It's hard to fully describe how wonderful the experience at Rathgillen was. Peter and Mairead were truly wonderful hosts and treated us as though we were their family. We were greeted at a nearby train station when it became clear we were poor college students without much of a clue how to get to Nobber. Peter then welcomed us with tea and handmade (delicious) scones. Peter's son gave us a tour of the countryside, and introduced us to the surrounding areas. Peter, too, gave us a historic tour of the property once we expressed interest. We appreciated not only their hospitality, but also their dedication in maintaining their property. The cottage is absolutely lovely. Who can beat a wood burning stove every night? It has everything that you need to be comfortable in this countryside retreat, including a very well prepared kitchen area. The home has a very cozy feeling and feels immediately comfortable. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous--think rolling, green hillls filled with sheep and cows. We simply cannot recommend staying here enough and we hope to be back someday soon.
