My family spent time in this house and we were up the street in another BNB. However, my dad said, "this cottage was huge and beautiful." Some other family members were not excited that it was a little farther away from other things. Yet, this was understood when I purchased the BNB and is very accurate. The small but mighty fun town of Miltown Malbay is less than 15 minutes away with all the necessary Irish pubs, stores, beach, and fun. This cottage was a great purchase!
