"Lovely comfy cottage, especially as the evenings are drawing in."

Great location. Quiet area, yet handy for Galway and the beautiful Connemara coast. Really enjoyed staying.

"We had a lovely stay, cottage was everything as described and more."

A bit out of the way, which suited us. So peaceful and quiet. A beautiful spot to unwind and relax. Would highly recommend it.

"After an electrical fault (not the fault of anyone) Rory and Louise moved us into alternative accommodation."

They were very helpful and nothing was any problem. We had an enjoyable stay and we would happily stay again! A big thank you to Rory, Louise and to Sean who tried everything to resolve the electrical problem.

About the location

OUGHTERARD, COUNTY GALWAY

Galway 17 miles.

The traditional village of Oughterard is found in the west of Ireland on the shores of Lough Corrib, at the start of the Connemara Mountain range and close to the famous Western Way. Home to the Oughterard 18-hole championship golf course, Derroura Mountain Bike Trail and Aughnanure Castle, there are lots of things to see and do, and located next to Lough Corrib, Oughterard is great for lovers of fishing. Just a short drive away in Roscahil is the pretty Brigit's Garden; with four main gardens and places to play, sit and relax, this is a great day out for all the family. Only 17 miles from Oughterard lies Galway City, where you can discover some of Ireland's long and varied history; visit Lynch's Castle, or trace the origin of the famous Claddagh Ring, which originated in a village near the shore of Galway Bay. A lovely lough-side village, all year round.
