    “Amazing cottage, everything we needed was provided.”

    Cosy comfortable authentic Irish feel. Ideally situated close to local pub, beaches and a 20 minute drive to town. Hosts are a lovely local couple who were a pleasure to meet, didnt bother us at all yet were on hand to support with tourist information and local amenities. I have stayed in many places across England & Ireland over the last 15 years and this was by far my most relaxing comfortable stay of all. There are not many authentic Irish cottages left and this one is a credit to the ...

    Cosy comfortable authentic Irish feel. Ideally situated close to local pub, beaches and a 20 minute drive to town. Hosts are a lovely local couple who were a pleasure to meet, didnt bother us at all yet were on hand to support with tourist information and local amenities. I have stayed in many places across England & Ireland over the last 15 years and this was by far my most relaxing comfortable stay of all. There are not many authentic Irish cottages left and this one is a credit to the owners, thank you so much for everything our stay here was a little piece of tranquility and heaven for 7 days
