Very helpful & friendly caretakers & attended very promptly to our queries. Great location and space. Excellent value for money. Lovely restaurants. Plenty to do.
The apartment was absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. The welcome and advice from Brian was much appreciated. Clifden is full of terrific restaurants and pubs, and to be based right in the centre of town was wonderful. As we stayed during the Arts Festival, the entertainment was amazing. We enjoyed a fantastic few days, and the accommodation is highly recommended.
We were delighted with this property for our stay in Clifden. Centrally located, clean, comfortable and perfect for our family. We look forward to trying get back up there. Owen S
This year was our second to stay in Letterfrack and in the exact same apt as last year. We need ground floor as my son has special needs and finds stairs difficult. The apartment caters for our needs as a family, my Mother, myself and my 16y/o son. We each get a bedroom which is great. Louisa let us into the apartment early on arrival as per my request which was gladly welcomed after travelling over four hours. My sons bedroom only had two hand towels, but we used a beach towel. It would've been nice to have a bath towel provided for him though. My only one complaint and it is a small ...more
Everything was excellent. We loved the cozy house and the lake. Walking to the city is a bit further than we expected.
Great location, weather fantastic and family enjoyed it. Beaches and things to do are plentiful around the area and the restaurants are good
Our son attended the Ceol Na Mara String Summer School in Kylemore Abbey and there is no better location than this to stay as it is so near to the abbey. Great restaurants, Connemara National Park/Diamond Hill and grocery store all within walking distance. Beautiful places to visit just a short drive away. Perfect!
We just wanted to say that my family and I had a fabulous stay in Carna at the apartment hosted by Nora Folan. Nora was the ideal and generous host and the apartment was immaculate and nice and warm and perfectly situated for our explorations of Connemara and the Gaeltacht. We hope to book there again. Please pass on our thanks to Nora. We rate our experience there ten out of 10. Thank you and best wishes in 2023.
A very comfortable place with all you need for your stay. Well located in the center of the town. Well communication with customer service
My friends and I love this "cottage" For sure I recommend this place. Right on the water. Very scenic Nice vibe, comfortable house. Super cosy fire with wood and turf provided. If you decide to spend time at home cooking the kitchen is very well equipped with any tools you may need.
great cottage, service, location. no issues at all during our stay. Would highly recommend this property
Gorgeous warm house - a fabulous place to spend time with a large group of friends. It is very solid, insulated, and has everything you could ask for. The heating system was easy to turn on and off. All amenities in the modern kitchen. The house is close enough to the beach that you can hear the waves, and just a short walk to Cleggan town. The owner of the house was very kind in all his dealings with us. Thank you!
Lovely house, very comfortable and so close to Clifden town.Great base to tour Connemara. Will be back.
My wife and I had an enjoyable 5 night stay. Tina and Donal are gracious hosts and were very helpful in getting us situated. The kitchen is well supplied and very functional. With SuperValu just steps away, we bought groceries and cooked several meals. There are also many options for eating out within short walking distance. The deck has a lovely view of the bay. The apartment is very clean and comfortable.
Lovely cosy cottage in a great location. Kitchen has everything you might need. Beds very comfortable. Would stay again.
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we enjoyed the location and surroundings. This cottage is a great base for touring Connemara (which we did a lot of during the 10 days): comfortable, well appointed, well equipped and lovely decorated. Fast and efficient WLAN was constantly available during our stay. We were only three but bigger parties will find plenty of space, too. Although the owners live on site, we had all the privacy we needed to feel home away from home. Aedan, the host, is friendly and accessible and although we never had any reason to call for help or support with ...more
Plenty of room for everyone and well kitted out with enough of the essential items; cutlery, plates, bowls, etc. Not forgetting 3 grills and 2 ovens!
Great place to enjoy the peacefullness of Connemara. A lot of space to enjoy gathering but also to be quiet in a bedroom.
Hi, We had great time during new year. It’s very spacious and Kathleen.was very helpful and was able to reach anytime. The shops are near. If you requested any big shopping centre the right place is clifden. which is 40min drive. Letterfack was 30min drive. I would like to visit again. Small feedback: hot water was not getting heat quickly which was bit annoying. Thanks Shiva
Checking in was so easy, very clean, excellent location, on the doorstep you have restaurants , shops and an amazing walk up diamond hill. highly recommend this apartment and the locality. Tip: washing line in in the courtyard around the back, not easy to find but a great addition especially as your so closes to amazing beaches
Amazing views from this property. Best place for some peace and quiet and the beautiful nature of Connemara. We want to come back here. Property as displayed, clean, comfy, home feeling.
