Spectacular!! The Blacksmiths Cottage is everything you could imagine a historical Irish cottage to be and more. John and Emily have created a magical place filled with love and care for their guests. The kitchen (with a dreamy old fashioned AGA cooker) was stocked with specialty jams, butter, juices and farm-fresh eggs for a real breakfast. The living room parlour had a piano in the corner, a fireplace and board games for a great night relaxing after dinner. The beds were super comfy and bathrooms spotless with everything you could need and the garden was perfect. Fermoy was absolutely adorable and we had a great dinner in the bar/pub at the Grand Hotel with a beautiful view of the river as Emily suggested. Fermoy is off the tourist track and we loved it and would definitely go back and maybe even take some fishing lessons while staying at the Blacksmiths cottage. A big thanks to Emily and John for making our last night in Ireland memorable (and helping me find rhubard to take back to Italy with me).
