Simply gorgeous location and home inside and out! I was so impressed with the detail of this cottage, the front door, the windows, the flooring, the kitchen, the bookshelf items, the DVD's to watch, the fireplace, the cozy furniture, it is simply beautiful and feels great to be in. I could live here forever. I loved the quietness and the pastoral views, being able to walk to the castle or the village. Arriving through the front gate of Ashford Castle felt amazing. Meeting the Connemara horses, sitting at the table just outside the front door, I could go on and on about how good this place is! The Hosts are very attentive and also give you total privacy and space. It was perfect!
