Cathriona's place was easily the most well appointed that we stayed at during our two week trip through Ireland. It makes for a great base camp being an easy drive to Galway, Ashford Castle, and Kylemore Abbey. Her two dogs were a joy to play fetch with and are very gentle and well mannered. Her Connemara ponies were just beautiful, we will have to spend more time with them on our next trip to Ireland. Cathriona is a wealth of information on local places to see and eat. We had a great time during our short stay.
