The Thatched Cottage was the perfect place to begin our three-week adventure on the West Coast of Ireland. First, the house is absolutely charming – – historic and beautifully preserved but also with all the modern conveniences that one would need. It’s close enough to all of the action in Dingletown but far enough away to be quiet and be in rural surrounds. There is a beautiful three hour or so walk right out the door from the cottage that takes you through coastal and Woodland and up into the hills. It was stunning. While we never got to meet Cecelia and Pat, they were super responsive and their instructions were very helpful and we felt very welcome and taken care of. We will be back!
