    Unique cottage in fabulous location

    The cottage is in a fantastic location with stunning views over sea and mountain. It is a former farmer’s cottage and retains much of its unique character and features. A memorable stay.

    Comfortable Peaceful

    The cottage was beautiful with stunning views from every window , being perfectly positioned near water & mountains one can't help but have a relaxing holiday. I absolutely loved the tranquility of the area. The winding approach is narrow so being a confident driver will help, for me it didn't matter as the destination was well worth it.

    We had a perfect time in this beautiful cottage on the most charming little island

    Everything about our three-night stay in the cottage was perfect. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable, it was an ideal place to explore Connemara and cozy up indoors during Storm Ashley. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay, and Maureen was incredibly helpful, available whenever we needed assistance. We’d love to come back

    Quiet away from it all

    If you want a quiet away from it all .Sean’s Cottage is the place……just the sound of the birds and lambs and nobody to bother you yet ten minutes drive into Roundstone for a good cup of coffee or delicious supper. Glorious beaches and clean sea within another five minutes what more could you need!

    Wonderful location, 360 view

    We had an excellent stay at Sean’s cottage. The location is perfect with breathtaking views in all directions. The house is clean and comfortable. And the area has a lot to offer, from walks in Connemara National park, boattrips to Inishbofin, dinner or drinks in Roundstone. We could have spent here much more days! Thanks a lot for your hospitality!

    Away from it all

    If you want an away from it all break Sean’s is a good choice although the track from the main road is a challenge the first time! Lots of Interesting from the previous owner Sean around the slightly quirky cottage. Good spot for touring the area. No light pollution making the night sky wonderful and for bird watchers bring binoculars as many migrating birds stay for a while locally.

    Vrai cottage très bien aménagé qui a gardé son authenticité. Le calme, le paysage (mer, lacs, montagnes). Maureen, la responsable du logement qui est toujours disponible pour renseigner et rendre service. C'était parfait.

    Beste Unterkunft ever

    Ein originales Cottage, das den alten Charme versprüht, liebevoll mit Antiquitäten eingerichtet ist und trotzdem eine moderne Ausstattung hat. Dazu die herrliche Lage mit hervorragender Sicht auf das Meer und die Landschaft. Was man einzig dafür in Kauf nehmen muss, ist die Anfahrt über schmale Straßen.

    A blissful experience in a stunning location

    We loved the cottage: it has all the comforts and the location is simply stunning. You can enjoy the absolute peace and tranquillity of an island while not missing out on the opportunity to explore Connemara. The cottage itself has a rustic, cozy feeling and offers beautiful views of the surrounding area. The kitchen is well equipped and the bathroom has been renovated recently and tastefully. There were two of us, plus a large dog, and we felt the size of the cottage was just ideal for a couple but could also fit 3 people easily:-). Customer service was excellent and the staff and caretaker were very helpful.
