We had a wonderful week in Jane's immaculate and beautiful cottage in Mannin, Connemara. The cottage was spacious and decorated to a very high standard. The kitchen had everything we needed and all the equipment was in perfect condition (we loved the Nick Moss pottery!) The bedrooms are well appointed and very comfortable indeed! Thank you to Jane for a very warm welcome and we would highly recommend this stunning cottage to friends and family in our favourite part of the world!
Very comfortable house in a nice place however we think that the dining room table is suitable for 6, we were 7 , there were 6 chairs and we were tight around the table.
Beautiful property . Very lovely rooms. Centrally located on bridge street . Beside so many fab restaurants pubs shops . Welcome pack was a lovely touch .butter bread and milk. Tea coffee nespresso pods all a plus.
Very comfortable house, well equipped and well situated for walking. Nearby lakes for fishing and beach 200m away.
House is very well laid out and had plenty of room for our group of small kids teens and adults.perfect location small walk down to clear waters of omey strand.
Very happy to recommend Honeysuckle Cottage. This holiday house is of very high standard, well presented and thoughtfully kitted out for a comfortable stay. Suited us perfectly as couple with 2 adult children. Ideal location, with terrific sea and mountain views, in beautiful north Connemara. Pier and beach few minutes walk away, very well stocked grocery stop around corner, just 15 mins walk to 2 pubs serving good food. Major historic, cultural and naturally beautiful sites to visit in surrounding areas will involve drive through stunning scenery. We have rebooked for next year.
beautiful setting, highly efficient house, turf fires, clean as a pin garden designed to protect if windy, suntrap when sunny
A small, charming house near Cleggan Harbour. Everything is new and well-equipped. Good communication. Be aware that there's no Wi-Fi.
What a superb place for a large family gathering! Very comfortable and well equipped; loads of communal space; and very good sized en suite rooms to allow private time as well. Great views and access to superb beaches (superb even in February!) and great seafood. Very close to a good shop, pub and playground. Bernie is a very helpful and accessible owner.
Amazing location stunning house we all loved the garden area to sit out enjoying nature at its best.
I can’t believe we found this place. Patsy’s Cottage is one of those rare spots that just feels right the moment you arrive. It’s a beautiful little thatched-roof cottage in the Connemara countryside, with just the right mix of rustic charm and quiet luxury. The setting is peaceful and surrounded by wildflowers, but it’s still close to a small fishing town where you can grab groceries, shop, or have a pint at the pub. We used it as a home base to explore the region—beaches, hikes, historic sites—but honestly, we were just as happy staying in. There’s a wood-fired hot tub and sauna, an ic...more
A lovely experience. A lovely home and location. Veronica the owner of the house was wondrful and very helpful. We all had a wonderful time
Ist a very good place to stay. The House is very large with a lot of rooms and bath. We enjoy the beautiful contryside.
Beautiful home, beautiful scenery with sea views, exceptionally clean and the most comfortably beds I have ever slept in. Superb home, will definitely be staying again and recommend to all.
We (a couple) stayed a week in Oyster House during August and were very comfortable. My first impression when we entered was of a light, spacious accommodation that was well insulated and cosy. The views at the front are lovely. We had all we needed at the cottage to self cater very happily. The property would however benefit from a few easy to do additions such as a coat rack near the door for hanging wet items and perhaps a shoe rack, and a more substantial door mat. On first arrival I also had to clean dirt off nearly all light switches as they were greasy and smeared and missed by the oth...more
We loved our stay in the cottage, it’s incredibly warm and comfortable (needed as the weather was not great!). The kitchen is very well equipped for a holiday cottage, views are beautiful and the host was very helpful and responsive. We hope to come back!
We had a wonderful time at Teach Ban. The house is so spacious, well and uniquely equipped that we didn‘t miss anything at all. The kitchen had more items than we could have asked for. The beds were grand and cosy. It is situated in the middle between Westport and Louisburgh. - Perfect for trips around Clew Bay like Achill Island, Clare Island or Belmullet. Staunton’s Pub right next to it is an adorable place for a lovely drink and chat in the evening. So we spent a most joyful and comfortable time in this house. When we had a question Austin and his lovely wife came for help at once. Thank ...more
We found everything we needed for our stay in the flat, and the host was very friendly, helpful and availble when needed. We could find it very well, and there is a lot what you can do. E.g., Gassilaun beach is less than 2km away. The welcome present with scones and tea was marvellous! The kitchen contained even a dishwasher that was very handy for us. Nevertheless, there are always some drawbacks. The WiFi signal in our flat was quite weak. We recommend to ask also for the code for the WiFi for the flat upstairs, as this router was better available. Furthermore, the beds measure around 1,9...more
Excellent location and a great novelty for a family to stay in a "Night Club" over night. We will be back!
