Need help! Barna (The Twelve) or Spiddal (Thatched Roof Cottage)
I realize these are two VERY different options - my husband and I will be staying in 2 B&B's prior to arriving to the Galway area, 2 nights in Kenmare and 2 nights in Dingle - will be a long scenic drive coming from Dingle as we are stopping off in Doolin and Cliffs of Moher.
Our purpose of the last 2 days is to: 1. Take a plan to the Aran Islands, or 2. explore a nearby castle, go fishing, etc (something other than driving long distances!) My thoughts on The Twelve is that it might be a nice 'change of pace' as we might be b&b'ed out? Not sure. The hotel looks gorgeous and does boast wonderful reviews. The cottage, however, also looks very intriguing and not the typical b&b atmosphere...also with wonderful reviews! PLUS very close to the airport for getting to the Aran Isles the following day.
So please fellow Fodorians all thoughts and suggestions are widely appreciated. Thanks so much.