Admittedly we were blessed with good September weather and few fellow visitors, so that the apartment allowed us to feel part of the wonderful setting. Even in the spells of poorer conditions, the views across the Lough were very relaxing. Conveniently situated for the hills, the loughs and the coast, it allowed us to feel we had done justice to Connemara in our short stay. The apartment itself was very comfortable and its management relaxed but efficient.
We stayed at cottage 421 for two nights and enjoyed it very much. The location is outstanding with spectacular views and is very peaceful. The cottage is really well equipped including an Egg for barbecuing(you need to bring your own charcoal) It was an extra bonus to be gifted fresh oysters and guidance on how to schuck an oyster from the guys at the farm next door.
The apartment was well located with a lovely view to Clifden harbour...bright, very comfortable and very well maintained. The quality of kitchen ware and appliances made it feel like home and not just a place to rent for a week. We intend to return...there is lots to do and see in Clifden.
We had a really great time with six days of bright wall to wall sunshine and warmth. The best weather I have had in Connemara in my forty five years of holidaying there every year. The bungalow is extremely well appointed in every way. The only negative was that the beds could have been a lot more comfortable. We were there when the campsite was not busy which was very pleasant indeed.
I felt at home the moment i entered the cottage. It was so well equipped. I have never seen sth like it. There was even an oil difuser :) thanks a lot for everything.
The house is perfect. What a pitty that it wasn’t clean... Owners very friendly. Wifi and tv were great but more important, kitchen missed some basic things.
This was a perfect place for us. Location second to none.We will use it again. The only drawback is that the washer dryer is small and for sheets and towels I used a outside laundry.
The cottage owners were very friendly and welcoming and were very responsive to any questions we had. The cottage is in a quiet area very handy for Clifden and whilst remote it’s just a 30 minute walk to Balynahinch Castle where there are walks, fishing, a good restaurant and bar. The cottage is spacious and well equipped with all the appliances you need. The bedrooms are all a good size with comfortable beds, quality linen and bath towels. It’s a great place to relax and explore and is ideally situated on the Connemara Greenway which links to the various Clifden Cycle Hubs. We’ll be bac...more
Perfect for families, perfect for Clifden and the surrounding area. Right across from the beach. The sand is a little painful but beautiful! Great place for swimming when the tide is in. Clear water and it gets deep quickly. Fine for paddling when the tide is out but a bit far out for swimming. Easy walk to the shops and pub. House lovely and cosy. Kitchen is a good size and bathrooms are fine. Porch is great for leaving shoes and drying clothes out.
Omey is an incredible holiday destination with its amazing scenery and peaceful surroundings. Love the fact there are no shops of any sort which means complete switch off from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. All in all just a heavenly place.
This is a lovely spacious cottage. Spotlessly clean and everything you need. Location is the real winner- nestled between the Twelve Pin and Mamturk mountain range it is an idyllic haven of peace and quiet with wonderful views. Fantastic walks from the door- Western way etc. Half hour drive to lovely beaches.
Great Location! Great Communication! Beautiful Country! Amazing Town! Fantastic Views! Check out MC McGraths for a drink and live music. Check out Griffins for a fantastic meal!
Ballyconneely is such a beautiful place for relaxation, rest & tranquility. The hospitality and people are so friendly and welcoming. Such a delight to see the ocean kiss the shoreline good morning.
Contained everything we needed. Right in the middle of things. Double room a bit small. But 2 single rooms are great
We had a lovely time in this cottage over 3 days. Located close to Clifden is a big plus as you can head off in various directions - Ballyconneelly, Roundstone, Cleggan, Leenane etc. We made good use of the tennis courts and Lidl and Aldi are on the same side of Clifden for groceries. The house is in great condition with central heating on the ground floor and electric heaters upstairs if needed. Although we were there off peak, we weren't charged for electricity or oil usage.
Excellent property. Perfect for our stay with 6 adults ad 2 kids. A swim on our doorstep every morning. A short walk to a beautiful beach. Even though we missed out on the heatwave that was covering the country it was still ideal for us. Planning on returning next year.
Apartment surpassed expectations… really clean, spacious and perfectly located. Curtesy calls to make sure we were happy. Would definitely recommend and revisit ourselves in the future.
I really enjoy staying at Clifden Glen, and this choice of cottages makes sense! The management is very responsive, addressing any concerns quickly. Their pet policy is awesome, and they are very nice about the unique requirements of visitors. I would highly recommend Love Connemara Cottages... and I look forward to my future stays!
We booked this the day before we travelled and the girls I dealt with could not have been nicer. Everything about this experience was excellent and we could not fault 1 thing 10/10. Would highly recommend this company.
