I only got to meet Dave briefly on my way back in from the pub, but he was very welcoming and nice. The bed was cozy and I slept like a rock. The room was spacious and had a good view of the sea from the window. Everything was neat and clean. I loved the town of Ballycotton. Definitely take a walk along the cliff by the ocean... it's beautiful and very peaceful. The Blackbird pub, just a short walk up the street, was really fun. I would come back here anytime. I recommend this area to anyone who is looking to avoid the more touristy towns.
