Marsh Cottage F91 N4A9

Catherine was a lovely host. We easily picked up the keys. Communication was excellent and the email explanation of the location was really helpful because the cottage entrance track is secluded. We loved the cottage for its quiet location and closeness to the stony beach at the back of Stredagh Beach. The rooms were lovely and clean and the beds really comfortable. The weather was truly awful with heavy rain and wind but the cottage was cosy. We had everything we needed to cook with lots of plates and utensils. The cottage is as described with no WIFI or TV. This was not an issue to us and it gave me an opportunity to escape my work emails. Mobile phone coverage has really improved with two new telecom masts in Cliffoney so a mobile hotspot was available to give basic internet connectivity, if needed. The cottage is in a great location and we enjoyed swimming in the rain at Mullaghmore and Stredagh Beach, which are both close by. We watched "Normal People" on the laptop and tried to forget lockdown, when I longed to walk the beach. Scenes were filmed nearby on Stredagh Beach. Two nights, I watched an Otter swimming in the lagoon which I never observed before in this area. Overall we had a lovely stay in a traditional cottage and we would love to stay again.

Nothing really. Happy with the cottage facilities as described in the adverb.

A beautiful setting for a family holiday in a quiet and private location with lovely countryside views from every window. Handy shops within a short driving distance selling local produce. Great swim locations nearby, even at the end of October! Would highly recommend.

It can be a bit wet and wild when the weather is bad, but the little stove makes it cosy and a great place to retreat to with a good book and cup of coffee. Or take time away from phones and wifi to chat. A great holiday altogether!
