Great accommodation and location for exploring Connemara.
Diamond Cottage was the perfect home for our family of 12 to explore and make memories. The house is spacious, open, bright, has beautiful views and a short walk to the beach. The kitchen was easy to use and had enough room for us to have meals together. We loved our stay!
