The guest house is located on a quiet road, well decorated, and extrem - My friend and I spent 4 nights at Shelleven Guest House. We found it to be comfortable and well-appointed, with a delicious breakfast menu. The owners, Mary and Phillip, couldn't have been more accommodating ... they even drove us to the train station when we left. The location is excellent, and we enjoyed the walk along the seaside promenade to restaurants for dinner so lovely ... a highlight of our stay in Ireland.

It felt like we were staying with family, each morning s - Astala Guest House is clearly recently renovated. Everything is new. And everything is spotlessly clean. The view of the waterfront was quite nice (I saw a wonderful sunrise). Breakfast was quite good. The WiFi worked well.

the staff were very helpful and welcoming. the room again was lovely and spacious. The food as always was excellent. - enjoyed having a room at front of hotel and also the pool facilities
