Chris and Orla were ideal hosts. They were helpful, hospitable, interesting to talk with, and respectful. They offered suggestions on what to do in the area and places to eat, and loaned us a map. Breakfast was fabulous! We enjoyed hearing their story of restoring the church. We also loved their two dogs! Their home is clean and we felt very comfortable in it. The location was perfect for our plans, equal distance between the Connemara area and the Cliffs of Moher. Athenry is also a fun little village to explore. All around, it was a positive experience.
