Thanks a mil Ritchie for affording us the opportunity of staying in your idilic cottage & especially the fact that our 2 dogs were made welcome as well,you have a beautiful gem of a modernised typical Irish cottage at the foot of a towering mountain looking across the plains to the seashore in the distance,Darby O’Gils wouldn’t be a patch on yours😀.We really had a great time there ,it’s so peaceful & the dogs had a great time on white strand beach twice a day which was only 5 or 6 minutes drive.We then frequented the Espresso coffee shop everyday for the fresh fruit scones & lattes in Caherciveen,then onto the moorings seafood restaurant in Portmagee for fresh fish & chip,further on the coast then we found a beautiful restaurant & coffee dock pitched high up overlooking a lovely small bay called St Finian’s Bay with spectacular views of the sea & cliffs called ‘Driftwood surf cafe’ which I personally think the name doesn’t do the place justice as it’s a beautiful restaurant with towering glass windows,modern plush interior taking full advantage of the magnificent views to be had from your table.We also visited the fabulous Oratory pizza & wine bar in Caherciveen which was a former church.We sampled Quinlan & Cooke restaurant’s steaks & John Dory fish which were cooked to our liking,we could go on & on but wouldn’t have enough space here to cover all the gems to be seen & enjoyed all within a half hrs drive of the cottage.We would dearly love to come back again next year.