Excellent location for a Connemara break away. The apartment was spotless and very well maintained. I will be recommending this location to friends and family.
We enjoyed a superb stay in this spacious cottage in the heart of Letterfrack. We had a warm welcome from David who met us to handover the key and show us around the house. It was a shame that the shower in one of the en-suite rooms was awaiting a spare part, but that couldn’t be helped. David was promptly on hand to assist us on the one occasion we had a small issue and couldn’t have been more helpful. The downstairs bedroom and cloakroom was useful for my parents with mobility issues. My party of ten were able to enjoy the time together here; there is sofa seating for seven in the lounge ...more
Nous sommes très heureux de notre séjour et recommandons cette location à de futurs voyageurs ! Hôte très sympathique
First impression was what a view! Once we had a look around the apartment we were very happy with the size and everything we needed was provided. Finding the car park was difficult but for future visitors turn right past O’Dowds up the hill and second right followed by first right (which looks like someone’s driveway!). The only other problem was the address.. there is no 245 as we found it is FLAT 2 Harbourview! Lauren the caretaker was really friendly and helpful and pointed us in the right direction and came to welcome us which was lovely. We had a wonderful stay and would happily book ...more
The location is fabulous. The apartment was warm and cosy and the welcome items were a lovely treat. We had everything we needed such as dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid so we didn’t have to go out to shop to find these. I would love to return in summer one year.
My husband, two daughters, and their children recently stayed at cottage 173 in Clifden. The weather was unkind so it was wonderful to be able to walk to the shops and supermarket and scurry back to the house when it became too inclement. The house was warm, the heater on a timer which we did not find necessary to adjust, and the rooms large and comfortable. We did not need a dryer but had we been spending more than a few days this might have been a problem considering the weather. The kitchen was well equipped except for the absence of a spatula (!) which is easily remedied. One note, it is d...more
The undoubted selling point of the cottage is the view over Loch Corrib, so much better again than the photos! It was absolutely stunning waking to such a vista and so relaxing. The area is very central for day trips to Galway, Westport and surrounds. The cottage has all mod cons and host was close by to assist, always very friendly. The only one minor downside was the comfort of the beds, however this did not detract from a fantastic holiday here. Highly recommended!
Pleasant stay, rooms are very spacious and facilities are excellent. Close to Clifton and close to lovely beach. Would recommend
We really enjoyed our winter stay at this property. Warm relaxing accommodation, well furnished with comfortable beds, truly a home from home. Good equipped kitchen but with such excellent and reasonably priced restaurants on the doorstep we had little cause to use it! A lovely view over the harbour to the rear of the property from the restful library, dining area and top bedroom. Decking terraces to enjoy in good weather I’m sure. This property offers a central base to enjoy the many beautiful scenic highlights of Connemara. A most enjoyable top end holiday let. Highly recommend Cottage 360.
2nd year in this house and 6th year staying in the area which we never tire of. If you want a slower pace of life, walking, swimming, great coffee shops and restaurants then there is no better place than Clifden and Cleggan for us. This house is generally very comfortable, has plenty of space and everything you need for a great holiday. Like all the houses we've stayed in here, the mattresses are in need of being replaced. Mattress toppers will not disguise an old one whose springs have gone and it's not good for the back! Also, the 2nd floor bedroom is huge with a great en-suite but only ...more
Great communication beforehand, easy arrival with the key safe. Parking outside worked well for being out in the day. Brilliant location for all the lovely restaurants and shops in Clifden. Very clean, well equipped accommodation. We would definitely return.
Great location, spectacular view. Clean and spacious. Would be helpful if there were some detergent, dish washer and garbage bags in the kitchen. Maybe a bit austerely decorated.
Beautiful place to relax for the weekend. Very helpful over the phone and I will definitely be booking another place to stay very shortly
Very nice appartment, good beds, nice decoration. Fully equipped kitchen, we cooked, baked and lived comfortably for 2 weeks as fully self-catered. Beatiful view from within the salon/open kitchen over the town, the iconic church tower in view. Perfect sunsets, over surrounding hills. Huge terrasse due to weather conditions not too useful, but very nice. Kitchen was not very clean though - we washed all dishes and glasses by ourself (easy with the dishwasher). Shopping by foot (good mall, butcher and bakery just around the corner). Highly recommended.
