We were warmly welcomed by Mick as Róísín was away when we arrived. The Writers Cabin was exactly what we had hoped, comfortable, will all the amenities we required. A lovely little extra touch included the bread, eggs, milk, coffee and much more to get us started when we arrived. The kitchen was well stocked and made it easy for us to cook. Everything worked well and easy to follow instructions were provided for using the oven etc.
It is a beautiful peaceful spot, you wake up to the sounds of sheep and birds. Westport is just a 5 min drive away, but you do feel you're in the countryside.
A bonus for animal lovers: We also loved the occasional company of Nellie the Border Collie and Rufus the black cat (who hopefully had sent a lot of luck our way!)
The location was ideal for cycling, running and hiking which we spent our eight days there doing.
Róísín is a wonderful host, very warm and friendly and approachable. We couldn't recommend the Writer's Cabin more highly if you want a simple, comfortable getaway in the beautiful Irish countryside.
