Kathryn was terrific. She made us delicious breakfast and tea every morning, was very kind, and was a wealth of information. We came to Ireland with no plans at all and she helped us develop a day to day itinerary as well as providing us with maps and pamphlets. The walk to Galway is beautiful and her house is only a few feet from the local bus stop if you aren't down with walking. All in all a terrific experience.
