First time in Ireland

It was a quaint and perfect little cabin for our needs, the two of us. Just on the edge of town, quiet, and suited us well.

Beautiful accommodation & lovely host!

Staying in this space was glorious! The house is designed to be comfortable, restful and it welcoming and it was. The host was very, very nice and she went out of her way to meet our travel needs. This little house is one of the best places we've stayed. After 12 days of travel it was a delightful respite!

Ariana is enthusiastic and welcoming. Her advice led me to Murrooghtoohy for a beautiful view in the Barren. She provided detailed information ahead of time. One suggestion. Her directions indicated that her house was the second one past the church; the distance past the first house is hundreds of yards, so keep going even though it looks like you might have missed it. I recommend staying here.
