A beautiful, newly renovated cottage located in the quiet countryside in County Mayo. This was a nice change of pace from the bustling activity of Dublin, which is about a 3 hour drive away. The cottage is a spacious 2 story with an incredible view of the surrounding countryside, and all the amenities you could ask for. Bobby and his wife could not have been more helpful and accommodating, and made me feel welcome and safe as a solo traveler. Even their pup Sam was happy to see me! Located near the adorable town of Cong, it also was a short walk to Ashford Castle, which was very convenient for me to meet up with friends who were staying there. Also a close walk to Cullen's at the Cottage, a must try restaurant serving fresh seafood and specialty cocktails. I had the most wonderful time at Chestnut Cottage, and I would definitely plan another trip there in the future!
