We have been for the second time in Cottage 215 and it was as lovely as the first time. The house is well equipped with everything you need for a holiday with family or friends.The location at the tip of Aughrus Peninsula is fantastic, you are literally surrounded by the Atlantic. All windows have sea view. No matter if the weather is nice and you enjoy your breakfast on the terrace or if it's stormy and you watch the rage of the elements outside through the panoramic window - it's always a great experience. And there is no better way to end the than with a peat fire at the open fire place.

The location is spectacular with beautiful sea views. The mattresses need replacing and the water power from the shower is poor. But apart from that we had a fantastic week with our family. Lots to do in the locality if you like the outdoor life. I would definitely recommend a stay in this house.

Fab view overlooking the sea but no outdoor furniture to sit outside and enjoy it bar a couple of white plastic chairs! Please please and also a barbecue would be fantastic. Still think 20e a day for electricity is outrageous!

The natural location of this cottage is outstanding, there is everything you need in this house, not super modern but has all you require whilst on a break. If you can entertain yourselves, the water, the rugged landscape and the peaceful tranquility is ideal to get away from the day to day grind and refresh the soul. We highly recommend to families who enjoy a walk, a cycle, a swim, watersports or to groups who just want to get away from it all. We will return.

Location is fabulous, ocean views all around. Quiet location so great for a week of relaxing/doing very little.

The house is tired (needs a paint) & some furniture (beds are old & seating by the fire is shabby) needs replacing.

The extra €20p/n for electricity is a rip off as the house is already expensive!!

Would recommend the location but the house needs work.

Really enjoyed the stay. Accommodation was fine although a little bit dated. If looking for peace and quiet this is the perfect location. The only drawback was the €20 per day cost for electricity. We were visiting sites most of the time and spent little time in the house as the weather was so good. The only electric shower in the property stopped working after 2 days, so the charge for electricity was even more bitter. €20 per day is at the top end for domestic property- especially in summer!!

It's a fab location and the house suits us very well.
However I think that 20e per day is exorbitant and that the electricity should be metered. That would not be hard to sort and would be much fairer. This summer it was a joke with those very hot weeks. Why should a renter in July pay for a renter who has a wet week in August. Seriously unfair.
The barbeque should be either replaced or thoroughly cleaned it was unusable.
A salad spinner would really help.
Aside from the above its great

I have been staying in Connemara for 40 years and this house has been top of the list. The views are just captivating and the only sounds are the birds and the sea, great location with hours and hours of exploring/wildlife/activities on your doorstep. Great set up in the house with plenty of kitchen space and large dining table for feasting, whilst still enjoying the views. Decorated in keeping with the cottage with lots of really interesting pieces and good book collection. Lots of individual cosy spaces within the living areas so never feels cramped. Comfy beds (not always the case in rentals) and all home comforts you would require. Lovely atmosphere and feel to the house, i think lots of happy memories have be made here over the years. We plan on coming back to make more.

Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine dans ce cottage à Claddaghduff. La maison est magnifique, il y a tout ce qu'il faut, rien ne manque pour passer un agréable séjour. Elle est située dans un endroit calme et splendide avec vue sur la mer de tous les côtés. Le rêve!

We had a very good week at this cottage in Claddaghduff. The house is beautiful, there is everything you need, nothing is missing to spend a pleasant stay. It is located in a quiet and splendid place with sea views from all sides. The dream!

We stayed at Gannough's for 3 nights and would love to stay again. We loved how quiet it was, how we could sit looking out of the window staring at the beautiful coastline for hours. The house is clearly well-loved and cared for, we enjoyed the personal feel it had. The kitchen had all the utensils you needed, gas cooker and was clean. The bathrooms are simple but do the job well. Bed linen was clean and good quality. We would definitely recommend this to others and hope to come again.



It was really good as we were paying 10e a day for heating it would have been nice to have some fuel

OK so yes it is all about the view and what a view.
But this cottage also has excellent facilities and a quality finish in a perfect location.
Decent broadband also available although not stated in the description.
Only 3 other properties with it at the end of Aughrus point and the week we were there they were all empty.
So we had the whole place to ourselves, absolutely magical.

Beautiful views of the sea which is only day 150m away via full length windows in the living area. Cottage was well equipped. Well looked after by Eileen who was very pleasant to deal with. Bit remote, which we liked, but need to stock up food etc in Clifden.

Despite of the cold and windy weather, we had a nice, relaxing time.
Beautifull view of the ever changing sea.
In the house we enjoyed the many books.




All agreed the best holiday house we've ever stayed in.

Beautiful. Remote. A place to revisit. There we beautiful views from every window. We had an elderly visitor and the accommodation suited her. The children enjoyed hopping around the rocks and fishing. The wee Caribbean blue anchor beach nearby was a joy. The circular route around the lake was great for a walk or run. I caught a wrasse! My dh's mackerel got away I'm sorry to say. We'd be delighted to return some day.