Great location for accessing Connemara for our family of 6. So many lovely picturesque sandy beaches within half hr driving radius without major crowds. Lots of hillwalking/trekking options. Inish Boffin worth a daytrip. Our crew voted Keoghs in Ballyconneely and Veldons in Letterfrack as the best places for eating out. House lovely - comfy, quaint, well done up, all amenities, good wifi, well maintained grounds. Spotless on arrival. Would have no hesitation in booking again.
We had a great stay in Trish's Carraholly home. The owner was sooooo helpful and gracious. The house itself was so deceptive from the outside. Open the door and it was a wonderland of comfort and joy on every floor. There was seven of us with lots of space for everyone. Many surprises for little ones and a very safe garden to play in. The only sounds were the sheep, lambs and birds. PEACEFUL! We will return.
We have recently spent a wonderful ten day break in this lovely apartment. We couldn’t fault it. Marie and Sean were perfect hosts and were very welcoming. We know the area well and the position is quite lovely. We can highly recommend a stay here.
Beatrice was very responsive to any questions I had. The house was very suitable for our needs. Very close to Roonagh pier and beaches
When we walked into the Stone House, we were overwhelmed. It really is a gem of a place. Location is fantastic. So much love and care has been put in to the cottage. Perfect for families and dogs. We had our two doggies. It’s so well equipped to withstand the busyness that comes when travelling with a family. We didn’t want to leave! The children loved the comfort. It was just the most perfect place to come home to after a busy day sight seeing. We will definitely return.
First of all a thank you to Edel and Steven who couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. As for the cottage, we loved it! Well maintained and equipped, clean, comfortable, in a lovely quiet just off main road setting. A very short stroll to the main road where left takes you to the village centre, and straight on takes you down to the pier where there's a lovely sheltered beach and swimming area. From there there's a lovely wheelchair accessible coastal walk that ends beside the main beach, opposite the craft centre. The house is very well equipped with plenty of towels, cleaning ...more
We had a lovely time in Connemara, the house was a good base for sightseeing, warm & comfortable on inclement days.
We were delighted to find the cottage was Tardis-like in being so well designed and spacious inside. It is really good value, and walking distance to a great pub. The Renvyle peninsula is just beautiful with glorious beaches looking out to mountains, islands and surf. Fab stay.
This was our place to land for an entire month and it had all of the amenities we required. Whatever problems arose were quickly and conveniently dealt with by the owner and we were able to enjoy a comfortable vacation. It was especially nice to find that there was an elevator available if needed to get to the second floor and the apartment itself was all on one level. We had a fantastic trip because we had a great place to come home to.
We had a great week. The house is a bit isolated and offers a pleasant calm. The vegetation in the garden suffered significant damage following the storm at the beginning of the year and it has not yet been repaired. Everything was available in the accommodation, but a small coffee maker would have been nice!
Thoroughly enjoyed the week. Cottage and accommodation were excellent, the weather was absolutely awful! We came with no expectations of sunbathing or swimming! Loved Ireland and will definitely come back, especially if we are offered a good deal.
we had a lovely stay in Renvyle Cottage. It was very comfortable, warm and welcoming. The location suited us well as we were exploring by car everyday, and then happy to return to the cottage emin the evenings
We enjoyed our stay at the Convent. Ten people fit fine each room with individual bathroom. Walk into town and situated for Westport or Clifden.
A beautiful setting although the weather is inevitably variable but didn’t stop us getting to the beach each day for digging and some swimming. The bedrooms work well for families with children and some for adult couples. The kitchen is small but well equipped with 2 dishwashers and the utility has washing machine and tumbler dryer - vital. The owner is very welcoming and friendly. Very relaxed
We loved our week at Oak Lodge. The cottage was very comfortable and equipped with fantastic views, in a lovely, quiet location. Letterfrack nearby was handy for almost anything you need, with bigger shops a short drive away in Clifden. There's loads to go and visit in the area. In fact, we need a return visit to see more!
Our stay at Renvyle 196 Tooreena, was perfect. The location was exactly what we wanted. Quiet,a magical view and walking distance to the beach. The weather was perfect! John, the owner, was helpful in showing us how everything worked. The beach, the sunsets and the countless rainbows marked our stay as magical. Booking was seamless. Our whole experience was a great one to help make our dream come true. A month in Ireland-we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting as our base location.
Great location for visiting the islands, local beaches & Croagh Patrick. Warm welcome with home baking.
Second time here and will definitely be back again Cosy and comfortable with everything you need We love it
The inside needs a lot of renovations there is mould growing on the walls in the downstairs main bedroom and also on the tiles the grout is a full of mould black mould. The shower in the ensuite bathroom is held together by duct tape and the shower in the main bathroom downstairs didn’t work. Lots of the radiators have been corroded and have metal flakes coming off them. Everything just needs updating.
This is an amazing property in a stunning location. Brian, the owner, is a great host and my granddaughter loved feeding the chickens and fish. Fresh eggs every morning was a bonus as was the welcome pack. The surrounding area is stunning, great beaches and very good restaurants (try the Ardagh Hotel). Clifden is a lovely little town, nice cafes, a very good supermarket and many individual shops.
