Super house in a very scenic location.
We loved our stay in this excellent house in Moyard. The views from the upstairs living area are fantastic and the space worked perfectly for our family group of 8 adults and 2 small children. The kitchen was well equipped. There is a choice of excellent nearby beaches. We would gladly rent this property again!

Modern Getaway
This hidden gem was a surprise at the end of a winding farm road. The views were spectacular and the home was magnificent. One of the most modern places we have ever stayed in. Loved it, especially the views of the cattle and sheep. We would stay again.

What a view
Splendid modern home a short walk away from the cliffs of Cleggan. The view is absolutely stunning. I booked based on the pictures and reality did not disappoint. Plenty of room for everybody as every sleeping room has its own bathroom. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Beautiful and amazing!
This property is absolutely incredible! I had my son, sister and niece on this vacation. This house was perfect for us because all the bedrooms are on the first floor (didn't have to carry the luggage upstairs LOL) and each bedroom had it's own bathroom. When I am back in the area, I hope to stay at this property again! Thank you to Bea for taking such good care of us!

The most amazing views!
Unfortunately the week we’re visiting was week of a storm but the house was incredibly warm and comfortable. The views from the house are breathtaking! House is very spacious and and comfortable. Lovely places to visit nearby (15/30 min drive), Omney Island is fantastic (check tide times before going). The final 5 min drive to house is up a steep single track with blind bends, not for faint hearted drivers. Truly wonderful property.

Dream House
The House is amazing. The views are unique and the beds are very comfy. We enjoyed the superb balcony a lot. A bit of tear and wear here and there but just minor things i.e. the frying pans need replacing and the wifi router. Bea was always extremly helpful and quick to respond. We will be back.

Summer 2022 - Moyard Connemara
The location was ideal - a little off the main roads but within easy reach ,through idyllic countryside ,of the local towns. Once there it was a few minutes walk to the beach or Cliff walk . The house was perfect - with 270 degree views of the Atlantic it felt like being on a ship when on the balcony.The house itself clean, fully equipped , spacious and ideal for entertaining our family. So impressed we booked it again for Summer 2023.

A Perfect Location to Relax
The house, location and visible beauty is outstanding. We spent 3 weeks welcoming friends and family to this wonderful home. The best parts are the views, the wonderful kitchen and ample space for all of your guests. We awoke one morning with two cows on our driveway and another a sheep. The location is right between the National Park and Clifden with a lot to see within an hour’s drive. Highly recommend. I gave 4 for condition because the grill and some furniture needs a little TLC

Fantastic property for a family get-together across 4 generations!
The best thing about this property was the spectacular, secluded setting, with panoramic views and amazing sunsets. The house was huge and made it very easy to accommodate 7 adults and a toddler. All bedrooms were en-suite and on the ground floor, allowing the whole of the open-plan upper area for cooking, entertaining and hanging out together. There were balconies at the front and back, so there was always somewhere to sit, that was out of the wind. There were a couple of camping chairs to use outside, but it would have been lovely to have had some patio furniture. The kitchen was well equipped, but would have benefitted from a double oven for a group as large as ours! There was plenty of room to store our two kayaks, which we launched from the nearby beach and had great fun exploring the many sea caves along the coast.

Tranquillity
If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway you couldn’t do much better. The scenery from all windows was picturesque (stunning). My only complaint/recommendation to the owners - we arrived quite late and it would have bern more welcoming to have had the heating on as it was extremely cold and took a while to heat the house

Modern gem in the wilds of Connemara
Beautiful house located near the village of Cleggan. Brilliant for 2 families with older kids. Loads of space with a lovely little beach just a short walk away. But the reason to stay here are the views. They are breathtaking from almost every window. The large balcony provides outstanding vistas all day long. My only ask for next year (we'll be back) is that some outdoor furniture by supplied?

location & improvements
The property is set in a wonderful location with easy access to a beach along with country walks. Local villages aren't too far away and there is plenty to do in the area. The house itself is well equipped with kitchen utensils but a weighing scales for cooking would be useful. Windows need to be cleaned and a bedroom window has a draft coming through it. All in all it is a wonderful place to escape for peace and quite and a beautiful looking house with plenty of space to enjoy. Would definitely be going back.

Spectacular views over the bay
We staying in this property for one week with one other family. The house was immaculate, spacious with a well equipped kitchen. Views from the wrap around balcony are truly spectacular. There is a beach 2 mins drive away and we went swimming each day. Huge bedrooms, very comfy beds and a wood burning stove for cosy evenings in. Cleggan is a short drive (about 7 mins) with lovely pubs for lunch or dinner. Only two small things were bug bears, there were no spare towels so we had to wash and try and dry towels in the same day, and there is farmer-owned land either side of the house so if you are bringing a dog you won't be able to let them off the lead at all. But to be honest the beach was a better place to exercise them in any case. Highly recommend this property.

Excellent all around
This is a beautiful, clean, and thoroughly modern house in Connemara that features some of the best views we’ve seen in all of Ireland. The views from the kitchen and family rooms are stunning. This is the centerpiece of the house, and the house’s design and positioning are perfect for it. The house is well-appointed, and everything worked for us, including wifi which we used across multiple devices. The house is set up to accommodate large groups – we had 7 and it fit us all quite comfortably. Finally, there are some really nice walks available from the house, down some farm roads, to really beautiful sea cliffs. Highly recommended!
