We spent two days at Sabine's place as we wanted to get off the grid. The cottage is in a tiny little town called Killala. There's two stunning beaches about 2km from the house (one of which you will always have to youself). The local pub, The Village Inn, is about 20 minutes walk. It serves a fantastic pint of Guinness and great food.
The cottage had everything we needed. There's no oven (which is fine - just to flag in case you are shopping on the way there). Plenty of towels and a hairdryer. Tea, seasoning and oils all provided in the kitchen.
I enjoyed my stay in the area. Very cute little place.
