We stayed the Beautiful Coach House from the 7 to 13 May and really loved the experience. The cottage certainly lives up to its name: it’s secure, private, cozy, quiet, well equipped, set in the midst of glorious countryside but near to local amenities and an ideal base for exploring the locality and beyond. Gilly and Richard are fabulous hosts (very friendly and helpful but not ‘pushy’) who have lived in their nearby ‘grand’ house for 17 years and have a vast knowledge of Ireland and its people. They also run a smallholding rearing chickens and growing vegetables and fruit. They produced our most memorable meal of the holiday on the first night of our stay – roast (local) lamb with all the trimmings (including candle light) – served in the cottage.
