I think the cost of electricity should be included in the price of booking. We were charged €80 as soon as we walked in along with refundable deposit. Kind of put a dampner on the start of holiday, plus there’s no way anyone would use €80 worth of elsee more
I think the cost of electricity should be included in the price of booking. We were charged €80 as soon as we walked in along with refundable deposit. Kind of put a dampner on the start of holiday, plus there’s no way anyone would use €80 worth of electricity in a week, we worked it out to roughly €40 & that’s because we left emersion on & used heaters just to get some value from it, install meter if worried about high costs

Just spent a great week here, host is friendly and helpful. The house is very well equipped and spacious and has everything you need. Very near to some lovely beaches and close enough to Kilrush for shops and restaurants. Will be back in the summer.

Expensive accommodation so the rubbish disposal should be included in the price (7 euro). Visitors should not be advised to drive 8 miles to take their rubbish to the recycling .

We had to bring all bins - general waste and recycling to a waste depot. This is a great inconvenience when one is on holiday to have to travel to sort out bins.
