We were a group of 11 friends, and we had the chance to spend a 4-days week end in the wonderful Guinness House in Ballyconneely.
Everything there is perfect: the landscape of course (white sand beach with turquoise blue water, and breathtaking view on Errisbeg), the incredible garden (both sides of the house), but also the house itself, with its numerous rooms, that big kitchen / dining room, and the classy, yet sober decoration. Time has no effect there, hours are seconds, or years, you're never sure!
And when comes the moment to leave, you have that unutterable feeling that you were one of the most privileged person on earth...
