I am a retired human & animal health consultant. Over the years I have travelled widely and I have visited each and every continent. I have stayed in accommodations ranging from sleeping on a bunker in a ship at sea and on a hard bench in a railway station waiting room, to sharing a double decker bed in a youth hostel and staying in a 5 star hotel suite. I have enjoyed the thrills and endured the frustrations of travelling. I therefore do empathize with my fellow travellers’ experiences. I will do my very best to make your stay at Kiloranhouse, a wonderfully memorable experience.
