Our family (2 adults and 2 children) felt very comfortable (especially the playroom). The location was ideal for touring and provided a quiet retreat for relaxation.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay in White Thorn House near Clifden. The landscape around the house is absolutely stunning and we could visit lots of fantastic places. The house is well equipped with everything we needed.
We could definitely consider coming back and staying in White Thorn House again. Therefore we can absolutely recommend it.

We recently spent a week in White Thorn and found it to be very clean and with a very well equipped kitchen. The owner was very responsive to anything we needed help with. It is a great house for families with plenty of space - I would definitely book again.

Whitethorn was a very comfortable and well equipped house. Martin was an excellent host and his house was spotless. Loads of space
Very happy with it and I would highly recommend it. Great location for cycling & walking and to explore Connemara. We will definitely return to Whithorn.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful house in the Clifden area. We were a group of 4 adults and 3 children and had plenty of space to relax and enjoy our break away. House has every amenity you could think of and was absolutely spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend Whitethorn House and would love to stay again.

We stayed for a week in this beautiful well Equipped house. It was very peaceful , close to Clifden and had everything we could need. The house itself I’ve very spacious and has all the normal household items a family could need.
The place was spotless with great consideration given to safety measures around cv19. WIFI reception was also very good. Both Connemara Lettings and the house owner were very helpful at every step.
We really enjoyed our stay visiting all the local beaches, lakes , sights. The local
Information brochures and information folder in the house were very useful.
We look forward to returning.

The White Thorn House was easy to find on the Bog Road outside Clifden. The accommodation was excellent and it was very good having two ensuite shower rooms ! Martin had kindly left a starting supply of milk,tea and shortbread -- thanks !! We didn't have any children with us but we were all parents and agreed that the upstairs room would have been brilliant to keep children happy. It was fun watching the cows wandering around outside and had the weather been better we would have enjoyed the patio with table and chairs . We would definitely visit the White Thorn House again.

Very happy with the week we spent at White Thorn. The house was very clean when we arrived, which was important for us, and it has great facilities - en suites, lovely kitchen, big TV, very spacious, games room for the kids. The only small issue was the DVD player upstairs was a bit hit and miss but in the big scheme of things, that was very minor.

The house itself was lovely - clean and comfortable. We had a huge issue with the letting agent, they said that this house had WIFI and this was necessary for us, and was discussed with letting agent that it was included and available. When we arrived there was no Wifi. A Wifi dongle was eventually provided but with the provisio that ' I will not be paying for you to download movies'. We needed general Wifi access and we couldn't even get that. The property owner actually said they have never had Wifi access yet the letting agent advertises the house with this service, even now!

We are delighted that you found Whitethorn house comfortable as indeed it is a beautiful holiday home. This holiday home provided wifi sometime ago however the signal was not sufficient for use. Connemara Lettings were notified on a Sunday evening that this home did not have wifi we sincerely apologised for this misunderstanding and within 2 hours we provided a wifi dongle along with €30 FREE credit and full instructions on how to top up the dongle. At this time it was explained that €30 is sufficent for surfing the net for the duration of the stay however we advised that it is expensive to streamline movies. Connemara Lettings responded to all phone calls and texts sent in a timely and professional manner. We hope you enjoy the rest of your summer. Thanks Yvonne
