Beautiful house with stunning views of the sea and mountains
Our house is built on the foundations of an old fisherman's cottage and has always been family-owned. It is a very unique place. Grown. Created. The central room is spacious (6m x 10m) with an open kitchen, dining area, wood-burning stove + seating area and a cosy bay window from which you can gaze out over the bay and the Twelve Bens mountains beyond. Absolutely picturesque. The nearby small harbour is a scenic point on the Wild Atlantic Way. Adjacent to this room is a large conservatory, a bathroom and an idyllic bedroom with a double bed. The house is heated with several electric heaters. Electricity is not included in the rental price (must be read on arrival and departure and paid for afterwards. The cost per kWh is currently €0.35). There is also a stove that can be heated with coal, peat and wood (which can be purchased in the nearest village, Carna, and is also not included in the rental price). Linen package (bed linen and normal towels) €10 per person per stay, to be put on by yourself. A WiFi connection is available.
In this house, you can find yourself. It offers you great beauty and freedom and helps you to slow down. That's why we don't have a dishwasher.
Despite the good facilities, our motto is: back to the roots and high in the sky
come be there breathe, look, enjoy, experience, live... and live well!

The host communicated well despite time differences. The property is exactly as described and was a lovely place to stay. The views were ever changing and all beautiful. We had a little trouble understanding the heating system the first day, but there is a local contact provided.
What an incredible and comfortable place. The views, property and region were stunning. Loved the cottage and its decor and the peaceful easy energy that surrounded us. We stayed eight days and enjoyed many day trips throughout the region. Plus several days simply being in the awe inspiring space watching the tides come in and flow out. Thank you for such a great place.
This assemblage of cottages is perfect: gorgeous views, lovely garden, tasteful, comfy furniture and useful fittings -- not the usual, drab IKEA (or worse) style but a warm, personal, entirely cozy house. And with good books to boot!
Even if it should, occasionally, be raining (which it didn't while we were there), you never feel indoors. Perfect place for nature and book lovers.
We stayed for 3 weeks and loved every day of our visit. The house is comfortable and has everything anyone could need. The manager hosts are thoughtful and helpful. The view is of the magnificent Twelve Bens Mountains and wonderful baby lambs, and occasional Irish hares hopping around the stones. You will love it.
Beautiful house, modern fittings, clean and nicely decorated. Pretty flowered garden all around.
Quiet location, with stunning views, to the west, so guaranteed sunsets. Easily driveable roads to it.
Easy check-in with neighbour. Everything is done for you to feel welcome.
One small thing, bedrooms 2 and 3 are in the annex, with connection only through the outside. Not a problem at all for us, but it might the case for a family with young children.
Wunderschöne Lagemit Blick auf den Meeresarm und den 12 Bens (Berge). Wir haben uns auf Anhieb super wohl gefühlt. Super ruhig, angenehme Atmosphäre und wunderschöne Natur!!
Ein Familienkleinod wurde uns überlassen. Eingerichtet und mit Geschichte - absolut in der Natur gelegen. Schöner Wintergarten - wunderschöne Aussicht. Liegt etwas einsam, über eine Landstraße zu erreichen, jedoch im Umkreis von ca 50 km viele schöne Ziele und Berge zum Wandern.
Dieses Haus hat alles, was man braucht, um zur Ruhe und Erholung zu kommen. Wunderbarer Ausblick dank des Panoramafensters und des Wintergartens. Wunderschöne Sonnenuntergänge. Das Haus hat einen schönen Charme, den man bei vielen neuen Häusern vermisst. Ein Stück irische Seele.
Wunderschönes Cottage mit tollem Ausblick über Meer und Berge. Alles, was man braucht ist vorhanden, super Küchenausstattung mit genügend Töpfen, Gewürzen etc. Hervorragende Matratzen...Alles in allem entspricht das Häuschen den Bildern, nur noch ein bisschen schöner!
Tolles Cotage zum entspannen.
wunderschöne große Fenster mit tollem Ausblick aufs Wasser.
Viele gemütliche, schöne Plätze im Haus, um die Aussicht zu genießen oder am Kamin zu sitzen.
Gutes Restaurant in 1 km Entfernung.
Etliche Ausflugsziele in der Umgebung.
Infomaterial dazu gibt es im Haus.
Nette Gastgeber und Ansprechpartner vor Ort.
Es war rundherum ein sehr schöner und entspannter Aufenthalt. Alles ist in dem schönen und geschmackvoll gestalteten Cottage vorhanden. Die Kommunikation mit den Besitzer:in war hervorragend. Uns fehlte es an nichts! Grandiose Umgebung, tolle Umgebung, beeindruckende Farben und sehr Nette Nachbarn! Herzlichen Dank für den tollen Aufenthalt :)
Wir haben eine Woche in Glinsk verbracht. Der Ort selber und die Umgebung ist in jeder Hinsicht traumhaft. Ruhe und traumhafte Natur in einem wunderschönen Haus. Selbst Regentage sind hier Urlaubstage. Das Haus ist großzügig und die Schlafzimmer sind gemütlich eingerichtet, die Küche ist super ausgestattet. Es bleiben keine Wünsche offen. Gerne wieder. Liebe Grüße. Heico
Wer Ruhe sucht und trotzdem unterwegs sein möchte, ist hier genau richtig.
Klingt nach einem Widerspruch, ist aber keiner.
Das Häuschen bietet alles was man braucht.
Keinen unnötigen Luxus. Dafür das perfekte Setup, um zur Ruhe zu kommen.
Wenn das kein Luxus ist?!
Die nähere und etwas weitere Umgebung bietet genug Gelegenheit und die Infrastruktur für Sport, Unterhaltung, gute Restaurants und Pubs sowie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.
Man ist zwar ein bisschen mit dem Auto unterwegs, wird aber mit dem Ausblick auf eine herrliche, sehr abwechslungsreiche Landschaft entschädigt an der man sich kaum sattsehen kann.
Fazit: Rundum empfehlenswert.
Vorort hat man die hilfsbereiten Nachbarn als Ansprechpartner und in der „Ferne“ die freundliche Vermieterin, die uns bestens mit Informationen via mail versorgte.
An dieser Stelle auch nochmal herzlichen Dank! 😀
Schnuckliges Häuschen mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Der Ausblick und die Sonnenuntergänge sind unbezahlbar! Wunderschöne Lage direkt am Meer. Wer Auszeit und Abstand vom Alltag sucht, findet sie hier. Wir hatten wunderschöne Tage. Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin war perfekt.
