We had a fantastic time at Marsh Cottage. It is exactly as described, secluded, quiet, suitable for our dog, homely living area, perfect for 6 guests. The fact there is no WiFi and little phone reception as described was a bonus to enable true escape from everyday life! There is a great sound system you can plug into which really adds atmosphere in the Cottage. The fire was set and ready to go with plenty of turf and we did as recommended and picked up a bag of coal for a little more long- lasting heat during our midwinter stay! All the kitchen utensils are clean and all that is necessary is there including a range of pots and pans, a good cooker and fridge with a small freezer. There were even ice cube trays and bags. The area itself is fab with Grange (about a mile nearby, but be careful walking the main road!) having several pubs, a tea room, garage and SuperValu so you could do your whole shop here! Everyone is friendly and Jimmy the local taxi driver was great, just ask for his number in Lang’s pub. Catherine’s contact was immediate and very clear, directions were precise and Catherine’s friend Christa arrived almost immediately after us and checked that we were fine.
Overall, this Cottage is suitable for 6 people (or less) wanting to get away from it all in a beautiful rural area that still provides basic needs and has FAB beaches nearby (surfing streedagh on New Year’s Eve was ace!). Catherine is an excellent host and her property is basic but well kept, clean, damp free and homely. Beds are comfy too!
