We had an amazing stay at Triona's cottage, it is such a unique and beautiful space in your own little corner of Connemara. Super peaceful, stocked with everything we needed to cook several meals, and very cozy with the ability to have a peat fire to read by every night. Great place to relax after our excursions to the Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Islands, and plenty of stuff to get into close to the house. There are sheep all over the property and it is truly magical to be able to see the sunrise over the sheep-dotted mountains and lake right outside the bedroom window. Would not hesitate to stay here again, in fact, I'm sad I can't just live there!
As expected, it is a little drive to the nearest towns, but only about 10-15 minutes. Some highlights from our exploration in the area were amazing views from hiking in Connemara national park, getting a delicious pot of mussels at Veldons in Letterfrack, and enjoying pints of Guinness with some great company at Paddy Coynes pub in Tully Cross. The drives in this area are unforgettable, expect to need to slow down for at least one sheep. Thank you Triona for a wonderful vacation!
