Our stay was absolutely stunning. This precious cottage is remotely situated (but only a short drive to shops for essentials) so it is silent all day and night except for the sound of the wind, birdsong, and the occasional cow moo! As a city dweller, it doesn’t get much better than that. We were on our honeymoon and found that Aiden and Clíona had left us lovely treats and a sweet card when we got in!
The bed in the master bath was heaven to sleep in. Lovely hot shower and sparkling bathroom. The kitchen is a pleasure to cook in (I roasted a whole chicken!) and there are laundry amenities which are easy to use. Upstairs, a lovely sloped-ceiling nook for snuggling up and reading or watching a film. Aiden and Clíona have left detailed info on anything you need to know about keeping the house in order (such as using the wood fire stove or the oil heating) as well as things to do in the area. (Carrowkeel Tombs and the Caves of Keash were two personal faves of ours!)
Walking around the grounds you can see pastures and hills all around and a valley in the distance. An old stone barn sits just above the property. You can sense the history of the place. It is truly magical. I can’t recommend their lovely cottage enough. Thank you both for having us— I cannot wait to come back!
