We loved our time at the Hidden Lodge. It was a perfect place for us to tuck in for a couple days of a slow-down in the middle of our two week trip around Ireland. The quiet town of Ardara had anything we needed and even some sweet little shops to explore. (Definitely stop and visit with Eddie at his tweed shop and get a demonstration of his loom!) We are more scenery and wilderness seekers than city shoppers, though, and the area did not disappoint! Day trips to see waterfalls, mountains, and beaches were just what we were looking for. And even on one of our days when we needed to lay low, the lodge itself is THE most lovely haven.
