Michael met us at the local store and guided us to the most wonderful (spacious) cottage in beautiful Connemara. Maggie was there to greet us, and we admired the views from every window, including the waterfall. It truly is a retreat. Our hosts left us with plenty of yum provisions, and made suggestions on great places to explore. Our first morning was sunny, and Michael guided us to some lovely beaches. He had a lot of local knowledge which he shared willingly. They are an extremely generous couple. We drove to Roundstone and to Clifden, walked a lot and enjoyed picnics on the beach. It was a most wonderful 3 days in Connemara, and we wish we had booked for longer.
