Mist on the Mountains, A dog at my feet
A welcoming fire, sheets that smell sweet
Endless green fields, time without plans
knitting and reading, Cup of tea in my
hands
Dozing by the fire, lovely warm soup
Falling asleep to the sound of rain on the
roof.
Thanks so much

To Ireland with Love
I have stood on your hilltops
Stared into your skies
been soaked by your sea
and cooled by your breeze
I have danced with your people
walked your mountains and valleys
tramped through your meadows
and gathered your flowers
I have tasted your beer, whisky and cider
learned your songs
been kissed by your puppies
and sung to sleep by your rain
I have breathed your sweet air
been held in your arms
Thanks again for this special place
Its even more beautiful
than I remembered

beautiful house and amazing views but what we found here is far beyond
our expectations. Its not only outstanding in its look but also warm in
its character. We've experienced many unforgettable adventures and even
the rain didn't seem to be a problem. There was no chance of us being
bored here. Well done! Thank you very much for a great music session.
