"Pros: Everything! Really beautiful site in a quiet little village. Our hut was right next to the stream so we fell asleep to the sound of the water each night. The hut was lovely and warm and plenty of hot water on demand. Bed was so comfy and all the little furnishings in it just made it feel so homely.the village has a cute little cafe that you can paint mugs and other little ornaments in and has some lovely jewelry to buy in it as well. The small village is great for bird watching too as you're right on the Shannon estuary. We liked it so much we booked an extra night while there as we didn't want to leave! Will definitely stay here again when we have the chance ☺️" ~Katie

"Pros: When you first drive into Labasheeda, you cannot help but thinking that this might be the literal and of the world (peninsulas sometimes give you that impression, I guess). However, when we found our temporary home then, met our lovely host and later her two dogs, we could not help but falling in love with that small village, which seems fallen out of time in a very good way. The friendliness of the people is only surpassed by the friendliness of all the dogs we met there. Obviously, nobody needs watchdogs in Labasheeda and this is a good thing, isn’t it? In the pub (you can’t really miss “Caseys” on the Main Street but you need to know that you have to pass a hallway right beside the small store to get in), the locals told us about the families who have lived there for generations and their struggles to keep the town alive with people getting older or finding jobs far away from Labasheeda (actually, one fellow we chatted with went as far as Perth, Australia). On the other hand, locals returned from far away and created new businesses like the wonderful “Charm Bee”, a family run pottery painting studio and café. Down at the local pier, we could witness a young horse changing hands like they must have done it for hundreds of years at this exact place … Traditions that connect the past, present and future. The land is old, too. The small roads connecting the properties, the old farms, lots of (friendly) cows and a beautiful landscape need to be mentioned, too, to make this brief review complete. So, things move along and Labasheeda is neither literally nor metaphorically the end of the world, it is just a wonderful place to visit. Go there, bring some time and find something that has become rare these days: rest and time to contemplate." ~Steffen-sebastian

"Pros: The house was beautifully decorated it is an old house but the owner had managed to keep a lot of its character. Everyone in our group was impressed. Loved the karaoke bar area felt like we were out for the night. Had so much fun down there and the lovely gift that was left for the birthday girl. A real personal touch Cons: There is always room for improvement no matter where you go . The ramp to the front of the house was difficult for the older people in our group to climb BUT we did have access around the back of the house to enter we only found that out later. It’s such a big house a walk around with the owner would have saved a lot of trying to figure out how things work but she was quick to reply to any of my questions on the weekend" ~Siobhan
