I see now why every review to date is five stars. The cottage is lovely. It is tastefully decorated, and well equipped. John and Martina are generous and welcoming hosts that make you feel more like family members enjoying a long overdue reunion rather than travelers paying to stay in their guest house. Breakfast was so nice, with currents from the garden, homemade jams, and a spread of meats, cheeses, cereal, yogurt, eggs, fruit, etc, all laid out for us, more or less at our leisure. I could go on, but suffice it to say, you can't help but love your stay here. It would be great for a quiet weekend getaway, or as a base of operations for some heavy duty tourist activity. We will definitely be back for a weekend the next time I have business in Dublin.