The cottage was fine however I do wish to complain about the lack of hospitality, there was no one there to meet us at the property, we could not find the keys we had been told that they were under the bins they were not we eventually found them under a full gas bottle. Also there were no instructions on the heating controls or anything else we had to work it all out for ourselves, during the week we saw no one to see if everything was all right. The biggest incident was the day before and the morning of our departure when we had text messages and calls stating in a quite an aggressive manner ...more
We've stayed here now 3 times. Great location and good size bedrooms and bathrooms. Lovely and clean too.
we passed a very good holydays in this very comfortable cottage, fully equiped and close to the city. We'll hope return next year . Thanks a lot.
Lage wie beschrieben hatten 2 tolle Wochen bei typisch irischen Wetter ruhige Wohnung Ausstattung mit allem was man braucht
The cottage provides lots of rooms and space for up to 6 people. What is more, the view of the bay is really stunning. Several beaches and activities are close by. The owner is happy to share advice on where to go and what to do. We'd love to come again to Renvyle.
Our cottage was spacious, bright, with wonderful sunset views from dining and living room. As it was cool summer weather the heating helped hugely making it nicely cosy as the wind swirled around us.
Very well located at Kylemore lake. Beautifull surroundings, beautifull Abbey, close to the sea. Very quite location, ideal for a family stay. Despite the midges ;-) really enjoyed being here.
This semi-detached house was a rather mixed bag. Plenty of space but in need of some TLC. Lounge smelt of moth balls. Kitchen equipment OK overall, but lacking in some areas such as bowls, cutlery (knives and teaspoons) and no coffee press. Not everyone likes capsule coffee which is no good for filling a coffee mug/flask. Bedrooms - I had no choice but to stay in the downstairs bedroom as other bedrooms were locked. Downstairs shower has an enormous crack through the rear wall and crawling insects in the base. Bathroom also had a large wall crack and ungrouted floor tiles. Also no window cover...more
This was our second stay at these apartments. The location is fantastic and the apartments have all you need and are extremely clean. Very easy arrival and leaving process.
Das Haus ist nah am Meer, aus dem Küchenfenster hat man einen tollen Ausblick. Leider nicht aus dem Esszimmer. Es gibt oben und unten Wohnräume und genug Platz für 6. Schlafzimmer sind sehr klein, man hat teilweise Mühe die Schränke zu öffnen. Leider funktionierte bei uns kein W-LAN und es gab auch keine Sitzmöbel draußen, wie in der Beschreibung angegeben. Ein Grill wäre auch sehr schön. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen mit Spaziergängen am Meer oder zu den Pferden, Eseln und Kühen rundherum.
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!
I enjoyed both the cottage and the location. The owner was very helpful with a couple of minor problems. The house is warm with conveniences that are (thankfully) easy to operate. The location, backing onto the Killary is beautiful. The road is busy but there is a great loop walk across the road from the cottage. It is safest to drive into Leenane. The restaurant service is friendly and the food is excellent.
Beautiful place nice home , small surprise in last day rest very good ! Recommended for family. Thanks
Super cottage ,fab scenery, every comfort available ,a real gem .we will be back again .seriously love connemara cottages
We are a family of eleven who stayed at this property for a week in early July. We were blessed with fabulous weather. We were met by the very friendly and helpful Bernie. We had a great stay. The house was very well equipped with everything we required. The bedrooms were comfortable and spacious with t.v in every room. There was probably too much furniture downstairs which made the house feel a bit cramped. There was plenty of parking out the back which was great as we had four cars, a boat and bicycles. There is a super bbq at the front with plenty of benches and chairs for outside dining. T...more
Lovely cottage in Connemara, located in a beautiful spot with amazing views on the bay from the windows. Very clean rooms and comfortable, large double bed. Perfectly equipped kitchen (we even found an air fryer). Very near to the lovely Roundstone with lots of restaurants and coffee shops. The cottage is a real pet friendly house and we loved to spend our time with our furry friend on the white beaches of Connemara. Irene was a perfect and prompt host.
Good location, comfortable living area, master bedroom needs a bigger bed, great service overall, loads to do in surrounding area
House was very well presented with a superb big garden fully walled in. The house was very comfortable and child friendly. Easy walk into oughterard and 30 mins drive from galway city and 45 from the national park so ideally located for all tastes. Proof in the pudding that we have reserved same house again next year.
We spend a good time in this apartment in Letterfrack, I have only two remarks: - the cleanings was not satisfying for our arrival, - the water-heating system is really too noisy.
Comfortable apartment. The building and external space were still in process of being finished, which we hadn’t expected, and the information on the property and surrounding areas still incomplete. The TV did not work which was disappointing. The location was very pretty but not safely walkable to any amenities. Good base for exploring Connemara.
The water heating system is completely obsolete and there is not enough warm water during the day The beds are in poor condition, and cause us sore backs. The couches are so old that they loose their skin on the floor.
