A home base for the National Celtic folk festival
The house is located in a quiet street about a five minute drive from the festival site. It was clean and had all the necessary items for a comfortable stay. The beds were comfortable and the house was spacious enough for four adults and two kids to relax in

Attention to detail, unmatched!
Upon arriving, the property and house were very clean and tidy. The location was great. What made this rental stand out for us was the attention to detail. Everything we needed (with a 6 & 9 year old) was there. Excess of cleaning products, laundry, kitchen etc.. A stocked pantry with essentials and a few extras (GF Crackers & more) A stocked bathroom with body product including a family size sun block and moisturizer. We bring a lot of these products wherever we stay, but sometimes forgets items. Half moon casa, covered us for one or two of those forgotten items.

Fantastic location with only a short walk to a beach suitable for little ones. Spacious house with big rooms and a great under cover outdoor area and secure backyard. Easy to keep clean with no carpet to worry about. Everything you need in the kitchen and a quiet street. Overall, a very relaxing holiday. Highly recommended.

Lovely Weekend Getaway
My husband and teenage daughter had a great stay. My husband took his boat and went fishing. The property was well equipped to make a fisherman happy. A place to clean the catch, lockable gate for boat storage and a readily accessible hose for cleaning the boat. We enjoyed walking along the beach into town to shop for our meals. The kitchen was well equipped for preparing, cooking and cleaning up. Will definitely keep this listing in my favourites.

Amazing quiet retreat
Could not be a better experience all round. The booking and checkin process was seamless, and the house was even better in the flesh than in the pics…..which were already excellent! The kitchen was very well appointed, the bathroom, toilet and backyard were all very functional and a great size, and the beds were super comfy. Communication with our gracious host Fiona were very courteous and professional, and the location - close to a park and the beach - was just what we needed. The coastal walk to town, in beautiful sunshine, was definitely a highlight of the location as well. Could not recommend this stay more highly - thank you so much!!
