Great views and ambiance
Everything was perfect for us to enjoy the area and drive into clifden for restaurants and pubs for traditional Irish music. The road is a bit narrow towards the house the last bit but we did it slowly. We also enjoyed great meals at the nearby Connemara sands hotel just near the house.

Unbeatable views
This cottage is in a spectacular position looking out over the salt lough in Mannin Bay. We loved watching the seals, hares and all manner of birdlife from the picture window. A host of Caribbean-style beaches all around. The cottage is very stylish, well-equipped and comfortable. (Better pillows and sofa and a microwave would make it perfect!) Mélanie was charming and very helpful. We'll definitely be back.

Mannin Bay Cottage Ocean Front
In a beautiful location, modern cottage, fantastic views from large lounge window over the bay and seals basking on the rocks. However disappointed no direct access to the sea for my kayak. I like to dry washing outdoors, although tumble dryer provided cottage could benefit from outside drying facilities. Also didnt like the fact that both bathrooms had clear glass in the windows and no blinds. Also overall cleanliness was fine except for cob webs hanging and spider nests on the ceilings, dead blue bottles, flies and moths on window sills, top of tumble dryer thick layer dust and french doors covered in grubby hand marks. All not what I expect for the prices charged.

Perfect (once you've found it in the night)
It's the third house on the left, not the second! Directions were faulty, but the house itself was perfect: beautiful view of the bay, very tranquil, spacious, very well equipped, easily heatable and, to top it all, very tastefully furnished. We loved it!

Home away from home in Mannin Cottage in picturesque Ballyconneely
Our family just got back from our 4 night stay in this beautiful home on Mannin Rd in Ballyconneely. We saw seals, dolphins, donkeys, birds, beautiful beaches, amazing wild flowers and lots of fabulous scenery. We got to rest, and remove ourselves from the noise and distraction of the city and immersed into a place of relaxation which was so refreshing and renewing. It is a beautiful home away from home and all you need is right on your door step. We will definitely be back to stay!! Keoghs pub/restaurant is a lovely spot for a bite to eat and a few drinks with wonderful staff and is a short drive away. Clifden has amazing restaurants too, but this rental home allows you to eat in and cook something on the bbq if you wish. We all miss the view from that amazing window in the living room each morning! The best property my family has stayed at by far in Ireland x ☀️👌🥰 Thank you Catherine and Melanie 🌼

A Magic window
From the minute you walk into the house the window looking out over the bay has a Wow factor, I looked forward to getting up and opening the curtains in the morning to watch the seals swim across the bay, I found myself just drifting watching the colours change as the weather changed. Overall house has a lovely feel, great wildlife around with hares,donkeys, sheep, cows and of course ponies with the added surprise of a family of seals sunbathing as u look out the window. I don’t know what else to say. A long drive from us travelling from the Wicklow mountains to the 12 bens but worth it. Everything was in a short drive If there was not still some restrictions in place would of made life earlier but I can’t take away from the house for this reason. Would love to go back.

Beautiful house with super view
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It has everything you need plus an awesome view. We loved watching the seals every day right from the front yard. Melanie was very helpful and gave up great tips. She makes the world's best crepes. Will definitely come back again. Thanks!
