An atmospheric, characterful and charming cottage, - you’ve given it new life for another few hundred years. Had a lovely time exploring the coastline and all its spectacular attractions.
Leon and Iain, Warwickshire, England
Quelle immersion dans cette Irlande chaleureuse, reposante et tellement dépaysante. Et au milieu de tout ce parcours – The Avish ! Un lieu magique qui surplombe la campagne et nous a permis pendant ces 10 jours de nous sentir hors du temps.
Vincent, Carole, Damien, Brittany, France
From all who stayed here for 3 weeks working on the Big Weave UK City of Culture 2013. Thank you for the use of the cottage. Evenings around the kitchen table and the wood burning stoves restored us for yet another day’s weaving.
Diane and the Big Weave
We are in love with this place.
Sheenin Family, Liverpool
Slan! We loved our stay at the Avish Cottage. We felt the house brought us back in time. We would love to come back in the futyre. We came up for the Fleadh Ceoil na Erieann and we thoroughly enjoyed it – there was something for all age groups. After a long day out in the town, we would look forward to coming back to the cottage. We will be back.
The Fitzgeralds, Dingle Co Kerry
Thank you so much for our wonderful stay in the Avish. It’s the perfect combination of a secluded country cottage 10 minutes from all the wonderful entertainment and history Derry has to offer. A little gem of an Irish country cottage (but with wifi and the warmth of a wood burner!) We will be back!
Claire, Karl, Orla, Jamie and Dan, Manchester
Ideal location for our family gathering – exiles’ return – and no better place to spend Christmas. Home from home. Thank you for letting us use your lovely cottage. Hugely appreciated!
