In Kenmare, County Kerry, we stayed in this beautiful thatched cottage, which we had guessed to be a couple of hundred years old, perhaps recently renovated. Appearances can be deceptive, however. The cottage was built from scratch only four years ago specifically as a bed-and-breakfast guest-house. While his neighbours were building themselves modern bungalows, the eccentric Mr Breen built a stone cottage with a thatched roof - and all the mod cons that modern building regulations demand. The shy Mr Breen spends most days fishing and, when there is a demand, instructing his guests in the art of drowning worms. His wife is an outsize, outgoing woman whose sole aim in life is to feed her guests to bursting - typical Irish hospitality. The town of Kenmare is charming, with three of four pubs in every street - like most Irish towns, by the way. And the young women there are phenomenally gorgeous.
