We were warmly greeted by Grainne on behalf of Victor, who was away at a family function. Polar winds were forecasted to bring a cold front down over Ireland with freezing temperatures predicted. However, the central heating had been boosted to take away the chill. A tastefully-chosen starter pack was also waiting for us, although we had come full prepared and hadn’t need to avail of most of it. I was originally from the area, but I was particularly impressed with a detailed map that had been left for us, as it showed all the local place-names and the locations of inscribed stones, raths and various other local points of interest. The double bed was very comfortable and we slept well, with no traffic noises to disturb us. We ‘walked the land’ but didn’t make it as far as the waterfall due to other pressing time commitments. Victor also diligently called us to ensure that all was well. Sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet him but maybe sometime.
