Fantastic Holiday House
Perfect for our stay. Each bedroom with an en-suite is a real bonus. House is spotlessly clean. Christa is on hand should we need anything.
Love the proximity to town. Our second stay and we’ll be back next year.
All good.

perfect holiday
Beautiful, very clean and cosy house in a very nice village.
Enough space for 7 ladies.
We loved that every room has its own bathroom.
Ideal place for exploring Connemara!
Pubs, restaurants and everything you need in walking distance.
Very nice host. Thanks for the scones!
House is in the perfect location, plenty of household things you need for cooking etc. Lovely owners with a gorgeous grandson who our boys enjoyed playing with. So much for the kids to do.
Fantastic stay in Fough East. 2 min walk to the downtown. Lots of great pubs and cute shops.
Home was spotless, well appointed and host was very welcoming.
Thanks so much for helping to make our family holiday so wonderful.
We had a wonderful time. Christa was great and so kind and helpful. The house was perfect for our group of 6. It was clean, cozy, and the bedrooms and bathrooms perfect. There was plenty of room and easily could fit a couple more. The location was perfect and there was a great space to park the rental van. Over all this is a fabulous house for groups. We loved the house and the area. Thank you Christa for the warm welcome and delicious cake.
Rental company messed up original booking, however, the host was extraordinary. She took it in stride and made sure we were taking care of. Extremely nice lady who guaranteed we had everything we needed. House was amazing. 100% recommended.
The property is lovely and close to village center. It’s a short distance to two bus stops, grocery, shops, and dinning. You can walk to Lough Corrib and there is a quaint river walk for some outdoor time. Due to the traffic, you would need to take the bus or car to the golf course or castle.
The host was very accommodating and even had fresh baked scones and cinnamon cake for our arrival!

Cousin’s Trip of 10 in the perfect comfy home
We were met with a lovely welcome! Including the most delicious scones and cake. We still dream about those scones. We had 10 adults, plenty of room, fully equipped kitchen and a quick walk to many pub, butcher shop and stores. The town folks were friendly and welcoming. Powers and Fahertys were our favorites for food and craic. We did a lot of day trips and we were always happy to get home to Fough East. We will definitely be back. Plenty of room to relax, each room allowed for privacy, plenty of room to park our cars, and short walk to Powers restaurant for great food!
