"Fantastic safe relaxing stay at the cottages" Stayed at Thatcher rest cottage with friends recently for three nights. What a fantastic find. Excellent facilities and the house was equipped with every thing you could want. The view from front window onto bettystown beach made it must to see the sun rise every morning, followed by long walks on the beach.

"A little piece of paradise" We have just returned from a perfect 5 night stay in The Garden Cottage. We were anxious about our first trip away from home after Covid 19, but shouldn’t have worried at all. We received an extremely informative email two hours before our arrival with a link to a video about what would happen at our check in. Everything had been incredibly well thought out.
We couldn’t have been more delighted with our cottage - EVERYTHING is supplied for a self catering stay (oven, hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer and coffee machine) . The cottage was beautiful and extremely comfortable, and we were delighted with the delicious fresh scones and home made jam (baked by the owner Liz) that had been left in the cottage for us.
There is hand sanitiser attached to all the keypads around the site and hand sanitiser and soap in the cottages. The check in process was completed easily with social distancing measures put in place. I witnessed the cleaning team regularly clean everything - especially the bin areas, keypads and the children’s play areas.
The cottage itself was absolutely spotless - I honestly couldn’t find any fault at all!!!!! The gardens surrounding the cottage are spectacular and aroma from the beautiful flowers just adds to the whole experience.
Liz (the owner) is a really lovely friendly lady, who enjoyed taking care of the beautiful plants and flowers which surround the cottages. She was so helpful and friendly and extremely welcoming - as were all the staff that we met!!
Our daughter was delighted with the thatched play cottages and swings in the play area which was right in front of our cottage. We spent our evenings barbecuing and eating at the picnic table whilst she played.
All of this on the doorstep of a beautiful beach where we spent our days paddling, playing ball games and building sand castles.
We had such a relaxing stay that we booked a return stay before we left.
