Cluain Ard is a beautiful comfortable home finished to a very high standard with all mod cons, and more. It was such a treat (photos don't do it justice! ) It was ideal for our family get together with enough room to be together and yet space to step aside also. Our host was extremely helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend this property.
