“Absolutely pristine and delightful. A MUST book. My sister and I came for just a night and the host was lovely. The walk way was candle lit. She made us tea upon arrival, complete with shortbread and treats. Everything was 5 star hotel standards from the smallest detail like the heated towel rack, to the extravagant breakfast. It's all the charm of a B&B with the privacy and perfection of a hotel. Breakfast was incredible. I am a part time vegan, full time vegetarian and my sister is paleo so we can be picky. But, the host customized the menu items for us. The view from the breakfast table is rolling hills with charming cottages. Everything was locally sourced - the Rhubarb jam from the garden (incredible!) the yogurt from local jersey cows, etc. This B&B was the highlight of our entire Ireland and N. Ireland trip. We cannot recommend this more. We're telling our friends and family. So grateful for this hidden gem, we certainly hope to return!”

“Olive and Roger are thoughtful, considerate and very pleasant hosts. The rooms are nicely thought out and equipped. Breakfast was very tasty! The road is semi-busy, particularly at rush hour and trucks go by in the early morning, so it's not as quiet as the neighborhood seems like it should be. But much quieter than in the city centre! Many eateries within a 10-minute walk. The walk into city center is straightforward.”

“Came across the coffee shop last year and hoped to have the occasion to stay which happened this week. Very warm welcome in the driving rain. Nicely appointed rooms with clever touches; good water pressure and comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast and delicious coffee. Requested a room at the back and were very happy with the calm and quiet. Highly recommended.”

“We took our very sick Dog, Rosie, to James and his team on Wednesday morning. She had not eaten for 5 days and not drank for 3 days. We picked her up that afternoon and James assured us she would eat and would be fine. Two days later and she is almost back to her normal healthy self. We can't say enough good things about Voy vets and we thank you so much for all you have done.”

“One of the most charming B&B, I've ever stayed in. Stanley, the owner, welcomed us when we arrived at night. He's a nice and lovely man with great tips on things to see in the area. The room was clean and the decoration was beautiful. We loved it so much that we booked another time. Really a great and quiet place to stay when in Ireland. Well situated too.”

“Called in for a non emergency check up of my dog. Staff were very friendly, obviously pet lovers. The Vet was great. The clinical was modern and spacious. Been here a number of times, thankfully Mrs Popolopius was not seriously ill.”

“So I ordered stuff from their website (wish I lived closer so I could visit) and idiotically did two separate orders within the space of 10 minutes, and a little while later on got a phone call from one of the lovely ladies there asking if I could put the orders together and get one of the postage refunded! Noones ever called to give me a refund like that before! But the lady was super friendly and helpful! Will definitely order from here again! Also dexter loved it”

“Excellent service, staff are very helpful and friendly. The clinician took time with my dog and tried to relax him as best as possible. Checked him over very thoroughly without causing him him undue upset. Checked his medical records. Chat about the issues, symptoms and treatments. Dispatched his treatment effectively and efficiently. I need to return in 4 weeks for a check-up and booster which was booked for me then and there without any issue. It's never a nice place to take your pet but they made it as relaxed and efficient, ensuring my pet was as stressless as possible.”

Great manners with my pup.”
