"The drive to and from the cottage is absolutely gorgeous. Driving through narrow country roads with miles of stone walls covered in wild flowers, grass, and moss is an experience all in itself. The cottage was immaculately maintained, spacious, and stocked with activities for the whole family, teens included. Picturesque views from every window and walls decorated by art from local artists and the collection of books by Irish authors to enjoy during our stay added to the experience. Reading Claire Keegan while overlooking the pastures and coast line was bliss, especially when accompanied by the homemade shortbread cookies complements of our hosts, Deidre and John. Did we mention the complementary fresh soda bread, milk, and sample of the local Five Farms Irish Cream Liqueur? Delicious. We were even able to pick up a bottle at the airport on our way home. Another highlight of our stay at the cottage and in Ireland were the cows feeding in the pastures just outside the cottage. Loved the cows. Our walk to the cliffs with John and Deidreʻs dogs added to the experience. The surrounding communities were friendly and generous with their patience as we navigated the roads, numerous grocery stores, and local attractions. There are a lot of local shopping and activities within short driving distance of the cottage. Our only regret is not staying longer. Thank you for the amazing experience!"

"The cottage is lovely and very much as described, it it is actually bigger inside than it looks on the photos mainly I think due to the double height of the lounge but whatever it is a roomy enough place for a family. It was very clean. The main bed and sofas could be more comfortable and maybe those and linens are getting a little tired and yes it would be nice if there was a dishwasher and washer/dryer but the vibe here is rustic, relaxed, back in time and for that it is very well placed as is the location which is just outstanding. You are literally next to a very welcoming family friendly pub, and a three minute walk from a swimming beach with lifeguards etc. The host is excellent as is the house keeper who keeps the cottage in excellent order.
