Rachel was absolutely charming, as was her cottage with bnb expansion. We arrived rather late due to a delayed flight into Shannon, and she could not have been more accommodating, even though we kept her little daughter Caitlin from bedtime due to her eagerness to greet the visitors. Caitlin is a sweetheart of a little tyke- all freckles and smiles. Rachel's Mon Laur is the perfect respite on your tour of the Dingle Peninsula. We stayed in the room upstairs and were pleasantly surprised at the size of the room ( room to walk around for 4 adults with suitcases!), the view (mountains! sheep! ponies!), and the lovely decor. Rachel provided ample healthy breakfasts in her cosy dining room in the original section of the 100 year old cottage in front of the large fireplace and spiral staircase. We loved hearing her story of how she left life in the big city in Britain to become a bnb host in the Dingle countryside and how the old cottage was renovated into the lovely little bnb that it is today. Just a word of caution getting to her place- the sign on the road is quite small and the drivers go quite fast on the road leading to Mon Laur, so be watching carefully for her little stone wall and little white sign. We missed it the first time and turning around can be a bit tricky on that stretch of road with all its curves. I would definitely stay with Rachel again. She was a pleasure to meet and good resource for advice on the Dingle area. She even loaned us a tour book, which we accidentally dragged with us to Dublin, and she was ever so kind to not be upset about our mistake and patient enough to wait for us to post it back to her.
