Pristine and comfortable cottage in a jaw dropping setting backed by mountains and fronted by Lough Inagh with an excellent restaurant at Inagh Lodge just 15 minutes walking. Lots of hiking and not crowded. Wonderful stay. Well equipped for fixing meals as well.

Amazing spot at the foot of the mountain. The open plan area is bigger than expected and the drying room came in useful in the wild November weather.

Perfect Mountain Retreat
Beautifully located in front of the mountains, this cottage charmed us once again with its rustic appeal. It is well-equipped with fast WiFi, a washer and dryer, and a cozy fireplace. This is definitely the perfect place for anyone seeking peace and quiet, preferring to be awakened by the bleating of sheep rather than street noise. Communication with Dolores was warm and prompt. We would love to come back again.

Peaceful Countryside
From the very beginning, the interaction with the host was fantastic. Delores kept us informed and responded very quickly to any questions. The setting is magical! It was perfect for a base as we took daily excursions. There are great walks right from the property and easy access to many other activities.

Beautiful cottage
My husband and I went with this cottage because of its location. We wanted to be out in the country. We had such a relaxing week. It’s close to Clifton where we had great food and heard good Irish traditional music. Delores was very kind and accommodating. Thank you so much for a wonderful place to stay in. I will never forget my time in Connemara. ❤️

Thank you for your hospitality and kindness Dolores ! Everything went very well for us. The cottage is very cozy for 4 and was very well equipped and the fireplace makes all the difference. It is close to the "Diamond View" by car and to other hikes, beaches... For a 4-5 days stay, I highly recommend it ! Thanks again for everything :)

Lovely Cottage in Galway
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming cottage in Galway and I must say, it was one of the best vacation experiences I've had. The location was perfect - secluded enough to offer peace and quiet, yet still conveniently close to all the amenities of Galway city center. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated and felt warm and inviting from the moment I stepped inside. It was equipped with all the modern amenities one could need, including a fully-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and a cozy living room area with a fireplace. What really stood out to me was the attention to detail in the design and decor of the cottage. It had a rustic charm to it, with exposed beams and stone walls, but also had all the modern comforts one could want. The owner clearly put a lot of thought into the design and it really showed. The outside space was also lovely, with a patio area that was perfect. The views of the surrounding countryside were breathtaking and really added to the peaceful atmosphere. The owner was also very friendly and accommodating, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I truly felt at home in this lovely cottage and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable vacation in Galway. I cannot wait to return!

Excellente expérience
Excellent !! Gîte isolé dans un endroit somptueux au coeur du Connemara dans un paysage magnifique avec comme proches voisins des moutons en liberté. Un calme exceptionnel, une maison confortable et tout équipée, un très bon réseau wifi et pour le charme, une cheminée ouverte avec feu de tourbe. La propriétaire est très agréable et réactive. Nous y reviendrions avec beaucoup de plaisir
