The Claddagh Cottage as it is named was really nice. It is located right in the middle of rural southeast Ireland, just between Clashmore and Dungarvan. It sits on top of a hill, next to two other homes and a farm, and on a clear day you can see the sea from the large windows which surround the family room. Leather recliners and sofas in the family room which adjoin the kitchen and dining room. The bathroom is large and is well-appointed. The shower set up is a little unique so be sure to ask Siobhan ("Shovan") when you talk to her or see her. We forgot but my husband figured it out. There is a switch in the kitchen that needs to be turned on before the rest of it works.

The location is spectacular. There is a cow parade right past the house morning and night that is a hoot to watch! Nights are very quiet. The TV has lots of channels and DVD player work fine, there is also lots of games in case you have the energy. There is a play-set outside for little kids as well.

Our Google Maps on our phone worked just great to get us to and from all the various locations including this cottage. We had physical maps, but it is really easy to get turned around! It is not difficult getting from one place to the next but there are no road markings outside the main thoroughfares, and the official Irish Survey Map doesn't list the road numbers for anything less than the very largest roads!

Siobhan provides you with a large binder of information including sights and local restaurants in case you haven't picked up a bunch yourself. She was very available whenever we needed her! We had a great time while we were here.

The only thing lacking was a measuring cup when we made some packaged macaroni and cheese; something we ran into at another Airbnb. Ironic, having a whole kitchen but no measuring tools to cook with! We managed!
