What a stunning vista. The outlook from our cottage was breath taking. Everything in the cottage was to a high standard. It was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast basket was yummy. There was juice, cereal, toast and honey. A great place to stay in the country.

The care taker Michael was also wonderful, very accomodating and passionate about the property. He even gave a tour of the ground. Very unique experience.

The location was beautiful. The room was clean with comfy beds and the breakfast hamper filled with local produce was the best! Very limited phone reception in the area and the wifi was practically non existent which made it difficult to communicate with our large group.

it was a very friendly experience, and brilliant for guests at the wedding on-site. A special extra was hearing the history of the property and taking the tour of house and out buildings next morning. We would like to have known that bedroom and bathroom were on different floors; it would have made a difference to our decision to stay there. we would also like a little more hanging positions in the bedroom.

Country homestead luxury B&B

I spent two nights mid-week in a tastefully decorated and cosy accommodation at The Barracks. The breakfast baskets were very generous and delicious. The backdrop of the Tocal countryside and homestead was lovely. Very relaxing, and the I very much enjoyed the caretaker’s complimentary tour of the historic homestead.
