Dermot and his wife certainly qualify as super hosts. You couldn’t ask for anything more from them. They were even willing to hang our clothes on the line if there was a big enough break in the rain.
The cottage was spectacularly clean, and I am very picky about cleanliness! I loved Jessie, the little Jack Russel, and she was well behaved enough to keep her distance from my husband who is not a fan of pets.
It’s a bit of a drive, but worth the peace after a day of sightseeing.
