 100 times over for a true Ireland experience. Clean, comfortable, cozy & quaint. Thank you!!! Carrie & The Lake family

We had a lovely experience at Williamstadt House! Carole and Kevin were amazing hosts. The cottage was charming, welcoming and comfortable. We loved the beautiful pastoral setting and enjoyed the local vibe as well as day trips to The Burren, Cliffs of Moher and Galway. I highly recommend this VRBO
