Pat and Gertie are wonderful hosts, welcoming you to the beautiful contryside with warm hospitality and baked goods! We arrived to Gertie’s rubharb pie fresh out of the oven and a tour of the cottage. It was equipped with lots of cooking supplies if you decide to make your own meals, but we highly recommend breakfasts and dinners made by Gertie, who is a fabulous cook and baker. In the evenings, Pat prepared a cozy fire for us in the wood stove of the cottage keeping the space at a comfortable temperature for the rest of the night. We actually adapted our traveling plans to incorporate visits to some nearby towns rather than go all the way to Cork and Blarney, at Pat and Gertie’s recommendation, and we were glad we did! We look forward to another, longer visit soon!
