Rathosey Cottage is an absolute gem.
We (family of 4) enjoyed a week late October 2019 in the cottage and it was 'home' in no time at all after our arrival.
Throughout the booking process Marilin was very responsive and friendly in answering any of my questions. This high level of communication continued throughout our stay.
Check in was exactly as described.
The cottage is brilliantly secluded, though adjacent to another similar cottage (we had neighbours but never met them as they clearly wanted their solitude too). For a cottage where you feel you're 'getting away from it all', we were still within a 15 minute walk to the local shops and pub.
Our stay had a really authentic feel to it and I cant recommend highly enough that everyone take the opportunity to relax in front of such a cosy open fire in a such a perfect setting.
The TV/SoundBar and WiFi is a great addition for those who might worry about getting bored, though the cottage also boasts a full bookcase, some boardgames and views looking out with the potential to spot some local deer (which we did).

Rathosey Cottage was a great spot - if the prospect of isolation doesn't appeal there is tons to do nearby. We visited the stunning locations of Inniscrone, Strandhill, Rosses Point and ate and enjoyed the views there (all within 30mins drive). We also conquered Knocknarea to visit Queen Maebhs grave, and were mesmerised by the 6,000yr old megalithic Carrowmore cemetery.
I wish anyone planning to stay in Rathosey Cottage as wonderful a time as we had.
