The bach at Iveagh Bay is simply one of the best we've stayed in. Tracey, our host was in touch before during and after our visit - to give us instructions on access, to check everything was OK and to ask for any suggestion about improving the experience (there was nothing by the way!) The home is tastefully decorated and refurbished, the facilities are first class, the beds and linen were super and the views of the lake out front and of the beautiful native garden in the back are gorgeous!
