    All was good !!

    Breakfast was amazing, such a choice, more like you would get at a good hotel. We are 4 ladies on motorcycles and the owner dropped us into Wicklow both evenings without being asked. A taxi was 7 or 8 euros for the 4 of us , depending which driver lol.

    ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

    Fiona is an exceptional hostess! Since I was traveling by buses & trains on my visit to Ireland, I tried to choose lodging close to each town's city center. Wicklow is a smaller town than I had imagined, and Glen na Smole was a little more than a mile or so out of town. Fiona not only picked me up from the bus stop the day I arrived, she drove me back into town for dinner that evening. She even arranged for me to have dinner at a very good restaurant! I then took a taxi back to the B&B for the night. After a delicious breakfast in the cozy, sunny breakfast room, Fiona AGAIN drove me back to the bus stop in town and I went happily on to Dublin for the remaining few days of my trip. I would like to add that I am celebrating my 85th birthday in 18 days, and I was using a cane to steady myself on this trip to attend my niece's wedding, apprehensively, I must add, but I was overwhelmed by the kindness of the Irish people who assisted me getting on and off of busses & train attendants who directed me to the right car where I had booked a ticket. This trip confirmed for me that there are far more good, caring people in our world than those who are not. THANK YOU, FIONA!

    Nothing, however, if you are a larger person, be sure to ask for a larger bath. It was fine for us.

    Quiet, welcoming home with Fiona our lovely, hospitable hostess. Toured the Historic Wicklow Gail (recommended), traveled 1/2 hr to walk the Glen da Lough area, bonus: found God’s Cottage ( small shop with quiet prayer room) Beautiful area!
