I’ve been a bit slow to post Mary’s review because I simply couldn’t find the words. As Anthony Bourdain said “it’s an irritating reality that certain places defy description....they seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about. For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there”. While I’ve taken a few editorial liberties with AB’s original, that’s really it in a nutshell. This residence is special, rare. It’s no surprise that they have repeat guests. We plan to join that list.
For the practical thinkers out there - know that the property is nicely situated for good access to Donegal and the northwest. It offers every amenity, generous and available hosts, a magazine worthy environment, and an ancient stone circle 5 minutes walk from the back gate . There are two sweet doggos, a suitably sassy cat, horses walking past from time to time, and Mary’s homemade bread. Go. You’ll never regret it.
