I stayed at Brennan's in May 2017 for 8 nights with my daughter. I loved it so much that I returned for 3 nights with my son. It is incredibly hard for me to describe Brennan's. The outside is very traditional and then when you walk in, you're "blown away"! The pictures don't do it justice. The character and attention to detail is amazing.
Aoife kept in close contact with me as Hurricane Ophelia headed towards Ireland. We arrived the morning of the hurricane, grabbed a few supplies and made our way to Brennan's. We made a roaring fire and settled in. Ironically, it was kind of fun riding out the storm here!
Brennan's is a gem in middle of the gorgeous Loop Head peninsula. Loop Head does not get the recognition of other peninsulas in Ireland (Dingle, Ring of Kerry, Beara, etc.). In my opinion, Loop Head is one of the most picturesque spots in all of Ireland. The pace is relaxed and the people are so warm and welcoming.
We were met by Mary who looks after the cottage. She is lovely and gave us another warm greeting.
I will return here year after year. If you want to stay in a perfect cottage in a perfect location, book a stay at Brennan's. You will not be disappointed.
Thanks Aoife!
