Our group of five recently stayed three nights in the Eden Cottage Retreat. It truly lives up to its name.
Booking was easy and Mark was always quick and helpful in his responses to any inquiry. He provided a wonderful overview of the area and excellent directions to the house.
The house itself is beautiful, well kept and had all the amenities we needed. It is nestled away so you feel as if you are in your own little world at the edge of a wonderful vista of green hills, yet it's only a five to ten minute drive to shopping and restaurants. The house is also very near the M18, which links Ennis conveniently to Shannon Airport and runs from Galway to Limerick and beyond, making the house an excellent location for exploring the west of Ireland.
We were able to easily take day trips to Ennis, Connemara, Galway, the Cliffs of Moher, and we even ventured as far as the Dingle Peninsula. Dingle was about two hours, but it is a beautiful drive and well worth the time, in my view.
Had we stayed a bit longer, we may have used the hot tub, which is a nice bonus, but we were there long enough to get a visit from Charlie : )
I would highly recommend the Eden Cottage Retreat and we hope to return someday!
