1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
We stayed for one week as a family with our two daughters aged 11 and 18 years. Nobody knows heaven - so nobody can tell, is it a Black HOLE in the atmosphere...? But there is a place on Earth too few people know... The Black HILL! And if there exists a heaven on earth, I guess this should be the place - you really can reach the sky (if you are sitting on horse-back of course) and you have a circular (360 degree) view over 100 kms wide. Nobody will disturb you and if for some reason you want to hide (rain?), Clare, your guide, will bring you safely back and let you stay (or rest) in her fairytale house... There you can relax and 'fill up your senses' with all kinds of books and music ... even some singing (can you hear the angels singing??). Would you believe me, if I tell you this place REALLY exists!
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Who ever has the possibility to go there - forget the Irish rain and open your heart to enjoy this peaceful area and this holiday with horse whisperer Claire and her daughter Lilly.
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?
We, as a family, with a particular place in our hearts for horses, enjoyed the kindness, friendliness, and the sympathy, of this particular place. Would you believe me if I tell you that, on top of this all, the gastronomy, daily served by (angel) Lily, has more than a heavenly touch... Only the French wine is imported from earth... but... so divine!
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
I certainly can recommend it to all horse and people lovers.
