The home had such beautiful sea views, great warm and welcoming vibe. We enjoyed the fireplace and a cup of tea at night. The village of An Spidal was lovely with a few cute shops and good nearby local restaurant recommendations by owner. The home owner was very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the nearby cows just down the lane. Idyllic and wonderful property.
