We are country/woods folks from Massachusetts, so we absolutely loved this place, about a 1/2 mile driveway through cow pasture leads you to the house, it sits quite high, right next to the river and the old bridge, absolutely beautiful surroundings, the cottage is basic, but it gives you an authentic Irish countryside stay, there was delicious bread, eggs, cheese, apples etc left for us by Fredrick who had already started the fire in the wood stove for us. If you want piece and quit come stay here, a short drive in either direction and your in a small town, we went to the forge pub right in town, definitely a townie bar, not a woman to be seen besides the bartender, we got asked how in the f we walked into that bar and explained what we were doing there and where we were staying, and met a few new friends, one from NY who has lived in town for 13 years now.. all in all a great place and a great town.. praying we get to return someday...
