Quiet retreat
We met another couple and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and setting. We were able to make day trips in the area and return to our retreat at the end of the day. The accommodations were clean, well maintained and our hostess was great.
We would visit again.

Remote getaway
The apartment is spacious with 3 en-suite large bedrooms and a kitchen/living area ideal for gathering for meals and leisure time. The exterior views were vast and remarkable. It is a very quiet, peaceful area with great access to the Wild Atlantic Way

Great property, would return
Three spacious bedrooms, each with en suite, with a large landing/shared bathroom, washing facilities, and a large lounge/kitchen. Shops, a pub, and a pizza place are walkable and a fish and chips place is a few miles away. Would recommend the Pizza Max and the O'Flaherty's fish and chips. Parking easy. We used it as a base for trips to the Aran Islands, Killary Fjord, and Kylemore Abbey. Would absolutely stay again.
