Of all the times that we have rented a VRBO dwelling, this was the first time that the host, hospitality, care and willingness to make absolutely everything around our vacation a success was so deeply felt! Upon our arrival our dear host (and new lifelong friend) had a delicious hot dinner prepared and welcomed us to our house with a wonderful fire burning in the living room, candles lit and the warm ambience of a delightfully decorated house. We were in awe by her delightful conversation, her willingness to assist us with any of our touring plans (and thanks to her we experienced soooo much more of the harder to find sites and scenes!), and her genuine desire to make sure that our first time to experience Ireland, wouldn't be our last! What incredible Irish hospitality! The many pictures of her house and yard, while beautiful, are no comparison to seeing it firsthand. Being there makes you feel as if you are in a dream! Looking out the front windows across her lawn and incredible flowerbeds, gives you a view across the large valley of pastures and farms. Out the side window, a view of her stables, with her three lovely horses looking out, ready to greet you a horse version of "good morning"! She also has a most incredible variety of hens and roosters, large and small, some varieties I had never seen before, and she know each by their personal names. Incredibly they listen to her too! And the roosters sound wonderful in the morning. Her two dogs are so well trained and are a pleasure to be around. Our dear host has a wonderful eye for details and her house and it furnishings, antiques and ambience, made us feel as if we were living in the 1920's, like in the movies, but with all the convenience and amenities of today. A real hand has to go out for her forethought and design that she put into constructing a new house that had such an old world feel. It was a privilege to stay their for a week (I wish it could have been longer), and given the opportunity, we would stay there again in a heartbeat! We cannot say enough about how we appreciated the area, but especially about making all our new friends! Thank you so much
