Mary's place was a true friendly and relaxing experience. She went out of her way ,meeting us in town after a long day of flying and severe jet lag and showed us how to get to her place. She welcomed us with a nice roaring fire and such a lovely welcome basket filled with yummy Irish baked goods and bread. She was a great host and showed us through the house which is wonderful and cozy. She showed us how everything worked and the best hiking trails in the area and answered all our questions. She was easy to get in touch with and responded right away. We loved the ferry to Aran Island and spent the day on the big Island. We highly recommend a guided tour of the Island. There was a great restaurant that cooked authentic Irish food really,really good. It was near the Fort museum at the craft stores. There are lots of hiking trails nearby the house and down by the ocean . It was a nice relaxing and very enjoyable stay at Mary's. We loved it and hope to come to area someday. We highly recommend it you would be disappointed.
