This house is ideally located for touring Achill Island and Connemara. The views from the house are truly spectacular. Parking is easy and plentiful. Inside the house is very comfortable and cosy and very well supplied with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. It is an easy stroll to the village which has 2 good pubs for food plus a hotel and other facilities. Jim and Catherine were unobtrusive hosts but very friendly and helpful when needed. A five star experience all round!
We loved our stay. The cottage was large and had everything we needed. The location was very relaxing. We loved seeing the donkeys in the paddock. The housekeeper was lovely and very helpful. We would highly recommend.
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!
The home was very comfortable and easy access to Westport and surrounding areas of interest. Close to downtown Westport Pubs and Restaurants. Great views, Recommended !!
My large family group- children, their spouses, my grandchildren spent a most enjoyable week at Omey view. On arriving at the House, we were pleasantly surprised by its spaciousness as well as the scenic views. Everything we could possibly need was provided and beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed daily swims in nearby beaches, crossing and picnicking on Omey island, a visit to Kylemore Abbey, walking in Connemara park etc. Great memories were made. Thank you Patti and David.
Very comfortable house, well equipped and well situated for walking. Nearby lakes for fishing and beach 200m away.
We had such a gorgeous week staying at Honeysuckle Cottage. The cottage was very comfortable for us and was equipped with everything we needed. The best part was the location, within a 5 min walk to a lovely little pier, very safe for swimming and an outdoor sauna, such a lovely treat! Also in walking distance of shops and two pubs for food and drinks. Noreen was such a helpful host. Highly recommend staying here ☺️
This place is a steal. Hosts are wonderful and accommodating (they live right around back). They were very gracious, and the cottage is large, views are incredible, and the place is very clean. It’s in an excellent location to explore northern Connemara, and it’s walkable to some incredible beaches. Try Paddy Coyne’s gastropub in nearby village of Tully Cross—some of the best food we had in Connemara.
The Bothy is in a great location to explore the local area and wider Connemara region. Spotlessly clean, comfortable and well-equipped, the accommodation is ideal for two people. Overlooking Cleggan Bay, the accommodation is within easy walking distance of the local supermarket, pubs and restaurants in the village centre of Cleggan, and only a 15 minute drive to the wider range of amenities available in Clifden.
We stayed a week in this holiday home and we are very satisfied about the high standaard. We have been coming to Ireland for 40 years and have often booked selfcatering accomodation, but not always so nice and clean as this place. Klazien and Peter Gediking From The Netherlands
Great house with every possible convenience. Spotless cozy in a really great spot 10 mins from Westport quiet and just a lovely home. Restored my faith in Irish hospitality a wonderful stay with friends. I would highly recommend this home.
Amazing location stunning house we all loved the garden area to sit out enjoying nature at its best.
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.
House met all our needs, comfortable and well equipped throughout. Ideal location for numerous activities.
Beautiful spacious home with stunning views. Spotlessly clean. The views are amazing! Has everything you need
The cottage and facillities were perfect, we stayed as a family of four, children aged 10 and 13. We loved the hot tub, sauna and cold plunge. Gerry was the perfect host, the eggs and chickens were great. We were even fortunate enough to watch him tend to his bees. There is loads to do within a short drive from the location and the countryside itself is stunning. Cant wait to go again!
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
The house was great and the location super. The views from the yard of Clew Bay and Croagh Patrick are amazing. Lots of day trips and walks within the area and Staunton’s pub just down the road is a gem! The house had everything we needed for a three week stay. It was a very comfortable home with plenty of room for the eight of us with a large dining table to seat us all. It was a great find and very happy we booked this rental.
Would absolutely recommend this beautiful property, its in a great location for exploring Connemara. The house itself has everything you could need, we loved staying here with our two dogs. It was a very peaceful holiday!
We had an excellent stay in this apartment. It is bright, tastefully decorated, and incredibly well equipped, from the bedrooms and kitchen to the bathroom and even the TV. We were even able to connect our laptop to the TV for an online meeting. The apartment is ideally located, very quiet, and offers stunning views. Marie gave us a very warm welcome and had thoughtfully prepared a few treats for our arrival. She is a truly wonderful host—always smiling, friendly, and happy to offer helpful recommendations. We wholeheartedly recommend this apartment, the host, and the agency. 100%! Ever...more
An apartment at the back of the house, with view on the lovely garden and mountain. The beaches are nearby and there are a lot of beautifull places in the area. Marie has lots of tips and welcomed us with freshly made scones. The only noise was from the plumping. The beds are good. The kitchen is well equiped.
