"We liked how clean and fresh this property was. We found it very comfortable. Milk, teabags, coffee, wheaten bread, butter, cheese, oil and spices were all provided, as well as fresh flowers. There was an abundance of local animals to enjoy watching: horses, cows, sheep and housemartins. The pool table in the sun room was a welcome addition. All the bedrooms were spacious with excellent quality bedding. The downstairs master suite was particularly attractive. We would love to return! "

North West Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel so nice we have booked again for our return trip 🙂"

The Harbour House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Best value hotel of our trip and the most comfy huge bed too. Ate at the hotel in the evening and that was tasty and good sized portions and a view of the sea from room and restaurant. The price was so good, they should be charging more, especially for breakfast. Staff were all friendly and helpful."

Where better to enjoy the hot tub in this delightful and private garden.

10/10 Excellent

"What can I say about Kinvara except WOW! It was FANTASTIC! We stayed for 4 nights, and because Kinvara is so spacious and disabled accessible we were able to bring my Dad, who has Parkinson's and, with that, mobility issues. Being a bungalow with step free ramped access and having the grab rails in the bathrooms and the wet room was just perfect for our needs. We had 5 adults and 3 kids and there was more than enough room for all of us. All the rooms were so spacious with plenty of storage for clothes, and the dining area was just beautiful, overlooking the garden and the field of sheep behind. The kids loved the garden and the play area with the pool table and dart board and loved sitting playing board games in the dining room with all the natural light coming in. The house heated up really quickly too when the central heating was on which was great for Dad. It was super cosy for him sitting in the living room reading his paper or watching tv while we prepared dinner- and the wee hatch through to the kitchen meant we could still see him and he could shout if he needed anything! It honestly ticked all the boxes for us, we are booking again for next year!! The location is excellent, a great play park 2mins from the property and a short walk to shops and into town. Such a beautiful place to stay and lovely owner! Every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kinvara. Highly recommend!!"
