Guestbook for 4*Tom Barry House Penthouse
Sorry for not seeing you before we left. Best ever time. Weather was magic too. The lit roof garden at night made a great backdrop to the Irish music coming up from the nearby bars. I have got to leave England. I hated going home. - Mike & Sam, Newcastle, England
We had an amazing time, thank you! We were able to just park the car & relax, being in the centre of Clifden was fantastic & the roof top garden perfect. Hope to be back again soon. Steve & Leslie, Chicago, USA.
Super place. Loved it. Should have booked for longer in hindsight as everything was right here. Will be back. Joe & Mary - Dublin
Clifden is a charming place, with so much to do & see, our apartment just perfect, thank you so much for everything. We will tell all our friends back home in Scotland. Donna & Rab August 2005.
We are definitely coming back & hopefully soon, we loved your apartment & the welcome we got! Thank you! S & P Duane, England.
