Lakeside house breathtaking silence Views 4 miles
Lovely house in beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Andrew was super helpful and very quick to respond to any questions. The house was so private and tranquil, really good space to get away from it all. Would highly recommend.

Marina View
We had a lovely stay. The apartment is very well equipped with everything we needed. There is a lovely view onto the marina from the balcony and we really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area. It is in walking distance to restaurants and cafes along the river. Susanne was very helpful and let us know when the apartment was ready so we could check in. I will recommend this apartment to friends and family and hope to return soon.

Wild Atlantic Bus at Aishling Cottage
Richard's bus is absolutely amazing, we had a brilliant time. It is so unique and peaceful :)

Designer Luxury in the Woods
What a lovely home, nestled far away to get some peace but close enough to great restaurants and attractions. A lovely space for a group or family to enjoy time in the Irish countryside. Appreciated the welcome pack and website with recommendations and instructions. Great communication with our host throughout our stay, which made this a delightful experience.

Finlough House, Delphi
Absolutely gorgeous house and grounds, like something from a postcard. Everything you could need was in the house. House is bright and spotlessly clean. Great location. Handy adventure centre in the hotel a five minute walk from the house. Margaret is a fantastic host who made sure we had a great trip. Thank you Margaret. The Mancunian girls will come again!

19th century restored Irish stable by the lake
We had a short stay in the very beautiful accommodation offered by Aidan and Ciara. The accommodation is well placed to discover the surroundings and we feel that Aidan and Ciara do everything to make your stay go smoothly. Thanks to them!

Glann House
Good place of stay away from the busy city life. Lovely place of entertainment and the kids and grownups enjoyed playing there. Enough rooms to stay and lots of en-suite. Good number of towels and toiletries with extra stock if needed. Loved the stay and there were delicious scones waiting for us in the kitchen which we enjoyed and thank you for everything.

Large house overlooking spectacular Lough Mask
Amazing location and property. We booked for a family reunion and Celebrate my nephews graduation. It is a perfect house for large families. All the rooms are clean and good proportioned. Location is absolutely stunning. Our host Una is great and always responded to our queries. She welcomed us personally and even had some food like bread, milk, sweets and other stuff for us. Thank you Una for having us and checking on us periodically when the weather was bad. Highly recommended and will visit again.

A beautiful location. Super friendly hosts, there on arrival, fire lit, bread and eggs as a welcome too, happy days! Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, no rush with checking out, couldn’t have felt more safe welcome. Thank you

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.

Beautiful view from inside the unit. A lot of care taken for the comfort of guests and small touches well appreciated. Perfect location to explore Galway and Connemara!

Carraroe apartment
A great place, local to all we required. Lovely clean beds, bathroom etc.

Harbour View Apartment
This accommodation was perfect. We were five adults attending a family wedding which took place at the Hotel which was next door to this accommodation. We even walked into the hotel in the morning and paid for breakfast. The accommodation was immaculate and I would highly recommend it.

CONNEMARA LAKE SIDE COTTAGE
Oh my goodness this place!!!! Absolutely stunning location, peaceful and private yet handy for a great choice of restaurants in Clifden. The cottage itself is just totally beautiful, spacious, clean, comfortable and the views are unreal. We’ve never spent so much time wanting to look out of windows!! The deer and the ponies were a bonus. Mary was great at communication. All in all my favourite Airbnb. Thank you so much for letting us experience this fabulous property in a magical area.

The landlords were always friendly, helpful and quick to reach. Fantastic setting directly at the lake. The furnishings are functional, the furnishings of the kitchen leave nothing to be desired. We felt right at home. I highly recommend it!
