To be honest, we chose Anne's place because it looked very nice and we thought we'd make a series of day trips to Galway and the surrounding countryside. While we did slip away to Galway... my family fell in LOVE with Anne and Hugh's place and the village of Cong. It was so interesting to visit the Abby, explore the castle, and we had a blast drinking in the pub with the locals.
Anne and Hugh were great hosts and made us feel right at home. None of us thought that Cong would be our favorite place in Ireland... but it was!i
