JK The treatments that I offer are Swedish Sports massage, Aromatherapy massage, Lomi Lomi Hawaiian massage, Hot Stone massage, Indian Head massage and Shirodhara from June 2009. For details on each treatment look at the unique benefits under owner profile section on VRBO.

"I spent a charming week at Mount Shannon. The cottage was clean and cosy, nicely decorated and comfortable, with possibility of listening to music and a warned bed. My hosts were welcoming and attentionate. I could feel at home when invited to dinner or to touring. And we did a lot of touring discovering wonderful sceneries and spending a good time; I recommend the location and the hosts for a nice stay with only good surprises."

Top O' the Mornin to Ya !!! I had the pleasure of staying in this lovely little cottage in Apr/May of 2009. Mr. Kinney was so very kind, after our long flight, we arrived to groceries in the fridge as he knew we would be tired. The views were outstanding, hospitalilty neverending, and accomodations very comfortable for me as I used the cottage as my home base for daily travels. Some of the most friendliest people I have ever met in Ireland. Will definately be back to the Emerald Isle!!!
Owner response:Many thanks Sheri.I am glad you and Susanna enjoyed your stay in Ireland.
