Superb Accommodation

The apartment was clean and very well maintained. It was great to have three floors which contributed to privacy. The rooms were in great condition. Plumbing and heating was excellent. The kitchen is excellent and well suited for cooking meals. It’s a great location for access to town.

Great location

Great location, five minute walk into centre of Clifden which is a great town with nice shops and good quality bars and restaurants. It let itself down slightly on cleanliness in that the blinds in the living area were a bit sticky to the touch and the top of the cooker hood was covered with grease. On the whole I would recommend it.

A lovely place

Lovely place, with a very nice layout, in a great location. Two small issues. Firstly downstairs initially smelt of dampness. This was sorted by putting on the heating and opening some windows. Secondly the amount and quality of the dishes and glasses etc wasn't great. For what we paid this shouldn't happen. Other than that we would happily go there again.

Spotlessly clean, great location.

The house was spotless, which was very re-assuring during Covid. Great location, very close to the town centre but it still felt very peaceful and quiet. With greenery all around we felt like we were in the country but it was only a 2 minute walk to the main street. Could have done with more pots etc in the kitchen as we ended up cooking in more than we normally would, but otherwise it was perfect.

Perfect location in every way

Clifden is an ideal base from which to visit Connemara. Four of us spent a week there in Sept 2020 and the house was ideal for holidaying during COVID times. It was roomy and clean and our host (Mary) could not have been more helpful. There was a welcome pack with tea, coffee and milk which is always appreciate. We've given the house ***** and will recommend it to friends.

Great place for a family to stay in Connemara

Great house with convenient parking. Lovely people. A great master suite and two more double bedrooms, plus a single bedroom. Well-appointed open plan kitchen, dining living room. Very convenient for the centre of Clifden and the rest of Connemara beyond.

Lovely visit to Clifden

We stayed in # 17 for a family reunion in Clifden. Mary looked after us and was very helpful whenever we needed anything. The house is very close to the town. I would recommend it.

Excellent location, at the edge of the town of Clifden. The house is split over 3 floors with a nice open plan day area. It is clean and tidy and has all the basic amenities including a washing machine and dryer which is great for families. The caretaker was most helpful. The house is situated in a superb location for exploring Connemara which is a beautiful part of Ireland - some stunningly beautiful mountain ranges, beaches, inlets and small villages. The house is close (by car) to Kylemore Abbey, Connemara National park, Spiddal/Bearna area, and the islands. Clifden town itself has some lovely restaurants, shops and pubs. Would definitely recommend this property to others: for a family or small group. Areas for improvement - internet access and slight smell of damp in wardrobes.

Stress free!

The Suir Womyns Group from Tipperary descended here for the last weekend of the Arts Festival. The location was perfect, the house is brilliant for comfort, cleanliness and convenient for town. Couldn't fault it, we all had a great time and Mary couldn't have been more lovely. Thank you, see you next year!

Spacious comfortable unbeatable location

Lovely property. Very modern and comfortable. Plenty of beds and bathrooms. Handy for everything. Literally the main street is 4 mins walk. Host is a lovely woman and very helpful. My only word of caution is that there is no wi fi. This did not bother me at all but my 3 kids were very frustrated especially if it's a wet day. So overall a top property but if your kids are of the age were wi fi is important be warned. (Or just don't bring them!)

Beautiful self catering house in Clifden.

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely house. It is only a short walk to the town centre where there are great places to eat . Great pubs and shops too. Great base to tour Connemara.

Great Location

We rented No 17 as it was close to everything, you could walk to Clifden in 5 mins and had access to lots of wonderful things to do in the area, from cycling, golf, climbing the Diamond, to visiting Inisbofin. We had a great holiday...even had good weather...
