We got lucky our first two nights in Ireland

The countryside was amazing, and so different from most of Ireland. The cottage was so well-cared for, and clean, and had everything we needed, including cooking utensils and equipment. It was very quiet there, and close to places we wanted to see. The scenery was amazing. The hostess was wonderful.

Une magnifique expérience

Le cottage est charmant et cosy. L’environnement est incroyable et est un vrai condensé de l’image qu’on se fait du Connemara ( lacs, montagnes, moutons, chevaux…). Dolorès est une personne accueillante, attentionnée et disponible. Un séjour qui donne envie de revenir et d’y rester plus longtemps !

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.

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.

Great location, large cottage

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.
