Fred and his family were very gracious hosts. The Converted Barn is beautiful and quite comfortable. The location is ideal for experiencing the quaint Irish countryside, but also conveniently located for day trips. We took day trips to the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, Galway, Rock of Cashel and Wicklow mountains. There are also a number of castles, and monolithic sites close by. The best Irish brown bread we had in Ireland was Fred's!
