About this property

Glamp in luxury safari tent with outdoor bath. Connemara near Aran Island ferry.

If you would like to camp but want a proper bed then this is for you. Suitable for couples, friends and families with children 8 and over.We offer glamping for softies under canvas in spacious safari tents (11m x 5.4m) but with all the comforts of home and room to all spread out. Our four tents each have 3 bedrooms and sleep up to 6 adults in comfort (our bunk beds are 4ft wide). All tents have en-suite bathrooms and 3 bedrooms with hotel quality beds, linens, towels and electric blankets. Each tent has its own living/dining room and kitchen area with 2 ring induction hob, and fridge freezer. Sit back and relax on your verandah with a glass of something chilled and enjoy the distant sea views. There are USB points in each tent to charge your devices.

Our four safari tents at Connemara Glamping are all internally the same and are named after local birds which you may see around depending on the time of year.

An Spideog ( Robin) has a private, outdoor, wood-fired Boheme bath suitable for two adults on its own deck a short distance from the back of your tent. Soak in the tub on a clear night under a star filled canopy.

We are in the perfect location in the heart of Irish culture. Irish is the first language here in South Connemara. We have lots of outdoor space, and a communal fire pit for star gazing nights. We are a short walk to a safe, sandy beach - take our portable BBQ and cook dinner to the sound of lapping waves. We have great walks and on-road cycling. There are off road cycling trails, fishing and golf courses within a short drive. We are less than 5 minutes drive to the ferries or plane to the Aran Islands (a 7 minute flight). Our local cafe, Pota, is Ireland's top cafe for 2022 and made the Irish Independent's Top100 Restaurants in Ireland.
Come and explore - there's too much to do to list here but it's less stressful to stay in one place and have days out. We are in the perfect location for day trips into Connemara, or the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher. Kylemore Abbey, Patrick Pearse's cottage, Connemara National Park, Clifden and the Sky Road, Killary Fijord, Cong, and Ashford Castle can be combined to make several days out. If you fancy a beach then a trip to Roundstone and Dog's Bay is in order. In the other direction Galway with its restaurants, festivals, bars and live music is a 35-40 minute drive. You can organise an electric bike tour for your group from the site with Fat Bike for a slower experience.
There's something for everyone - from romantic breaks way, to groups of adult friends and families. We're always happy to give you some ideas for an itinerary or try and help you source whatever you need.

Wonderful stay in Connemara!
The tent was beautiful, cozy, dry (even while it rained), and full of charm. We enjoyed the comfy beds, warm duvets, and fully stocked kitchen. Enjoying the blue super moon from the front porch was an added bonus! Janet was a lovely host. Very easy to communicate with and the thoughtful touches like leaving basic supplies and homemade lemon cake were so appreciated as we had just arrived in Ireland. Michael was also so helpful and full of great information from local walks to great fish and chips to help with the bonfire. Would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends. And of course we all enjoyed visits from Riley, their sweet pup!!

Un camping con muchas comodidades
La tienda de campaña estaba muy bien equipada y con decoración agradable, los colchones con mantas eléctricas lo mejor. Eso sí, en el resto de la tienda la temperatura es más difícil de regular. No deja de ser una tienda de campaña. Los dueños son muy agradables y mandaron toda clase de indicaciones para llegar.

Thrilled
We were a little cautious about staying with Connemara Glamping given usual Irish weather, but could not have been more pleased. Near daily rain including a few good storms didn’t get past the tent. The electric blankets and mattress covers took away the occasional chill at night. Everything was clean and comfortable. A great stay.
