About this property

Charming Rural Cottage

Completely renovated from top to bottom in 2021, this cozy cottage is the ideal peaceful Irish retreat. The land has been in our family for generations, & now we are pleased to share this rural getaway with you. Breathtaking views of the countryside, & surrounding stone outbuildings make this a picture-perfect throwback to country living.

Secluded, yet only a few minutes from two quaint villages, 20 mins to Knock, and just a short drive to nearby destinations such as Westport, Sligo, & Galway

First trip to Ireland

County Roscommon home

Enjoyed our stay in Terry’s lovely rural Co. Roscommon home. Everything was very comfortable. A nice base to explore parts of Ireland from. Terry was a great help with messaging directions down country roads.

Simply perfect

This cottage! Spectacular views, beautiful, clean, modern interior with historical buildings on the property as well, comfortable beds, simple yet elegant! It made our 16 day stay in Ireland even more wonderful! It is within a two hour drive or less to many amazing sights in Ireland: the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara Way and the Cliff Baths, several castles, Lettergesh Beach, Sligo for larger city offerings and at least a hundred quaint, magical villages and towns. Within a 40 minute or less drive to Roscommon and Carrick on Shannon. And don’t forget all the local conveniences of Ballaghaderren! Make sure to go to the Brusna Inn for social dancing and to Spells Pub for some traditional music. I just can’t say enough great things about this glorious cottage!

Secluded idyll

Pretty property with far-reaching views but very close to amenities. We particularly enjoyed the private suntrap at the back, the cosy bedroom and excellent WIFI. Few additions would have made it even better for our personal preferences: place mats & coasters, sofa cushions and a fold up clothes dryer (most UK/EU clothes are not suitable for tumble drying!) Would stay again.

Schönes gepflegtes Cottage

Schönes neues Cottage, wo für alles gesorgt ist. Es liegt einsam, nur die Kühe vom Nachbarn schauen beim Essen zu. Die Lage ist gut, so konnten wir tolle Ausflüge nach Donegal, Westport und Galway machen.
