    We couldn't stay longer

    The yurt was incredibly comfortable and the setting was peaceful and unique. The breakfast was just amazing, we were staying over Easter Sunday and they threw in little chocolate rabbits which was a really nice touch. Overall it was one of the most welcoming and relaxing stays I've ever had.

    Nothing negative to say

    Facilities were excellent. Clean, comfortable and modern. Accomodation was stunning. And so comfortable and clean. The breakfast food basket in the morning with freshly baked items was unreal. The hosts were so welcoming and friendly. The location and grounds were beautiful. And so interesting

    The whole atmosphere, area and cabins were brilliant! So warm and cosy, absolutely loved our stay! Host went above and beyond, for our breakfast making freshly baked vegan goods each morning! Tasted amazing! Would definitely stay here again and for sure will recommend McClure Glamping

    Only a suggestion of having a hook in the toilet to hang a towel or toiletry bag.

    A great experience of my first time staying in a yurt. The yurt was soo cosy and warm. Breakfast was a lovely hamper with freshly baked pastries, coffee/tea, juice, yoghurt and fruit. Had a lovely and relaxing stay.

    I personally didn't mind hearing our neighbours (the donkeys) every morning, but I could see some people having an issue with that. The donkeys were adorable though.

    Everything was perfect. The yurt was cosier than any hotel room we've ever stayed in. The bed was the comfiest one imaginable. It was our first glamping experience but I can't see anything topping it. I'd happily stay here again!

    The yurt is understandably a colder place to stay and it had a damp smell , but that's hard to avoid .

    Such a unique stay , breakfast was such a treat and beautifully presented ! Bed was comfortable, everything you could need for a night away is in the yurt. Fantastic friendly hosts.

    The only small inconvenience has very little to do with the property itself, and more to do with country side Ireland. Advice: become familiar with local Taxi numbers, and how to call in a Taxi, as opposed to using an app like Uber. Some of the roads are nameless on the map, and Uber has a hard time finding you taxis. Once I figured out how to call in a taxi though, it was totally fine.

    A fantastic, Cozy sleeping area. After a long day of traveling to get there, hitting the soft comfy bed and sleeping through most of the next day was like a dream.

    It was a pity that the showers were communal, we would have preferred our own private one.

    The breakfast was really good. We had fresh pastries and orange juice etc., and, most importantly for us, fresh coffee from a coffee machine. The communal kitchen also provided us with somewhere to prepare meals. What we liked the most was the fantastic nights sleep,. My daughter and I have never had such a great sleep, even in 5 star hotels.
