Great place to stay
Unique surounding, the cottage is very simple and lovely. It was perfect to explore the area with beautiful beaches, small cliffs and Conemara Park. If you enjoy, silence and peace, it is great. The price is a little bit high for what you get in the cottage. It is basic but great.

We absolutely loved the location of this property!! It is isolated, surrounded by the ocean inlets. Be prepared for the narrow roads and the one lane dirt road that brings you out on the island. It is not modern, but we were not looking for modern. We had everything we needed for our 6 day stay and enjoyed it immensely.

Spend a week here in June. Used the cottage as a base to explore Connemara
The cottage was on a small island separated by a bridge. The area was lovely and quiet and there was plenty of birds and hares around. The only drawback was the narrow road into it but you soon learned how to negotiate the way in and where to pull in. Also if you wanted to go out at night it was too far away from nearby pubs and restaurants.

We liked Bridies cottage. It didn’t bother us to have to drive everyday. View over roundstone bay was gorgeous. Quietness was great.
Very clean.
I think you’d want to know who you are sharing with very well. Small cottage. A bit drafty. Overall loved it

What a little Gem in Connemara, we really enjoyed our stay, views were just amazing.
The Cottage was just so quaint and the area so quiet and peaceful with views from every corner. Also close to Roundstone, Ballyconeely and Clifden which was lovely for food and shops etc.
thanks also to Bridie for being an excellent hostess
