Knights Cottage
I had an amazing stay at Maura’s place! From the moment I arrived, it truly felt like a home away from home. The space was beautifully maintained, clean, and cozy—everything you could want for a comfortable stay. Maura was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout, always making sure we had what we needed. Her thoughtful touches and hospitality really stood out. I can’t recommend this place enough and would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Maura, for a wonderful experience!

We really enjoyed our stay in Angela's. It was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for our family. It's a very quiet and peaceful location and Angela was very easy to deal with. I would definitely recommend.

The location is absolutely stunning- a real 'WOW' factor! Beautiful grounds with a stream running through it and the perfect Connemarra vibe. Elizabeth was a wonderful host- easy to communicate with, quick to respond and very friendly!

Restful retreat beside the lake
Sorcha and Roy's cottage was perfect for our stay to explore Connemara. We received a kind and warm welcome when we arrived at their home, and Sorcha was very helpful with all her instructions. The cottage itself was peaceful, clean, and quiet and we felt right at home. Not to mention, the beautiful surroundings. I only wished we could have stayed longer. We can't recommend this place enough!

Cosy Apartment/ Explore The Area/Enjoy our Pub
a lovely apartment with everything you might need. Slept very well with the firm matress and quality bedlinen. Good shower pressure and lots of towels in bathroom. The pizza downstairs in the bar was so good that we had it 2 nights in a row. Really friendly and helpful staff in the bar who gave us plenty of recommendations for the area. The pub was full each night but we didn't have any issues with sound or noise from below. Highly recommend staying here.

The Old Forge
Our stay with Regina was wonderful it's a great little get away; nice, peaceful, relaxing and great views all around. Regina was the perfect host greeting us at the door making us feel very welcomed, giving us tips on what to do in the local area and leaving us some of her signature scones to enjoy. I would highly recommend staying with Regina.

Altitude House Chalet
Mary took great care of us throughout the stay. Very precise description to get to the house. Basket of bread, jam and cakes and always ready to help us and anticipate our requests. The house is perfectly equipped. The huge shower and the views from the living room and the bedroom are splendid. Everything was perfect. we recommend it.

Tigh Noirin
We had the pleasure of spending a long weekend at Tigh Noirin, and it was an absolute delight. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and well cared for. We we surprised with freshly baked scones, cream, jam etc —a truly thoughtful touch that made our stay even more special. The accommodation was cozy, clean, and provided all the comforts of home. The peaceful surroundings offered a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, allowing me to relax and unwind fully. I highly recommend Tigh Noirin to anyone seeking a charming and restful getaway. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

Loon Lodge
We had a lovely stay at Loon Cottage with our son and his family. Lots of space for six people and an incredible view of the lake. We enjoyed visiting the quaint town of Cong as well as the Connemara. The beds are comfortable though it would be nice to have heavy curtains or shades on the bedroom windows. Excellent communication with the owner. We recommend staying at Loon Lodge without hesitation.

Cummer Cottage Joyce Country Escape
What a special addition to our Ireland adventure. Home was lovely, definitely the most modern interior we had come across, yet still maintaining that cottage feel. You might think, where in the heck are we going?!, when heading up the road to the cottage. For some drivers, you may be sincerely hoping no one comes from the opposite direction! BUT you are also enchanted by this space. A walk in the morning revealed even more of a bubbling stream and peaceful countryside. Oh and we can't forget our welcome committee, horns and funny teeth as well! Everything in the cottage seemed very new and it was cozy. If you are looking to stay away from it all and really get the experience of a country cottage, this is it. Not far from Cong and Ashford Castle. The rain and wind just added to the ambiance. Thankful for the joy this place brought to our Irish experience!

Ghillies Lair
Had such a lovely stay in this large, beautiful cottage! Great location, walking distance to the town centre, shannon river and all the local amenities. The cottage has lots of space- large bedrooms, two bathrooms with showers and a lovely kitchen/sitting room area, with everything you could want in them. The outdoor area was great too. The beds were really comfortable. Very easy to find and access, with a helpful video sent well in advance of the trip. Will definitely stay again in the future, highly recommend the cottage and the location.

Restful Connemara retreat in heart of the West.
A week of total bliss loved watching the stars through the sky light,would definitely go again,we fell on love with galway.

Annagh
This spot is amazing. So private and peaceful. The art is brilliant and the house is clean and has everything you could need. Mark very easy to deal with . Locals all friendly. Make sure you drive down to Picolla Sophia for dinner. If you can drag yourself away from this house and the view of the lough. I will 100% be back !!

Galway Period Coach House
We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodation was cozy and quiet. The property is beautiful and there were lovely grounds and woods to explore. John provided us with a fascinating tour of historic Lisdonagh House. They also gave us helpful recommendations for sites to visit in the area.

Joyce's Cottage
Lovely stonecottage on a very beautiful place. Everything was perfect, thabk you so much!

Roundstone Retreat
What a beautiful and magical place this is and what a privilege to be able to spend time here. Thank you Regina and John for sharing your lovely home (including the rowing boat and kayaks!). We loved being here watching the weather go by across the lake and the Bens, walking to the nearby beaches and driving to some of the stunning local highlights beyond. Thank you too for being so responsive and helpful 🙏🏼😊
