“It feels like home,” said the couple who booked after me. They nailed it! So many places these days are staged, showroom ready, that the original draw to stay at an airbnb seems to have been forgotten. It is refreshing to stay somewhere again that is absolutely fabulous AND has an organic, cozy feel too it that makes it feel like home. As a solo traveler, I cherish that.
Sadie is also an amazing host - there when you want to learn about the area or need something and respectful of your privacy if you want to keep to yourself.
I was here without a car and happily walked or biked 10-20 km per day, but for the average holiday traveler, I would not recommend visiting this area without a car. For cyclists, keep in mind that roads are narrow with no shoulder, frequent blind curves, and no street lights.
If you are visiting the Mountshannon, Whitegate area, stay here! That’s all I really need to say.
