After several days in Dublin and Cork we were looking forward to a night in the country, Caroline's thatched cottage was the perfect stop. We were welcomed into the original thatched cottage (with THICK stone walls) and ushered through the airy a bright kitchen to our upstairs room. Three skylights lit our comfortable room and the light in the morning was most welcome. One of our most hearty Irish breakfasts was provided by Caroline's mum in morning and we were set for another day of travel. Thanks to Caroline and her mother!
