After exploring the beaches, hiking the Twelve Bens, cycling the Connemara Greenway, or wandering the colourful streets of Roundstone Village, soak in the bath and let the day's adventures melt away. Every corner of this home has been designed to help guests slow down, reconnect, and embrace the beauty of their surroundings.
Just a short stroll from the world-famous Dog's Bay and within easy reach of Gurteen Beach and Roundstone Village, Mara House is perfectly positioned for discovering the best of Connemara.
