Great location, accommodation poor
This property is in need of updating, the kitchen was poorly equipped and ramshackle, and in need of a deep clean, wouldn't recommend the cottage.

Wonderful Spot
We had a great time at the Cottage. We arrived late, but Ann had a roaring wood burning fire and a bottle of wine waiting for us. There was soda bread and sliced bread in the bread box as well as butter, milk, coffee and tea. Beds and bedrooms were very comfortable. Kitchen had all the amenities for cooking in dinners. Views out over the coastline and a short drive to Clifden and Roundstone. For the brave hearty, there is a local swimming club that meets every morning across from the cottage for a Morning Dip in Mannin Bay. The group is very friendly and welcome newcomers.

Green Cottage
We called this house the Green cottage because the kitchen cabinets were green. The house was plenty warm and had excellent views. Our only complaints were 1) that the kitchen needed some work - drawers off kilter and not updated, range and oven looked rather tenuous 2) smoke detectors were off the wall and set behind the TV looking very old. 3) a carbon monoxide detector which looked very old started to make a low volume high pitched noise - not alarming, but probably that the batteries needed changing. I had to take one of the batteries out to make the noise stop. 3) There were pest deterrents in the outlets in the kitchen making us think we could have mice (although we did not see any) and there was a scent of bug spray in the sitting room. 4) overall the house could use some updating and decorating. It could be a very lovely place with some TLC.

Super stay near the beatyful beach
What a nice place in Connemara! Less than 3 Min. to the beautyful beach and around the cottage only horses and cows, sea view. Mary is a very nice, helpful person, there was a warm welcome with the fire burning in the stove, wine on the table and milk in the fridge. The cottage was very clean. Thank you for everything Mary! Gladly again!

House need to be thoroughly refurbished
Great area, a lot to see or experience. Very well located house less than 5 minutes from a small but nice coral strand, where we enjoyed watching sunset. Great views over the bay. House looked at bit like granny‘s old cottage was quickly transformed into a holiday home with some issues in its general condition and humidity (mould)
