John's cottage was a home away from home during the Christmas break. It meant so much to us and for my teenage son in particular who was visiting me for the first time in Ireland. He got to experience rural (although not-so-rural) Ireland too.
Everything was perfect and we had a great stay. Important to know that the cottage is about 5km away from the main road, nearest public transport and convenience shops. We had bikes so it was easy if we ran out of milk or bread. If you have a car not to worry.
I also like walking so a few times we walked the 5km, enjoying the landscape and ticked it off as our work out for the day.
There are local taxis if booked in advance and make sure to agree on the fare.
Overall the cottage is lovely and peaceful. The lake and hill views were my most favourite in the morning. There's no WiFi but we bought a 3 sim card with unlimited data and it worked perfectly even when we wanted to watch Netflix.
I'd def stay again and recommend to friends or family looking for a peaceful gateaway.
A huge thanks to John and Rita who welcomed us on arrival as they opened their home to us.
