Dolphin Beach House is uniquely located on Sky Road just outside the beautiful town of Clifden with the Atlantic Ocean at the bottom of the garden. Originally a Connemara homestead dating from the early 19th century, Dolphin Beach House has been extensively refurbished into a modern coastal home. Each of the six bedrooms has an exceptional view with all being finished to exacting standards, with high ceilings, wooden floors, modern bathrooms and underfloor heating. There are 14 acres of natural landscape surrounding the house and a small sandy cove a short walk through the gardens. Connemara quartz hills flank the back of the house and the Atlantic opens out in the front. Clifden town, bustling with pubs and restaurants is just 10 minutes drive away on a typically Irish narrow road but there is an excellent taxi service available for night owls. The surrounding Connemara landscape is unparalleled in beauty with stunning white sandy beaches and vast empty landscapes of mountain and ocean.Accommodation:-Bay view room: 1 king / 2 guestsCove room: King or twin / 2 guestsCrooked room: King or twin / 2 guestsGarden Room: King or twin / 2 guestsGreen Room: Queen or Twin / 2 guestsPeacock Room: Queen or twin / 2 guestsAmenities:-Barbecue AreaDishwasherMicrowaveLaundry roomFree WIFIAll-inclusiveCheck-in time is from 4 pmCheck-out time is from 10 amUtilities are charged at €25 per nightTerms & rules: No smoking or parties allowed
