Idyllic retreat

Ranny Roe is a perfect get away property situated in the most beautiful location with stunning views. The property is spotlessly clean and very well equipped with everything you might need for a relaxing break. The hosts were very helpful and responsive with tips on local area. The location is perfect too, being close to Carraigart, Downings and Portsalon. There is a beautiful beach only five minutes drive away at Ballyhiernan Bay - perfect for walks. I would highly recommend this property and look forward to returning.
