Vacation in paradise typical country house

Ireland: vacation in paradise .......
where I have a cottage for self catering for rent. It is in the Wild West of the green island in County Galway, just above the hole mask, which has an underground connection to 5km distant Loch Corrib, one of the best angling in Ireland.
The house is surrounded by a green meadow, in a quiet location and has a fantastic view over the lake. The next towns Clonbur and Corr na Mona are 6 km away. The closest supermarket is the Post office at 800m distance.
Who can not do anything with these offerings, which need only trust to turn to me .... my free 'work therapy' in the house and garden is sure to get him well.
Incidentally, herbs and salads from my organic garden may be picked vain.
The house offers 4-6 people. It has a downstairs living room with wood stove, a kitchen and a bathroom with shower. Above with cozy holzverkeideten roof pitches a double bedroom and another bedroom with bunk bed and extra futon. Central heating does not exist, however, for a well-functioning wood stove, halogen heater and radiators .... It is not a 3-star hotel, but a very cozy, rustic Irish Cottage, for the tourists, who finally want to know what simple country life means.
The cottage features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Perfect!

We were greeted by our host, Rosi, when we arrived. She was very welcoming and understanding to the fact that we were late. Her little cottage was all that we hoped it would be. Simple, rustic, and everything you would think an Irish cottage should be. The location was great. Waking up to the view of the mountains was amazing. Rosi, was great and made sure we had everything we needed. There is a beautiful garden to explore if you have time. Hoping to go back again. Thank you Rosi for the wonderful experience.

Rosie's Retreat

Fab location , beautiful garden full of a huge variety of plants and flowers, very helpful owner, very old and small cottage but what we wanted instead of extreme modern amenities, owner even tried to get us bikes, cows in field beside you, easy blackberry picking. Think that a booklet ,file or folder with all the helpful hints for living in the cottage would help as too much to remember....could also put in details about local trips and amenities....lot of work but once it is done that's it!!!! Overall a great stay.

An idyllic country getaway. Wonderful cosy cottage, well equipped with everything you need. The garden was an absolute delight. Rosi was the perfect hostess (along with Gwynnie), showing us the natural wonders of the area. A great place to unwind, relax, and find your creative muse.

Vacation in paradise indeed!

This property and its very friendly and helpful owner more than matched the description and photographs of the property and surrounding area. The house itself is cute and quaint and we loved it. The garden is spectacularly beautiful and just how I like gardens to be - well-designed and full of interest, with lots of hidey holes and varied places to sit and enjoy the plants and spaces themselves but also the adjacent scenery. Your only problem will be tearing yourself away to enjoy all that this wonderful area has to offer - we visited three beaches (Glassilaun, Dog's Bay and Old Head) as well as spending much time at the beautiful Lough Corrib (top tip, there is an excellent swimming spot just outside Cornamona, only a few minutes away where we spent much time). We also visited Cong, Roundstone and Westport. Of course, it helped that our week coincided with a heatwave. Other thoughts, the drive down from Louisburgh to Leenane was a personal highlight, the very essence of Connemara. All in all, excellent in all respects and thanks again to Rosi for the opportunity to enjoy.

A lovely place to stay in beautiful surroundings with a warm and welcoming host

This cottage is a really authentic old Irish cottage set amongst a beautiful garden next to Rosi's house. Rosi is a wonderful, warm, friendly person and it was a pleasure to be her guest. The location is close to a local village with amenities as well as lakes, mountains and lovely countryside. A great base from which to explore the West of Ireland! Thank you Rosi and Gwinnie the dog :-)

Enchanting little cottage

we had a lovely week in the cottage and loved spending time in the beautiful garden, we never knew what we would see next with the many wildlife. the Accuracy of the online listing is good expect we did'nt expect the extra charge for electricity and cleaning, we put this down to a problem with site as when booked it did not state this. but it was fine after and had a great time, Rosi is very helpful and a lovely lady to chat to plus gwinny the dog is great company, lots to see in area thank you for a lovely stay

This cottage is lovely and the garden is exquisite! It is like stepping back into a calmer time, simple, cosy and comfortable. While compact the cottage is very well equipped especially the really practical kitchen, everything we needed was to hand. Rosi is a friendly, helpful Bean an Tí, very knowledgable about the local and surrounding areas. Overall a most enjoyable stay.

What a great place!

The cottage is comfortable and well equipped, the location is wonderful, and Rosi is a most friendly and helpful owner. The cottage is old and has a charming atmosphere, and very important: all you need for a comfortable stay is there and works well: a comfortable bed and sofa, good heating, also on chilly days, and a kitchen that contains all you need, and in good condition: even the knives were sharp! The location, between two lakes, is very peaceful, with beatiful views, and lovely local wlking options. From here it is easy to explore Mayo, Galway and even Sligo and Clare. Finally, Rosi is very friendly and helpful, with her sheep dog Gwinny as a charming companion. The cleanliness and entire setup of this cottage and its lovely garden shows that she takes her job as property owner seriously. All in all, we had a really great week in this cottage, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it!

Traumurlaub im Feenland ....

Wir fühlten uns wie im Märchen: romantisches Cottage, zauberhafter blühender Garten, Ausblicke über Seen und Berge, Ruhe und Entspannung pur, liebevolle Gastgeberin, mit Hund und Katz zum knutschen; Dieser Urlaub bei Rosi war top. Das Cottage ist wahrhaft eine Empfehlung. Gut dass wir es gefunden haben und zumindest 1 Woche hier verweilen durften. Johannes & Sabine aus Erlangen

Die Küchenausstattung ist ausgesprochen gut, es war wirklich alles vorhanden, was man so brauchen könnte, sogar scharfe Messer!Und erst der Garten, da fehlen die Worte - ein Meer von Blumen. Und der abendliche Kräutertee aus frischer Pfefferminze schmeckte uns, ebenso das Obst aufs dem Garten.Rosi Busch, du bist eine wundervolle Gastgeberin!
