Maureen's cottage provides an opportunity to see a bit of Ireland away from other tourists. The Beara Peninsula has mountains, valleys, lakes, river, harbours, ocean, forest. The mountains are spectacular and Healy Pass is breathtakingly beautiful. Kenmare is a lovely town close to Tuosist with shops and amenities. Great place! The cottage is lovely. There are books about Tuosist in the house that added to my perception of the place and of Ireland and it's history.