We spent 5 nights in this charming, cosy cottage. The ‘cooks’ kitchen was especially well-equipped with all the pots, pans and gizmos. Oh joy to find not one, but several knives capable of cutting a vegetable in a holiday let! Freshly painted in gorgeous colours and tastefully furnished (scandi vintage?). I would have happily moved in and stayed for longer but it really felt like someone’s own home, rather than a holiday let - so I couldn’t. Piles of games, puzzles and books for kids and adults. Lovely bedrooms, top knotch bed linen and towels. For us, a mattress topper would have made all th...more
We had a very pleasant stay. Nice walks in Derryclare Nature Reserve and in the neighbourhood of Ballinahinsh Castle
Lovely house very comfortable and a great location. There were two issues we thought could be improved on: 1. Stoppers in the sinks in the bathrooms and the kitchen didn’t work. 2. Toilets took an age to refill after flushing.
Lovely house in a quiet beautiful location ..............................................................................................................................................................................................................
We absolutely loved our stay in Chaoimhe Cottage. Unbelievable location. Great quick helpfulbresponse from Ann to our queries. Definitely the cleanest house we've ever rented!! I would just love a bigger front window to view the water while I knit!!!!!!! But joking aside it was fantastic. Easy drives from all the points of in in Connemara Hope to be back
Great location and great house. Plenty to do around, including cashel hill and its fantastic views. Barbara and Jennifer are lovely and very helpful. Thanks a lot. Thomas
I spent nearly a week staying in the cottage and it was just wonderful. This is my second time there so I knew exactly what I was heading back to. The lady who runs the cottage is very kind and if you have a problem will try to help you in any way she can. I rented the cottage on my own this time and I felt safe and secure at all times. It is so peaceful there, the beach is a stones throw away and the location couldn’t be any better. It’s a great location for touring around and just a few kilometres from Roundstone village. Highly recommend
Tout est beau dans ce cottage : le cottage lui-même, son intérieur, son extérieur et la campagne environnante. L'accès autonome était facile (Brenda était tout à fait réactive et ses indications étaient précises et claires). Il faut juste anticiper qu'il n'y a pas de réseau même téléphonique ni d'eau potable mais cela fait partie du charme de l'endroit et pour le reste il y a tout le confort nécessaire (eau bien chaude, radiateurs, poêle, four, serviettes, draps, etc.). Nous avons eu un peu froid mais nous avons sous-utilisé les radiateurs je pense. Le cottage est vaste et peut loger 7 personn...more
As timeshare owners we appreciate the upgrade work that has taken place both within the property and to the approach avenue/roadway - no more pot holes is a great plus.. The cushions and dining chair fabric seats urgently need to be re-upholstered as they are frayed and shabby and let the dining area down, so hopefully this is on the list for the coming winter maintenance. We always bring rinse aid with us for the dishwasher and this is always, in our experience, in need of replenishing the machine also indicated that it needed salt so I hope someone keeps this under review. General cleanlines...more
Comfortable house convenient to hotel and short walk to the beach. Beautiful location with view of the lake.
great location, nice amenities. could use some improvements - mirror in second room for instance. also a microwave.
A very spacious house, a few things need upgrading but would recommend it for a holiday in Achill. Location is a little remote but the stunning views make up for this.
Nous avons mis les notes précédentes pour les raisons suivantes : Propreté : meubles cuisine et tiroirs un peu sales. Frigo non nettoyé avec aliments périmés ? Ménage très approximatif. Service client : pas de contact, une feuille avec explications sur chauffage, eau, électricité minimum et feuille de calcul charges à régler. Confort : Bien mais pas de télé (c'était indiqué), ni radio. Cela compte dans le ratio coût/prestations. Condition : Bien. Vrai cottage traditionnel. Emplacement : Très bien situé à 20 minutes à pied de la plage de Glassilaun. Par contre vue mer assez éloignée et ca...more
Great location by the beach, and only 10 minutes drive into Clifden - a good base for exploring Connemara. Kitchen was well equipped, and beds were comfy. A good destination to switch off and enjoy the local area for a week, so many great places to visit nearby
We enjoyed our week in Kilsallagh. Nice well equipped house, living area was brilliant and worked very well. The house was clean and tidy on arrival. Shame the trees and hedges have grown so much the sea view is now hidden! Kilsallagh is a good base for exploring locally, we had some lovely walks and the beaches were brilliant - swimming off Old Head was fantastic. Body boarding at Carrowinsky beach was fun too. Shopping in Louisburgh was good and we were sorry not to be able to get at table at Tia by the River. Overall a great time and we hope to be back in the future.
I was cold at night due to a summer duvet being on the bed and no extra blankets available. Also mattress was bad quality so ended up with a bad crick in my neck and back. Because of this I would most likely not recommend it to others.
Although the house was comfortable enough, the shower barely dribbled and there wasn’t enough hot water for 2 baths so I’ve no idea how 6 would manage. The view of the sea is completely blocked by trees and so you just see a field. Very poor value I thought for an expensive house rental.
