Thank you so much for your lovely words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay in our little slice of heaven here in Connemara. It means a lot to know the house stood out among the many you’ve stayed in.
We’re so pleased Feichin made you feel welcome and that the chocs and wine added a special touch to your arrival. The views over Maumeen Lake and the Twelve Bens truly are something magical and how lucky to catch the starling murmurations at both dawn and dusk!
We hope your memories here stay with you for a long time, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back whenever you’re ready for another Connemara escape.
Warm regards,
Samantha
