What a weekend!
Honestly, I couldn’t fault The Wild Atlantic Bus.
From the moment we arrived, we all felt so welcome because our host, Richard, was delighted to see us.
Richard gave us all the info we needed to make sure we got the most out of our stay and he was also happy to stay and chat, which we loved. I’d say it was more us keeping him, whichever it was, it kicked off our stay in the best way.
If you are looking for a getaway where you can fully immerse yourself in silence, well, apart from the crackling of the stove or the odd bleat of a goat, then this is the place for you.
The outdoor shower hut is heavenly. While you are lathering up you are basking in views of Connemara fields, and in the distance is the gorgeous Lough Corrib which is studded with tiny islands. Amazing!
Then there’s all the little details; Like curled butter, housed in the tiniest butter dome I have ever seen. The homemade brown bread and jam. Richard had the stove lit for us when we got there and he even had welcome sweets! Too good!
It was such a gorgeous experience for our 4 yr old daughter, from playing hide and seek on and off the bus, to pretending to be the bus driver, cap an all!
Another huge benefit to a stay like this, especially in the damper climes of the west of Ireland, is that this was even more craic in the rain!
We were more than happy, if not happier, to stay on the bus and soak up the loveliness of it. We played, read books, and warmed our toes by the fire.
Highly recommend The Wild Atlantic Bus. All of it was super! Can’t wait to go back.
