If you want to experience Ireland proper this is the place for it! Unbelievably clean, comfortable space and beds, more than enough hot water, plenty of snacks, and tons of literature on things to do during your stay on the Emerald Isle! Mary is a phenomenal host, she met us at the driveway with a wonderful tour and explanation of the house and surrounding areas. The Swallow's Nest is peaceful, serene, and just as green as you would hope from an Irish cottage! I'll most certainly be staying here during my next holiday to Ireland!
