It's one of those stunning late spring mornings...
The tide was high just before sunrise, and the almost-full strawberry moon slinked slowly from the brightening night sky, slipping down behind Claddagh Harbour. A precious calm in the air—sure where else would you rather be?

It invited a stillness within, a moment to pause, to breathe, and reflect.

Summer stirs on the horizon, full of promise—the people it will bring to our doors, welcomed like friends we've yet to meet. The stories we’ll share, the tips, the craic, and all the memories they’ll make as they fill their cups with joy, love, and holiday magic.

It’s been 22 years since I first opened the doors of The Heron’s Rest, this sweet little townhouse by the sea, and now we are three Townhouses. Together with fantastic support I’ve welcomed people, fed them the best of our local food, and shared my love of this place.

Today, as the season awakens and I feel the excitement for summer stir again, I’m reminded—it’s a labour of love that has truly been good to me and to those we have had the pleasure of welcoming 🙏
