Winter stay at Devlin's Cottage
A charming, beautiful and cosy old stone cottage of 3 rooms. Basic but adequate facilities. Being able to have a wood fire was a wonderful. The bed was very comfortable. The cottage could be improved with a second bedside table and lamp and 2 extra lights in the kitchen/dining/lounge room; namely, a standard lamp next to the long sofa for reading and another light over the cooking area as the ceiling light was not particularly strong and not well placed given the configuration of cooking facilities. Stayed 2 nights and wished we could have stayed longer.

Perfect for a quiet getaway
Small, charming cottage, comfortable in its simplicity and unencumbered by unnecessary comforts/distractions. Perfect for a quiet retreat, sans screens, and a short walk to an unspoilt beach.
