The Four Directions Cottage is absolutely amazing! My wife and I had a wonderful time here. Mick and Laraine have really put a lot of effort and care into making the experience here top notch. The space itself is immaculate, with all of the amenities you could want. Laraine provides a welcome packet with relevant information and gives a great tour of the cottage. Her and Mick live right up the hill and were always around and happy to help if we needed anything. The location is fantastic. A 7 or 8 minute drive gets you to Castletownbere, which is a little town with great pubs and restaurants that's not full of tourists. It's also at the base of Hungry Hill, which is a rewarding two hour hike offering amazing views, and around the back are a couple of lakes with the highest waterfall in Ireland, although we didn't make it there. It's also a great jumping off point for exploring the southwest of Ireland. All in all out stay here could not have been more enjoyable, and we'd stay here again in a heartbeat.
