Beautiful spot

Great location for a drive around Connemara, a visit to the Aran Islands and a day to Dog's Bay. One of the highlights was a close encounter with 3 cuckoos fighting over territory or a female. They called and circled for about an hour over the house.

Great Location - Property a bit tired

The property is in a lovely remote location and there is plenty in the surrounding area to explore. The house keeper is really helpful and provided great information about the area and facilities - local eating places etc. With regard to the property it is getting a little tired and wasn't too happy about the use of extension leads, one of which fed the fridge and didn't actually work. With the house manager's help we managed to sort this out. minor gripe - the curtains didn't provide any reduction in light which some might not worry about. My main problem with the property is we were a group of five adults and one baby and the kitchen is just totally inadequate for that number of people. it would be fine to just heat up some simple food but not prepare a full meal. The above said it was very clean and tidy and has a nice lounge area.

Leider war der Zustand des Hauses nicht für den Preis angemessen. Der Backofen war nur eingeschränkt benutzbar. Es hang ein Zettel auf dem Stand "unter Fach nicht benutzen, Tür ist kaputt"

Hi Dominik, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you felt the condition of the property did not reflect the price paid. We completely understand your frustration regarding the oven, and this is something that should have been addressed rather than left with a note advising limited use. We will be following this up with the property owner to ensure the issue is properly looked into and resolved for future guests. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your feedback and hope you were still able to enjoy your time in Connemara. Jade Connemara Holiday Lettings
