We had a lovely stay and the days were clear and bright showing off the location as we were surrounded by lough Corrib. The open fire was delightful. The well equipped kitchen easily accommodated our Christmas day meal. The design of the house is excellent and accommodates all real needs with a variety of spaces.

Wonderful stay by the lake

This stay and area were the highlight of our trip. We loved everything about the cottage and location. Breathtakingly beautiful and right near the lovey town with everything you need to include world class coffee, and multiple outstanding pubs. Clancys is an absolute must as is Powers Thatch.

Lovely New Year Retreat

After a whirlwind tour of Dublin and Cork we found a refreshing change of pace at this bungalow outside of Oughterard to ring in the New Year. There was plenty of room for the five of us and it made a great landing spot for day trips to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway.

Absolutely beautiful views of lakes and mountains!! Even got to see a sunset one evening!!! Beds are very comfortable and house is very quirky (in a good way) with old timey furniture and appliances (all work fine). Well stocked kitchen. Short drive into Oughterard (very cute little town) has supermarket and pubs (Clancy’s serves wonderful roasters and has live music). Convenient to take day trips to Connemara peninsula. All in all a grest place to stay.

We enjoyed the owner and property manager. Beautiful view of the water. When the house was first built it was probably very nice. It needs a little tender loving care. Some spiders were harmed while we stayed there.
