I was really happy to stay with Eleanor, Mark and Harry for 3 months. The house is so beautiful. They are really welcoming, lovely people and I really like their sense of humour. It was the best accommodation for my semester in Ireland.

I stayed with Eleanor, Mark and Harry for one week and it was just like home from home they are welcoming and their house is so beautiful. The room was beautiful and the bed was so comfy. The breakfast was plentiful and the garden was gorgeous too. There isn’t enough stars for the rating of this home. I look forward to going back already :)

it’s a pleasure to meet Eleanor and Mark,, I stayed with them for 6 Months because I had an internship with the company Teagasc. The house is beautiful and lovely,, totally liked the decorations and how it’s clean and tidy every day. Eleanor gave me several lessons in Cooking and baking. she totally cooks tasty cakes and meals. I had also a driving lesson with Mark and he is amazing in explaining everything with easy ways. They have a lovely dog and he never bites, very quiet dog & trained. I have a great time & fun with my lovely Mom Eleanor, we visited wonderful places and did shopping a lot together. I recommend to you to stay with them, Google Maps might show that the house is far away from the town but there is a short cut road with 25 min walking. Thanks, Eleanor and Mark and see you in My graduation day ..
العائله جميله والبيت نظيف ومرتب ،، إلينور ومارك طيبين وماقصرو معاي واستمتعت بالإقامة عندهم ،، تعلمت الطبخ منها والسواقه من مارك ،، تمشينا مع بعض وتسوقنا كانت مثل الام لي .
طبخ مارك وإلينور راقي وأطباق جميله افضل من المطاعم خاصه كيكات إلينور طعمه فضيع ،،
عندهم كلب لكن هادئ وأبداً مايطلع الدور اللي فوق عند الغرف ف اللي يخاف من الكلاب ومايحبها ف عادي كلبهم له مكان خاص ،،
بيتها ٢٥ دقيقه مشي للسنتر لاني كنت اعمل تدريب كان اقرب لي بيتها بس لكن يظل للسنتر مو بعيد ،،
عائله متعاونه ولطيفة جدا انصح فيها ،،October 2018
كنت محظوظة اني اخترت اسكن عندها كانت تجربة مره حلوه. إلينور انسانة جدا مهتمة و العائلة بشكل عام رحبو فيني خصوصا كلبها هاري.
(lol كلبها ما يعض لا تخافو)
حقيقي إلينور شخصيتها مرحة و مستحيل انسى هروجنا كل يوم في طريق الجامعة
البيت نظيف يلمع و كل يوم ترتب و تنظف الغرفة ،، يفتح النفس مهو غمة ،، موقعه في حي امن
و كطالبة اخترت اني اشمل الوجبات ضمن السكن برسوم اضافية اكلها لذيذ افضل من اكل المطاعم خصوصا انه الخيارات محدودة في المنطقة على الوجبات السريعة شخصيا الاكل في البيت كان يناسبني.
I'm very glad that I had this precious experience. Eleanor has been a great supporter to me, the family were incredibly welcoming including their dog Harry <3. Honestly she's a lovely gorgeous woman with a great knowledge I won't forget our daily car conversations on the way to college.
During my stay there I overcome my fear of dogs, Obviously because of harry.
Oh another thing, be smart with mark's jokes!
Let's talk about the house :
Sparkling clean and well organized - Cozy - Stylish - Safe area.
As a student staying over I chose to include the meals for an additional cost and i didn't regret it her food was amazing.August 2018
Notre séjour chez Eléanor était super, c'est une dame adorable. Sa maison est coquette et agréable. Nous nous sommes beaucoup plus. Thank you Eleanor. You are very nice and you welcome us so kindly.

I was with Eleanor and Mark during 4 weeks. They welcomed me as a member of the family. Thanks to them my trip in Irlande was just amazing. If you want to share lovely moments with amazing and typical Irish people that's the best place to be. Besides, the house is always very clean. And they also have Harry, a really lovely little dog who will also be glad to welcome you. I found the perfect place to stay over there and I'll definitely come back, for sure.
