In an age where it’s harder than ever to go about your daily life without the benefit of a smartphone and a high-speed internet connection, one woman in Co Fermanagh has said she couldn’t be happier living in a rural cottage without electricity or running water.
81-year-old Margaret Gallagher was born in her Mullylusty Cottage near Belcoo in the early 1940s, and to this day sticks to the values she was brought up with.
While she says the small cottage in rural Fermanagh could do with a bit of work, she gets by just fine without all the modern ‘luxuries’ we are all now accustomed to.
