This is perfect country cottage in the most beautiful area. The sea is a few minutes walk away (down the most lovely boreen) and it is perfectly situated to do walks and hikes all around. The nearby bog walk is a must. We swam twice despite the weather.. I can only imagine what it’s like on a sunny day, it was bliss even in the wind & rain! We drove to Máméan to do a walk.. if we came back again, we would drive out to Roundstone as there’s lots to do out there too.
Mary and Alan made us feel so welcome. On arrival there were homemade bread and scones & blackcurrant jam, and Mary pulled some potatoes and picked berries from the garden for us too! Incredible!! We sat in the morning having coffee in the rose garden - stunning. The garden is something else - fruit & veg growing everywhere, trees, flowers.. just beautiful.
The cottage is really well equiped with every kitchen utensil you could need, and the larder cupboard was well stocked with tea, coffee, cooking ingredients, tinfoil, kitchen roll etc. This was a lovely surprise as we didn’t need to buy everything :-)
I can’t recommend the Garden Cottage enough.. we really can’t wait to come back.
