2 bedrooms – sleeps 4. A ground floor apartment overlooking Roundstone harbour. Ideal for friends and couples to share. Pets welcome. Wi-Fi. Off street parking available.

Absolutely perfect for 2 couples away for the weekend

We were delighted with our weekend Paddy's Day weekend in Roundstone in Apt 235.

Lauren, who was looking after the handover of the apartment, was a dream to deal with. Super friendly over the phone and very accommodating. She made sure there was no feather/ down in the bedding which was much appreciated as I knew allergies weren't going to wreck the weekend. Our friend's small dog was allowed to stay with us too.

The apartment was really warm and comfortable, which was very much appreciated when it was cold and rainy outside. The broadband was good and we enjoyed a night or two in watching movies on the massive.

The fireplace also meant it was homely.

We had a great view of the sea and mountains from the kitchen so we really enjoyed cooking and eating in too.

The apartment couldn't be better located really.
It's only paces away from O'Dowds café and the Coffee Cottage for breakfast and O'Dowds pub for lunch/dinner/ drinks. Great pub to sit outside on the wall and enjoy the view of the sea and mountains in the evening. You are smack bang in the middle of Roundstone village, so if you are prepared to go to the trouble of crossing the small village road, you have your choice of the other pubs and cafés, local shops etc.

The shower was powerful with plenty of hot water for the four of us.

There is a great coffee machine there, but it requires beans and a bit of figuring out, and you're never sure how long the water has been sitting in it or if it needs descaling. I'd suggest the owners buy a large size cafeteire / French press so that group can make coffee simply with ground coffee they buy in the local shops.

In fairness, there's also a filter coffee machine that takes fine ground coffee, we just didn't have the right coffee grind.

All round, absolutely ideal place for two couples.

Overall this apartment met all our needs, and the dog loved it. Bathroom could use an upgrade and could have been cleaner.

Fabulous location and great host. Lovely cottage which was well equipped. Easy parking on road outside cottage but we were there low season. Great pub and coffee shop next door. All in all a great trip and would not hesitate to return.

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 again.

Dear Guest Thank you for your lovely review and feedback. It is on street parking in the village and the car park is separate to the apartment. We do provide written directions, GPS coordinates and eircodes for all properties prior to arrival date and ask that contact is made 48 hours in advance of arrival to ensure there are no issues with arrival. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay and we hope you will return in the future

We were a group of four visiting for 5 nights over New Years. We have family in Roundstone so know the area well. The apartment was perfect for us and had everything we needed, including a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. The open fire was a lovely bonus. It was easy to contact the caretaker to arrange key pick up - she left in under the mat and we did the same when we left. The location was great, Roundstone is small so you are never far from anywhere but the sea view was lovely (even from behind the scaffolding). The only criticism would be that the 'double' bed in the second bedroom was very small, not ideal for a couple. Other than that it was the perfect place to spend a few days, would definitely return!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet appartement bien équipé,spacieux et confortable. Il est idéalement situé à quelques mètres seulement du cœur de Roundstone et du O'Dowds pub.
Les fenêtres donnent sur le port et une deuxième entrée offre un accès à un parking situé derrière l'immeuble.
La literie est confortable.

We had an Amazing time at our accommodation in Roundstone. We stayed the June Bank Holiday weekend, we were booked at another location, which unfortunately was not to our standard and we were so lucky to find Terry.s office in Clifden. We explained our plight to Terry, explaining that we also had 2 dogs with us so we needed a pet-friendly accommodation. Within an hour Terry had sorted an Amazing residence in Roundstone, close to pubs shops and pet-friendly! Our host Maggie met us and couldn't have been nicer. Everything and more was included in the apartment, and the cleanliness was five-star quality. We had an amazing time and the location was perfect. We cant express our gratitude enough to Terry, he saved the weekend for us all! My partner nd I will definitely return and would urge anyone who is thinking of holidaying in the area to contact Love Connemara. AMAZING!!!

A few if us stayed here for new years, really nice apartment with everything you could need, located in the town with pubs shops and restaurants within a 2 minute walk.
Just what we were after for new years something different, quiet and we got the weather too!
