Marina View

CathrionaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a lovely stay. The apartment is very well equipped with everything we needed. There is a lovely view onto the marina from the balcony and we really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area. It is in walking distance to restaurants and cafes along the river. Susanne was very helpful and let us know when the apartment was ready so we could check in. I will recommend this apartment to friends and family and hope to return soon.

Wild Atlantic Bus at Aishling Cottage

DanieleRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Fantastic weekend, truly unique stay! Our boys loved Richard's bus. They spent most of time alternating driving the bus :) It's larger than expected, very functional, it offers everything one would want and more. The location is great. Very peaceful and quiet, but just 5 mins from the nearby town, and easy driving distance from Connemara and all the beautiful local spots. Richard is a wonderful host. Very friendly, lots of tips for exploring the area. He also left us local butter and jam and homemade bread for break. Yum! Would definitely go back, and 100% recommend!

Restful retreat beside the lake

NellyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
What a peaceful and beautiful place to stay. We had the best time and if in this area (which is stunning in general) we will be back HERE. There was even coffee, I couldn’t wish for more (as I didn’t know what kind of machine I didn’t buy in advance) and water in the fridge, clear and super friendly communication, lovely hosts, the view!! You can only stay and enjoy this place!

Chalet Teach na hAirde

MichelleRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Great spot with awesome views and very peaceful. Mary supplied everything we needed and more, such a warm welcome after a long day travelling. The donkeys came and visited us in the morning which was a highlight. The house was spacious for us two and plenty of room for us. The driveway is located off the main road and I did have to double back to come in from a different angle but only because my car was quite wide for turning in. Once I had worked it out, it was fine. We loved the visit across to the Aran Islands and everyone is friendly. The weather was spectacular so we were very fortunate.

La maison est à quelques minutes de voiture de Clifden. Mary communique toutes les informations nécessaires pour le trouver. C’est un logement magnifique qui est situé en pleine nature. Un beau lac est à proximité et visible depuis la maison. Il est bien équipé et très spacieux. On peut faire facilement de la cuisine pour tous les repas. Les chambres sont spacieuses et dotées d’une salle de bain chacune. Mary a été très attentionnée à notre arrivée et durant le reste de notre séjour. Elles nous a donnés beaucoup d’informations utiles sur les commerces aux alentours. Nous recommandons ce logement parce qu’il a répondu à nos besoins (famille de 4 personnes) On recommande pour sa proximité de nombreux sites touristiques comme kylemore, le parc du Connemara ou la Skyroad. Pour finir, nous recommandons aussi pour la bonne entente avec notre hôte. Ce fut une bonne expérience qui donne envie de revenir. Merci

Joyce's Cottage

MaddiRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Beautiful location, not to hard to get to as it's on Google maps but some of the roads were scary to drive on to us. If you're from Ireland or used to driving on smaller rural mountain-ish roads then it would be probably be fine. Host was very friendly and clearly wanted us to have a good time. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was very nice and updated. Lovely little getaway into Connemara.
