We all had a very enjoyable holiday, but wet week. A real pity the weather took a turn for the worst. But the scenery and tranquillity of this area made up for it. It's so nice to walk along a country road and enjoy the most beautiful surrounding. Carrickfinn beach is amazing, to walk along even in the rain is magnificent or even better to sit and watch the waves race onto the beach, will always be a beautiful memory.,, Bonners bar a must for the friendly atmosphere and lovely food. Leo's Tavern food excellent. The local shop friendly and pleasant staff. No hassle or bustle, what everybody needs for a few weeks, Enjoyed this wonderful area. ps This house 5 star, accommodation excellent.
