Wonderful place to call "home base" for a couple of days. Shiela was a wonderful host- the perfect balance of motherliness and no-nonsense. The memory of her Irish breakfast still makes my mouth water, and I think I'm always going to miss her home-made bread! Probably the most memorable thing about the Shiela was how accommodating she was in respect to our comfort. On our second day there, I asked her if it was okay if I buy some firewood so I could light a fire in the sitting room to read books from her modest library to my son by the warmth of a fire (perfect after those rainy days!). Upon returning from our adventures that day, I smiled as I saw that smoke was already rising from her chimney. She had made a fire ready for us (who knows how long she kept it up), and she made sure that there was always a fire going at night for the rest of our stay. Probably one of my favorite memories from our tour of Ireland will be reading by the fire with my son. Thank you, Shiela!!
