Michelle’s cottage is our favorite place on planet earth. We’ve stayed here 4 times now - and with any luck/as long as it’s available to rent/we haven’t actually moved to Ireland full time yet - we’ll stay here 40 more. From sitting in front of the wood stove, to looking out over the valley through the sun room, to hanging out with the O’Sullivan’s and learning about sheep farming. Come in the spring/summer and you’ll see the Lambs, come in the fall and you’ll dodge the crowds. Cahersiveen is an actual Irish town - no manufactured tourism stuff. Just real Irish people doing their thing.
The cottage is rustic, but it has everything you need (laundry, fire place, heaters, beds, a great shower)
Cahersiveen has surprisingly good food and restaurants.
