Staying in Nan’s Cottage is like stepping back in time. The turf fire, stone walls and decor are just as they would have been in years gone by. Except you also have the luxury of hot water, central heating and electricity. It is so peaceful and secluded. The location is beautiful. I could hear birds singing and not much else! Sheila was a great host and took time to talk to me about the restoration process, which I found very interesting. She also put out milk, tea, coffee, fresh eggs and fruit scones for me. If you want to experience proper rural Ireland, I’d highly recommend a stay here!
