The Blasket Island view cottage was superb, spacious (1400 square feet) and has a stunning view of the coastline and the islands, and is across the road from the very informative Blasket Island Center. There is so much to do and see here that we truly regret having stayed here only two days. Our hosts were very knowledgeable about the area and had some excellent suggestions. In our short stay we managed to visit Gallarus, Kilmalkedar, Riaisc, and the Beehive archaeologic sites; go on several nature hikes surrounded by some of the most stunning landscapes you could imagine; and visit several sites where the film Ryan's Daughter was made. We also dropped in to the lovely town of Dingle, which has great restaurants, grocery stores, and wool, pottery and crystal shops. We could easily have spent a week here, or even longer.
