From the moment we stepped out of the car we received famed Irish hospitality. Eleanor's made us feel at home for the several days we stayed with her. She prepared breakfast for us each day (if we desired) and learned our preferences so that it was always special for us. The home is a short drive south of Limerick city, but in our opinion, the perfect location to explore the countryside around counties Limerick, Kerry, and Clare. Eleanor took us to the farmers market in Limerick (which is not to be missed) and has an abundant selection of locally sourced produce, sausage, cured meat, fish, and crafts. She also provided us with valuable tips on where to go and what to see to make our trip unique and avoid many of the tourist traps. I won't tell you them here - because they should stay her secrets! Our two girls loved her dogs and chickens. Accommodations were comfortable and we always felt welcome and at home. We especially enjoyed sharing a drink and conversation in the evenings.
