Beautiful, quiet location, great views, very comfortable house.
We came to escape the heat of the Mediterranean and were not disappointed. The property is large, comfortable and quiet, with great views of the lake, hills, sheep, cattle and even two donkeys. We plan to come again.

This home was lovely, clean and in a beautiful setting.
Our hostess was very accommodating and friendly. We would highly recommend this location to anyone! Nearby Clifden was a fun town to visit and the Connemara area is beautiful!
