The location is stunning, and the owner, Cate, was so gracious and lovely. We had some trouble finding the cottage the first time, but once you do, it’s easy to get to. The charming town of Dingle is only 10 or so minutes away and has some very good dining options. We could definitely have stayed longer— there is so much to do in the area.
