Our stay at Four Directions Cottage was truly sublime - but only too short! The whole experience was positively enchanting. The restoration/creation of this cottage is a masterpiece of work with so many charming details. The natural light in and views from the cottage are amazing. We felt restored and rejuvenated after a weekend stay even with our small children underfoot and up early - simply from the coziness of cottage surrounded in a spectacular setting. Mick and Laraine could not have offered a warmer welcome and they have thought of every detail to enrich one's stay from the fabulous bread and eggs on hand, to ample local guide material, to the freshly cut flowers and lovely fuchsia from the garden. They have also perfected the balance around their availability and guest privacy as it was lovely to know they were not far if we had any questions or needs but the cottage is situated so it feels like you are only sharing Hungry Hill with the sheep across the fields - creating a rather magical effect. I am already scheming future plans to return to the cottage and explore the Beara peninsula more in depth.
