Anne’s house in Corofin is a real treat, as we chose to stay in the village as my Grandfather had grown up in the area and were not disappointed. It’s situated in the heart of the village, a 20 second walk from Main Street with shops and pubs a-plenty as well as the Catholic Church for Sunday mass, complete with a large off-road parking space which will comfortably fit an SUV.
As you walk through the area, you can’t miss the nostalgic aroma of peat fuelled fire chimney smoke. The house is huge with large comfortable en suite rooms, kitchen, and 2 reception rooms, plenty big enough for our group of 4. Anne and her family are well known in the village, and highly regarded when we mentioned where we were staying.
Anne was the perfect remote host, staying in contact with me by instant message (IM), from booking through to arrival. On arrival the housekeeper had stocked the house with butter, milk, tea and coffee, as well as freshly baked scones. Anne was available throughout the visit by IM, responding quickly to messages and proactively checking that we were enjoying the trip throughout. I’d love to return to the house next year and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it and Anne’s hospitality.
