Staying at Ruth's house was the best choice I could possibly have made. I felt immediately at home because she is personable, pleasant and knowledgeable. I found our conversations enjoyable as we seem to have a lot in common (despite the age difference).
The room was comfortable and spacious, with an ensuite and amazing shower! The bed itself felt like I was slipping into a cloud!
I also happened to arrive at a time when there was a significant horse event in town that I would never, ever have had the opportunity to witness. I would not have known about this except for Ruth's inclusiveness and helping me to learn and enjoy the Irish culture, my whole reason for the journey here.
If I am ever to return, Ruth's comfortable, welcoming home would be my first stop!
