Perfect stay!

My weekend away staying at Killy Dora was absolutely perfect and I highly recommend staying here! The home was relaxing, had all the comforts of home, so clean, bed was comfortable, secure yard for my dog, great location to the beach, cafes and pub. Great if you enjoy walks and hikes with the George Bass track. I stayed by myself with my dog.. felt safe, this is a great stay/ location for families also. Vicky was so lovely to deal with. I will be booking another stay at Killy Dora.!