Absolutely loved our time at The Stone House. The location was perfect. It was comfortable, clean and relaxing. Thank you
This was a lovely introduction to this beautiful coastline The owner was very helpful and we learnt a lot about the history of the area Such a peaceful, quiet spot
We have used this property for guys working in the area for a number of weeks. Excellent property in a beautiful location.
A wonderful location for exploring the beautiful coast and local mountains. Superb views of the sea from the property.
Fabulous stay, again. What a great spot, in a special area. Beaches, mountains, translucent seas. Amazing
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.
We loved our stay at this beautiful cottage in the countryside. The views around us were spectacular, and it was a short drive to the town of Clifden. This town is not only quaint and adorable, with great restaurants and stores, but also the home of really good local Irish music. We treated ourselves to the Connemara Seaweed Bath & Thermal suites in Clifden, and it was a treat - highly recommended! It's within a one-and-a-half-hour drive to many historic places on the West Coast, a rental car would be a must for this area if you want to see all the nooks and crannies of Western Ireland. The ho...more
Just love the off the beaten track cottage.Sall single lane track no street lights total isolation. Magnificent views Well prepared cottage warm and comfy. Maureen a great host always available if needed . Booking so easy to do and Love connemara cottages staff are so professional and helpful it makes the holiday a pleasure. Highly recommend it .
Great location and (most) basics covered well. The only thing missing was a microwave, which we hope the owners will be able to fix. A nice surprise was the good wifi, which wasn't clear upfront (not listed on Booking.com). Some of the interior is a bit tired (e.g. sofa and carpets upstairs) and could do with a refresh, but still ok. The owners are very friendly and supportive without being intrusive or overbearing. We cooked a fair bit ourselves and it was another nice surprise that electricity wasn't an extra cost in the end. All in all excellent value for money - we definitely recommend 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.
Beautiful home, brilliant location. Very quiet place and lots of privacy. The home is equipped with everything needed for your stay. Connemara highlights are close by, so it was the ideal location for our stay!
We had a very pleasant stay. Nice walks in Derryclare Nature Reserve and in the neighbourhood of Ballinahinsh Castle
The place is very nice and the location is great - highly recommended. -----------------------------
Absolute heaven! We will be back! The kitchen is fully equipped and there are plenty of towels & bed linen. A separate laundry room with washing machine dryer combo. Dishwasher and freezer in the kitchen. Cottage is larger that we thought and photos dont do it justice. Very clean. The sitting room is lovely with high ceiling, and stove fire. Very clean and modern shower room. There is a second smaller bathroom with a bath. No wifi but mobile phone data worked perfectly. Location is stunning, feels like you are on an island. Great base for drives. Nearest town for grocery shopping is Clifden wi...more
We enjoyed staying in the cottage, located in a beautiful place close to mountains and the sea. The old cottage was enlarged with a kitchen and a serre from which you overlook the sea. It is a great basis for walks and for visiting places in Connemara . Although we didn't receive the code for the key box, it was fixed soon. Communication with the host was good.
This was our second stay at the cottage. The location is amazing, seeing the sea from the front door. It is a lovely country cottage, simple and clean. It’s perfect for a break and to unwind. Not a lot of phone signal or WiFi so good for switching off. Helpful and friendly owner on hand if needed. Turf and logs ready for us on arrival and spotlessly clean as before. Would recommend
We really enjoyed our stay in this authentic irish cottage! There are a lot of things to do in the surrounding.
We had a wonderful week at the cottage, there power was off for a day due to work being done but the owners daughter was very helpful finding out why it was off and all was ok as we were out all day anyway. Couldn’t of had a better week.
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.
Our stay was good. The hosts are available on request, but I feel they could have been more readily available. The cottage owner called from Germany to see how we were getting on. A lovely man. There were a few issues, but nothing serious. We would definitely stay there again knowing now how to work the oil heat registers. However we would definitely dust and wipe things down to remove the numerous spiders and webs
We arrived in the dark and cold, and the key wasn't in the key box. We had to contact the homeowner, and luckily she was able to tell us where we could hide a second key. It was very cold in the house when we arrived, and we couldn't get it warm all week because the doors and windows were drafty. The living area is also open to the sky, so the heat from the two radiators escapes upwards. Some of the dishes and pots weren't clean from the previous guests. There were several dead insects (woodlice and flies) on the floor and shelves, and some woodlice were even in the bathroom. This ...more
