About this property
Traditional cosy retreat in the heart of Connemara
Peaceful retreat in the heart of Connemara. The house is a 3-minute drive up a country lane off the main Spiddal to Carraroe road. Newly refurbished and surrounded by mature trees, the house is a perfect base for the Aran Islands, with Rossaveel ferry only a 5 minute drive away. Or take a trip to Connemara National Park. Or jump in the sea in one of the many local beaches.

About the host
Hosted by Eimear Ní Choisdealbha

I am a Galway girl, born and raised in beautiful Connemara in the west of Ireland. I am a fluent Irish speaker and write for a living. Traveling is my passion and I love swimming, scuba diving and snorkelling. Asia is my favourite place in the world for the fantastic diving and snorkelling. I love meeting people from around the world and I will do my very best to make your stay enjoyable. Thank you for checking out my place and I hope to talk to you soon.
Why they chose this property
The original house was built in the 1920's by my grandfather when he returned from the war and has recently been refurbished. You can see some of the old walls, a meter thick! There are four well-sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. The living room and dining room are open plan, with a small kitchen off the dining room. The fireplace is cozy and the beds are comfy. The house is surrounded by mature trees, so there is lots of space for the little ones to explore whilst you relax on the patio in the evenings. Have some porridge oats ready and friendly robins might come and say hello!
