Reviews

We stayed at the Skillen as a party of 13 and the accomodation was Great. The 5 bedrooms, large dining areas and lounge provided ample space for everyone. Also parking was good for 4 cars and garden was also great with the hot tub. We had a lovely long weekend and will definitely return in the future.
