We got lucky our first two nights in Ireland

The countryside was amazing, and so different from most of Ireland. The cottage was so well-cared for, and clean, and had everything we needed, including cooking utensils and equipment. It was very quiet there, and close to places we wanted to see. The scenery was amazing. The hostess was wonderful.

Outstanding beauty

Pristine and comfortable cottage in a jaw dropping setting backed by mountains and fronted by Lough Inagh with an excellent restaurant at Inagh Lodge just 15 minutes walking. Lots of hiking and not crowded. Wonderful stay. Well equipped for fixing meals as well.
