I converted part of my studio into an apartment, using as many reused materials as possible. This gives it a unique character with many artistic details. The studio is next to my residence, surrounded by the garden. The entrance to the apartment is on the side of the studio a has its own entrance. I am a gardener at heart and have a natural garden with a wide variety of plants, native and exotic. Respect for nature and wonder at what grows and flourishes is essential to my approach. The gardens are open by appointment. I am regularly working in the studio myself, so if there are questions I am easy to find. There is a dry compost toilet in the outbuilding next to the apartment. There is a sofa bed in the living area for the third guest to sleep.

    Very tastefully decorated, not for luxury animals. I really enjoyed the beautiful warm colors, art on the wall and the warm blankets and pillows in the cottage. Via outside to the composting toilet I found quite interesting, but a bit less comfortable. Otherwise, I liked everything about the cottage. The owner of the nature house also received us very friendly and helpful and especially for us (because I am allergic to perfume), provided perfume-free bedding, towels and dish soap.Thank you!

    I thought it was all very beautiful. We arrived on the little road that leads to the owner's house. That little road has a sort of roof of bushes/trees trimmed by passing cars. From the cottage we had a view over a fairly dense very green piece of garden. The only neighbors we could see from the cottage were birds and insects. The nature house is adjacent to the owner's studio. That is in the middle of her beautiful, pleasantly cluttered garden. And across the road from which the house is located is a second part of the garden, which we could use. This piece of garden had grassy paths among the herbs, shrubs and trees and views over a nearby lake. Too bad it wasn't warmer in early October, when we were there, because a morning cup of coffee with that view would have been nice too.

    Wonderful place in a beautiful setting: you do have to walk to the hinterland, there it is magnificent.

    For walks or a bike ride, you first had to go some distance along a dangerously fast track, but that's a typical Irish problem!

    The owner was very sympathetic and welcoming. The garden was extremely beautiful. We enjoyed the tranquility and the beautiful surroundings.

The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation.
