The ideal place to relax facing the sea or to visit the Connemara of Galway or the Aran Islands (20 minutes from the departure port). The host is super welcoming. The nearby village has a superb beach and restaurants. The house is perfect for relaxing and totally suitable for families.

Excellent experience! The house is in a great location, far enough away from the road to be quiet, but just a few minutes from the main road for getting around easily. Amazing view of the sea! The house is bright, spacious, and furnished in a comfortable and charming way. It is very well equipped: there are even two clothes lines for laundry. The dining room is beautiful, with a view of the sea and a sofa where you can relax. The kitchen is well equipped, with a nice large fridge and a free pantry space where you can put your supplies. The cat Bobby, who lives outside, kept us company: we played with her and were able to feed her, with the permission of her owner. The host, Mairéad, was always kind and available to answer questions and help us when needed. It made us feel at home.

We stayed at this beautiful property for a long weekend, as a family of 6. The instructions made it easy to find the property and check in. We were greeted with some home made scones and jam by the host, which was a lovely touch. The property was extremely clean and had all the amenities needed to make our stay comfortable. I would definitely stay at this property again.
