The cottage is in a perfect location for exploring this part of Connemara. The views across to Omey island are the perfect way to start the day over breakfast in the conservatory. All the communication and information was excellent - lots of ideas of things to do and even a phone number for the farmer who sells turf. We were delighted when the turf arrived and loved having a roaring fire in the evenings - we needed it as the cottage was quite cold. The conservatory nicely warmed up in the sun but the bedroom remained cold throughout our stay - we could have asked how to put the heating on but instead used the blankets we found in the wardrobe. Its not the most comfortable house - the living room furniture is very hard, as are the conservatory chairs so its not good if you want to read and relax. We wished we'd taken our own pillows... The kitchen was well equipped and clean and the shower was hot. The house was fairly clean but there was a build up of dust on, around, and under the furniture and doors. Great walks from the door to and around Omey island, we took the ferry to fantastic Inishbofin, drove on the Sky Road/ West Atlantic Way and swam at beautiful beaches when it wasn't too windy. Glad we stocked up on staples before we arrived. The shop had limited stock. It's a beautiful area for a holiday but we decided we'd prefer a bit more comfort in the seating and beds after long days walking. Great holiday but we might look for a different cottage another time. Would recommend for location and facilities but not if you're looking for relaxed comfort.

great location, nice amenities. could use some improvements - mirror in second room for instance. also a microwave.

We thoroughly enjoyed the cottage, found it to be very well stocked with everything you could possibly need!

On arrival at the property we discovered the agent was not expecting us so the house key was not there and after several phone calls we eventually got in when the house keeper arrived. The house had not been cleaned and no beds made up. The fridge was dirty and no loo paper or kitchen paper etc supplied. The agent did give us a refund in fairness but 1st impressions are so important. Also we had no TV or microwave available
