We had a wonderful stay at Helen's cottage. Excellent communication and the house is even more cosy and spacious in person than the pictures show. The weather wasn't great during our stay so we spent a good deal of time at the cottage and the turf and fuel left for the fire was very appreciated and a lovely touch. The central heating also warmed the house up very quickly. The house was directly opposite a beautiful rocky beach or a short drive to the sandy beach and a 5 minute drive to the local shop/pub/takeaway etc. We enjoyed our time in Tullycross at Paddy Coyne's pub and visiting other nearby attractions such as Glasilaun beach, Kylemore Abbey, Connemara National Park and driving the Sky Road Loop to Clifden. Helen has thought of everything and ha left a selection of toiletries, washing detergent, tea, coffee and cereals and these were very appreciated. It was a home from home and had everything you would need to make a good meal in the kitchen. As the weather was bad, we did use the kitchen quite a bit. The house doesn't have Internet but we brought our own modem with us which worked perfectly. Helen left a green folder out with very helpful information on everything you would need to know about the house, area etc. I found this great as it was our first time in the area. Overall we loved our stay and hope to stay there again in the future. We wanted some peace and quiet and downtime for a few days and Helen's place was the perfect place to do this. Thank you Helen.
