What a beautiful cottage with the most stunning views. It was so comfortable and so clean. ( I always bring a few cleaning products with me but they were not needed as it was spotless)The location is great for seeing Connemara with the most wonderful beaches. Clifden has excellent restaurants which have live music on every night. The cottage is very spacious but weirdly has only one bathroom The kitchen is really well stocked with loads of pots and pans etc. a microwave and a coffee maker. I really would have thought a cottage at this standard would have provided a few basic essentials in the kitchen like tea,coffee S&P to start with until you get to a store for a shop. I would highly recommend this cottage and would definitely stay here again

A Wonderful Stay in a Beautiful Location ☘️

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful holiday home in Ireland. The house was lovely, very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was absolutely amazing and a perfect place to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Ireland. The communication was also excellent. Everyone we had contact with was very friendly, helpful and easy to reach. If we could give one small suggestion, it would be to add a covered outdoor area. With the changeable Irish weather, it would have been lovely to have a sheltered place where you can still sit outside and enjoy the surroundings, even when it rains. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and look back on our holiday with very happy memories. We would definitely recommend this beautiful place!

Would go back in a heartbeat! Already scheming next trip with a longer stay! The cottage was well equipped and full of character! There was no shortage of travelers necessities, paper towels, toilet paper, towels etc.. Out of every place we have ever traveled in our 12 years; they had the most user friendly and efficient washer/dryer and microwave. First place of four that we stayed at that provided cozy throw blankets! Love the beach themed decor. The view…. Stop! Beautiful!

This place is a gem. It was an excellent Basecamp for us to explore the west part of Ireland. The home has an amazing view, the bedrooms were lovely and well maintained. The kitchen had a large oven and microwave for us to cook. There were plenty of plates and utensils for the family. The washer and dryer were key as it allowed us to pack less and allow for more souvenirs . We stopped in LIDL for all cooking needs.I would recommend and would love to come back.

Excellent location

Nice bungalow. Problem with oven door which was a pity but I’m sure it will be replaced. Spacious bungalow with plenty of room for the five of us. Lovely views and great location for exploring - we have been coming to the area for fifty years so we didn’t need to venture far anyway. Clifden/Kylmore/Cleggan all within 20/30 mins drive. Good communication with the host and very friendly and helpful. I would recommend and book again !!

Comfortable cottage in a stunning setting

We enjoyed our stay here. Our contact Martina was a pleasure to deal with. The cottage has everything you need, but one or two improvements would help: the oven was tricky to use as the numbers on the dials had worn off and the door didn't close. There is only one bathroom, which may be an issue for large groups. The house was immaculately clean, and very comfortable. The views of the 12 Bens (when not smothered in cloud) are spectacular. I would recommend the cottage without hesitation.

Idyllic Location

Peaceful and stunning location on Sky Road with easy access to gorgeous coastline of both north and south Connemara. Helpful and friendly caretaker. House is spacious with on the whole a very well equipped kitchen, perfect for self catering. Minor improvements would be to provide a bathroom towel rack and some oven gloves. Also, please secure the corners of the extractor fan hood which inflicted a few painful bumps over our stay. Finally, please provide some basic essentials such as tea, coffee, salt, pepper, cooking oil etc so guests can prepare a quick snack on their arrival or breakfast before doing a big supermarket shop. In our experience this is standard in holiday home rentals. We would definitely consider renting this cottage again.

Moldy Cottage

The views on this cottage are stunning but that's where it ends for us. One of the rooms had mold on the walls and several of the roller shades have mold. We got in late at night after dark and didn't notice the mold in the room. My husband woke up sick. I notified the property management company and they are going to relay it to the owners. This cottage is a health hazard in my opinion until the mold is remediated.

Sehr gute Lage!

Haus in sehr schöner Lage. Ausstattung in der Küche ist für vier Personen ausreichend, genug Geschirr ist vorhanden. Das Wohnzimmer ist nett eingerichtet. Die Matratzen sind etwas zu weich, aber noch akzeptabel. Die Lage ist wunderbar, schöner Ausblick vom Wohnzimmer auf das Meer. In das Zentrum von Clifden sind es nur 3,5 km.
