Mary couldn't have made us feel more welcome. From demented 5 year olds, to a teenager through to exhausted parents thoroughly enjoyed and were very comfortable in this gorgeous cosy cottage. Not to mention the canines in our family loving it just as much as us. Mary's trip recommendations were perfect we were staying during the very hot weather so swimming in Lough Graney; flagmount and Lough Derg at Mountshannon as well as Bishop's quarter beach were heavenly pools of coolness. Along with trying to bring the temperature down in the Ailwee caves. Bunratty is amazing but deserves a whole day we only booked in for after 1pm. Kayaking on Lough Derg was stunning a lovely way to see the lake. It was a wonderful family holiday made special by the location and Marys warmth.
