My husband and I debated for a long time about staying on a farm a ways outside of Dublin. We only had two days at the end of our Europe trip, and it would have been so easy to just hang out in Pubs in Dublin and call it a day. But we wanted to do something different... We wanted an adventure. I saw Brian's listing on the site, and I couldn't get it out of my head. So we decided to rent a car and give it a chance. And I am so, so grateful we did.
Staying with Brian was truly a highlight in our travels. We had such an amazing stay with him, and are unbelievable grateful for his kindness and excellent company. We loved learning about the history of his land, and hearing stories of Brian's own experiences on the farm. We rode horses, hung out with his amazing dogs, took walks around the huge and gorgeous property, saw two newborn 2-day-old lambs (!!), and sat around a beautiful fire chatting the night away with Brian. Brian also gave us great recommendations, including a nearby local bar that we LOVED, because they played authentic Irish folk music in the round. This farm is truly magical, and we are so genuinely glad we got to stay here. We so hope to get the chance to come back some day! Thank you for the beautiful memories, Brian!
