12/10 We arrived later than expected only to be welcomed personally by our host. The cottage is adorable and perfectly laid out for comfort and utility alike. We were provided a few lagniappes for breakfast and given plenty of space to explore to gorgeous countryside and renew ourselves in an amazing Irish countryside. The small town of Athlone was only a 10 minute drive as well. Best of both worlds for the perfect stop in any one's Irish travels. Would recommend to any one.
