"Pros: Our hosts were very helpful and gave us great advice, which sights are worth travelling to. Philipp knows the best places, especially concerning good food and marvellous places. His Place is very well equipped with all the stuff you need. The Garden and the views from their home is breathtaking. We will surely return." ~Stephan

"Pros: Lovely comfortable stay. Very cosy and warm and very close to the town." ~Laura

"Pros: As you climb the winding road up toward the Laughing Seagull you can almost feel the quietness start to descend. Beara’s scenery has charm but also an almost medicinal quality to it. The air in your lungs certainly feels easier to breathe. And be prepared for another intake of breathe when you reach the cottage. Beautifully appointed—offering all the comforts of a well-designed home—The Laughing Seagull still eludes and maintains a deep connection to the surrounding nature and its hill top location. Designed with relaxation in mind, every detail has been carefully considered to create a peaceful, retreat-like atmosphere, allowing guests to truly unwind. What sets the Laughing Seagull apart is the thoughtful manner in which Hanna and Alan have shared their own love for the space with you. Their attention to detail and desire to make you feel at home, make you feel like a welcome guest rather than just a visitor. And that means you have nothing more to do than just be. Whether you’re enjoying the morning chorus with a cup of coffee, taking in the natural beauty that surrounds you, or simply resting in the cozy, inviting interiors, it’s easy to feel at peace here, to reconnect with yourself, nature, and the people you love. The best part? When it comes time to leave The Laughing Seagulls spoon full of goodness will have helped that West of Ireland medicine go down." ~Gary
