This is a chronicle of a year on a remote cottage farm on the County Mayo coast, by the Irish Times columnist Michael Viney. He tells of his family's self-sufficiency in the country, weaving personal memories and reflections into nature's annual cycle.
I have searched for this for years.
The opening credits show his cottage, actually my grandparents before he bought it, and the acre behind.
A magical place. So many memories, childhood adventures...my mother, one of six children were raised in this two bed home.
Truly outstanding views...hills, rivers and mountains to the rear....the wild Atlantic with the mysterious islands in front, with the most beautiful beaches between.
Thanks for posting this wonderful film.
Are you in Louisburgh? I am in Louisburgh.
Unfortunately not. My grandfather offered me a bit of land by the cottage when I was a child. My mother said ' what'll he want that for?'. So we lived in London. I've returned so many times. I've Mcnally family near Killeen church, also in Westport and Castlebar. I'm in Cornwall UK
Fabulous documentary from a truly delightful man whose weekly pieces in the IT are as fresh and informative as ever.
He has lived a remarkable life. A Great documentary.
What a beautiful place to call home.
RIP
