There is underfloor geothermal heating with constant hot water and marble tiled floors throughout the cottage.
The holiday home is on a 1.5 acre site that slopes down to the shores of Dunlewey Lake – the fencing is designed to keep the Glenveagh Estate deer from enjoying the landscaped grounds! A nice feature of the garden is the patio area with sculpted granite furniture.

I just wanted to let you know that we had a fabulous break at your house. We felt comfortable right from the very first moment we walked into the house, and I think it even surpassed expectations I had of it from the website photos or description. A wonderful, beautiful, peaceful location. We wanted to stay!
Can I also take this opportunity to say that Margaret and Pat were extremely helpful and friendly, without ever being intrusive. It was lovely to meet them both.
