We were looking for a change of scenery while also being able to avoid too many other people during COVID and William's Top House fit the bill perfectly. We loved being able to hike directly out the back of the cottage and William gives some excellent recommendations for local hikes and nature trails of varying time and strenuous levels. We ventured out to the Connemara National Park and the Sky Road one day and would have liked to spend more time in the shops of Westport in different times. The village of Cong is lovely and Americans should plan to watch "The Quiet Man" before visiting. With a grocery store in Clonbur, it was easy enough for us to cook meals for most of our trip as well. The countryside is wonderfully hilly, sheep-filled, and picturesque. Absolutely the trip that we were looking for!
