About this property
West Haven - A Coastal Retreat in the Heart of Roundstone
Nestled on the historic site of an old monastery, West Haven is one of a select few homes perfectly positioned beside Roundstone’s charming old harbour. Just a short stroll from the village, you’ll find an array of renowned restaurants, traditional pubs, and local shops, making this an ideal base for your Connemara getaway.
One of West Haven’s most enchanting features is its proximity to the sea—fall asleep to the soothing sound of waves lapping against the shore, a true luxury for those seeking coastal tranquillity.
For outdoor enthusiasts, secluded swimming spots are just a short walk away, while the breathtaking beaches of Gurteen and Dog’s Bay are easily accessible. The old harbour provides the perfect launch point for boats and kayaks, allowing you to explore the stunning coastline from the water.
If you dream of a coastal escape filled with salty sea air, sandy toes, and unforgettable sunsets, you have found the perfect home.
