Anne and Paudie’s place was my favourite place I’ve ever stayed- I came for one night and ended up staying 3. The house is a quaint and cute farmhouse and has the most beautiful scenery outside every window. Everything is impeccably clean and yet remains homey at the same time. My room was *huge* and my bed and pillows were super comfortable. The bathroom was also really nice with super hot water and their towels were so soft- which if you stay a lot of places as I do is quite an appreciated change from the usual! Right outside my window was a view of their farm, sheep, neon green grass, and a massive mountain topped with snow. It was so peaceful. Breakfast was delicious as well and had cereal, granola, yogurt, eggs, porridge/oatmeal, soda bread (THEY HAND MAKE IT AND IT’S *dangerously* DELICIOUS), and tea or coffee.
The home was nice but this family is even more so. They went above and beyond. They picked me up from the bus station, gave great recommendations, gave warm water bottles to tuck into my bed at night to keep me extra snuggley, and even helped me plan the rest of my trip. Their son Michael even played some Irish tunes I knew on accordion and flute one night during dinner! They gave me food and leftovers! When I got sick they cared for me and made me tea and gave me medicine!! I honestly wish I was staying longer because I love this family. Wow. Amazing experience. I can’t recommend staying here enough.
