Guestbook
We have just returned to a grey Northern Ireland! This is just a very quick note to say thank-you once again for making us feel so at home during our very short stay this week. La Rivolte is a truly amazing place, but only becomes really special when combined with your own kindness and genuine hospitality. Hopefully we will return soon, with a few friends next time. Gary & Anne McGaffin (B&B guests) We discovered La Rivolte in cyberspace and experienced it as heaven on earth! We hope that many guests will find their way to you and have the same marvellous time as we had. You were great hosts! Fred & Els Hulsing, Amstelveen, Holland Lived up to and exceeded our expectations. Wonderfully relaxing and convivial. Rod & Helen Cahill, London, UK
