Dear Guest,
Thank you for your kind review and score, it is much appreciated. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay! As per the write up the cottage is located on the tidal island of Omey, Access on to the island by car is possible when the tide is out. Your property contact advises on tidal times and timetables can also be found online. We hope this wont deter you from returning to the area again in the future.
Warm Regards
We really enjoyed our stay on Omey and the house was in a great location and spacious. It was really peaceful and we enjoyed lovely walks.
It had all we could need in the kitchen and more.
Sweeneys had most things you would need but there are more shops in Clifden which isn’t far.
The only thing we would say is that it would be useful to have information about the area together with some maps and bird and flower guide books.
Wi-Fi wasn’t working initially but that was quickly sorted and then worked well.

Our happy holiday on omey
Omey is an incredible holiday destination with its amazing scenery and peaceful surroundings. Love the fact there are no shops of any sort which means complete switch off from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. All in all just a heavenly place.

Zustand Haus ok, Instruktion hat gefehlt.
Das Haus haben wir sauber und in gutem Zustand angetroffen. Leider war bei der Übernahme niemand vor Ort, der uns Funktion von Heizung, Kochherd, Abwaschmaschine usw. erklärt hat. Die verstopfte Abwasserleitung wurde nach Meldung sofort durchgespült.
Das Haus ist mit zwei Badezimmern ausgerüstet. Das ist bei der Nutzung durch mehrere Personen sehr angenehm. Toll ist die Lage des Hauses, phantastisch die Aussicht auf alle vier Seiten.
