This is truly a special place. You get a true feel for the countryside of Ireland and are in driving distance 15 min or so of the charm of Ballyvaughun.
A few points worth mentioning: you are truly away from it all. If you are envisioning easy walks to pubs and shopping this is not the case. That is part of the charm for us. There is an amazing seafood resturant - Linella's - was less than a 10 min drive. We are there each night we stayed it was so amazing! There also is an art gallery - easily drivable - with tea, coffee, wine and light snacks.
The stairs that Brid shows in pics accurately reflects the windy route to get upstairs. Tough on those with mobility challenges. But we navigated with no problem.
For us - this was a perfect getaway - if getting away from it all is your objective this is truly a special place.
