This cabin has everything you need. It’s a cozy getaway nestled in a humble neighbourhood. You can see the sunrise from the bed (which is very comfortable). The cabin has so many homey touches and I loved eating my breakfast on the porch. The free roaming hens would often come to greet me too! The bathroom is just a short walk away and is actually much better than I could have hoped for.
If you’re on foot, getting into town is a bit of a mission. The nearest bus stop is a 25 minute walk and the closest shop is about 30 minutes. The train station is 35 minutes. The sights on the train line are really beautiful! Definitely recommend going up to Bray and surrounding areas. The cabin is also a 20 minute walk to the Avondale forest which has a treetop walk and slide!
Edwin & Fiona are very kind & courteous people. They were welcoming, friendly, and helpful.
The people of Rathdrum on a whole did not seem overly enthralled that we were visiting. So if your accent or dress spells tourist, you may want to avoid the town and take the train or bus to neighbouring cities instead. Definitely more to see in surrounding areas anyways.
Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a getaway!
