We had a lovely time in Portmagee despite mixed weather. The cottage was a great base for our sightseeing adventures. The house is comfortable and extremely cosy in the evenings with a nice turf fire (and a glass of wine or a hot whiskey!) My favourite time in the cottage was morning time. Something special about having your first coffee of the day looking at the beautiful bay and the rolling hills on Valentia Island - interrupted only by our little dog, Millie, having her morning run and swim with her new best friend, Willow, who belonged to a lovely family in one of the other cottages.
This is a great place to stay, but I definitely underestimated how much having no wifi would affect us. Even simple things we now take for granted, like googling new things to do on rainy days, meant a trip to the Bridge Bar to use theirs. Perhaps its an upgrade for Elizabeth to consider in the future. Am sure it would be a plus that most visitors would pay a little extra to have. I certainly would.
