Our stay at Nanny Murphy's Cottage was just phenomenal. I have family less than 15 minutes away in Ballinamuck and so this was the perfect spot. It might be a little tougher to navigate without a car, but with a car, this is the perfect location. It's about 15 minutes from Drumlish where you can get just about anything you need, and 30 minutes from Longford Town, which has a bit more variety. Don't forget to check out Arva though -- it's only 6 minutes from the cottage and it is such a charming town with everything in it. Michael was a wonderful host, and this was such a unique place to stay. We are avid TV watchers but the lack of TV forced us to return to simpler times and enjoy a chat by the fire and plenty of cups of tea. (There was WiFi however for our daughter's Cocomelon on the tablet!) This is a charming piece of living Irish history equipped with all the modern conveniences. You can't beat the value for an experience like this.
