About this apartment rental
Set lightly among the trees, the Stilt House is Fernwood’s most distinctive stay, an architectural retreat designed to immerse you in nature. Elevated on slender stilts above the woodland floor, its sweeping elliptical form creates a sense of calm from the moment you arrive.
Inside, forest-green pine interiors and floor-to-ceiling glazing blur the line between indoors and out. Light shifts throughout the day, revealing new views at every turn, while the curved layout invites you to slow down and take it all in.
Spend your time wandering woodland paths, or unwind beneath the canopy in your private wood-fired Swedish hot tub, tucked quietly into the landscape.
Despite its secluded setting, comfort is at the core. The king-size bed features the same premium mattress used in the The Merrion Hotel, with carefully selected furniture from local makers and Scandinavian design houses. A Bang & Olufsen speaker lets you set the tone, indoors or out.
The kitchenette includes an induction hob, combi microwave and fridge, with tea, coffee and breakfast essentials provided.
The spacious bathroom features a rain shower and a large window overlooking the woodland.
A-rated and thoughtfully designed, the Stilt House brings together comfort, design and nature in a truly unique way.
Save up to 20% booking directly on Fernwood.eco.
At end of a country road and at the beginning of the Connemara Greenway, Fernwood is a true oasis with the benefit of being 2 minutes from Clifden town.
Our organic farm is on a 140 acre private estate comprising of native woodland and bog, on the shores of the Salt Lake.
Walk out your front door to explore, in complete solitude, our 2km of woodland paths, the wonders of the Connemara bogland or relax in our newly constructed lakeside sauna house with plunge pool.
You can chose to stay in our new refurbished Bothy conversion which is finished to the highest spec with underfloor heating, wood burning stove, sheepskin rugs and feather down duvets
For the ultimate experience chose our luxury treehouse dome/tent or better again a Stilt House Suite with private wood-fired Swedish Hot Tub.

The accomodations were luxurious and totally secluded. The sauna with the view out to the lake is spectacular. You feel like you ate out there in nature by yourself.

We had a wonderful stay at Fernwood farm. Everything was calm and welcoming and thoughtfully put together. The stilt house is so unique and beautifully designed where you are submerged in nature. It makes you feel you are the only two people in the world. The bird song in the morning was my favourite moment. The sauna was a real highlight with the out door plunge pool. We were lucky enough to attend the Gather event while there which was fantastic. Already planning a trip back. x

We loved every second. The only thing we would change is that we would love to have stayed for longer. We really switched off, relaxed and just enjoyed the beauty of everything around us.
I was a bit apprehensive of the sauna and cold plunge but after one go I was hooked and we immediately booked again for the second night. Feeling like you are secluded while still being so close to a bustling town is a feat in itself. Fernwood has to be experienced by everyone and we can't wait to return

The stilt house is beautiful and you feel immersed in nature. The grounds are lovely, including the rope bridge. We loved the lakeside sauna and plunge pool.
