County Westmeath holiday house: Multyfarnham

Our week in the cottage was the highlight of our trip. The pictures don't do it justice. It is an extremely charming and cozy place to stay. the location is ideal for touring the midlands of Ireland. The Rock of Cashel, Clonmacnoise and Trim Castle along with many other sites are an easy day trip away. Multifarnham is a quiet country village with beautiful scenic views wherever you look.
The cottage itself is well equipped, (loved the towels), and only a few steps from a fantastic pub and restaurant. The food is ever so good, the best sirloin I've ever had, and the hospitality and warmth of Pat and Una are even better. They make you feel at home from the start and are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Thanks to Pat's help and guidance we were able to go places we would never have found using a guide book.
My only fear is that too many people will discover this fantastic spot and it won't be available for our next trip to Ireland.
I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get away from the bigger cities and enjoy the peace and tranquility of rural Ireland,

We stayed here for a week using it as a base, it was very easy to find, just off the main road. It is a beautiful converted barn that is very spacious and clean and has everything you would need, even down to reading material, local guides and towels. The pub (which is right in front of the barn) offers first rate food and drink and the hospitality was excellent. The hosts, Pat and Una, were always willing to help in any way they could. The train station is a short drive away (about 5 miles) and offers a good service to Dublin as well as other parts of the country. The village itself has an idyllic Friary you are welcome to explore along with several walks with stunning views of the nearby lakes. We were unlucky enough to be staying here in the rain and cold, however the heating was excellent and while inside we didn't feel the cold one bit.

Highly recommended, 5/5.

In our 10 days in Ireland staying in various self catering houses, this was the best place by far. The owners Pat and Una are truly gracious and always helpful, even though they are very busy with their pub/restaurant. The apartment was exactly as pictured in the ads and very comfortable. It was outfitted with everything one needs.
The food in the pub is outstanding. We never ate anywhere else while in the area. Also a good place to meet the local people in the evenings.
We highly recommend it.
