Maria’s place is perfect in every way. It’s spacious, clean and in a wonderful location right at the foot of the mountain. It’s a 20 minute walk to one of the best view points in the Gap of Dunloe, next door to the coffee pot, and right across the street from Kate Kearney’s cottage where we enjoyed live traditional Irish music and dancing.
Maria is one of the best hosts I have ever had. She left us fresh milk, bread, cereal, and plenty of other items in the house that were very helpful. Both nights we stayed we came home to a lit fire and plenty of peat to keep it going all night! She was responsive, greeted us on arrival, and then left us alone, but always available for whatever we needed.
I can’t say enough about the Gap of Dunloe, this cottage, and Maria. If you come to Ireland and don’t stay here, you’re missing out. We will definitely be back!
