Four Bedroom Cottage. Spectacular Ocean & Island Views. Close To Beach & Pubs.

Dana: When we saw we would have a guest from Hawaii, we were a bit concerned that Carnmore. might not measure up. We are so pleased to learn that you enjoyed the views and the comforts of Carnmore. John

Kerry: Very kind words. Glad the boys could enjoy the Connemara and Carnmore experience. It is great to explore all the variety the area has to offer, from golfing to hiking to swimming to some of the ancient historical sites. Most of all hopefully you enjoyed the people. Know you are welcome back anytime. Hope the rest of your summer is as enjoyable. John Connelly

Thanks, Nicole. I do hope you got to the Omey Races, as only once guest each year has that opportunity. Please let us know if you come back to Ireland next year, and you can make Carnmore a regular part of the experience. John

Philomena: Great to hear that you took advantage of sea and mountains! You are most welcome back to Carnmore anytime that suits you. John

My heavens, Bruna and Ashling, hope your foot is ok. That the views helped you overcome the misery of a broken bone at least provides some positive. You would most assuredly be welcome back next ear. John

Bruna: So very pleased that families can once again enjoy Carnmore. Margaret and I appreciate your enjoying Carnmore as a place to be with family and friends -- even if just gazing and wondering at the shifting beauty of Mother Nature outside! Stay safe and well. John

Mary: Thanks for the kinds words. Margaret and I are enthusiastic about Carnmore and so enjoy sharing the home and surroundings with others. We cannot get guarantee all that it won't rain, but "there is not such things as bad weather only the wrong clothes!" Thanks again and we would enjoy having you back anytime. (Would your daughter admits it evens beats the Rebels of Cork?) John

Pamela: Thank you for your very kind words about Carnmore. Our family has enjoyed it so much that we want to make sure our guests feel welcome and "at home" in the West of Ireland. You mentioned, and we could not agree more, that the people in the Lettergesh area are special -- comfortable and welcoming, and always up for story ot tale. We are blessed to have known Mary and the extended Kerrigan family for more than 40 years, and she exemplifies all the warmth of the region. You and the family are welcome back anytime. (Hope you visited the "Killary" Sheep Farm, not a "killer" sheep farm. I can vouch that the former is an amazing experience to see the dogs at work!) John

Andreea: What a lyrical description of Carnmore. So very happy that things worked out and your whole family could enjoy the relaxing atmosphere after such a hectic year. Hope things continue smoothly onward. John

Gemma: Lettergesh strand or beach is a marvel -- high tide is the rocky shore and low tide the beach is 400 m wide. Great for walking. You had heat like Miami! Our family so appreciates when guests report they just soaked in the views -- which can change hourly, creating the moving tapestry of North Connemara. John

Thanks, Cuana. Glad you were able to book and enjoy Carnmore on relatively short notice. John

Cillian. So glad you were able to enjoy the views, fresh weather, and “natural social distancing.” You are most welcome back anytime. Hope your year starts well after the break at Carnmore. John

Joanne. So pleased you felt the “spirit of the place.” Oliver St John Gogarty has great quote of region, “... something friendly and akin and full of all that might be needed, if need were to arise; but it never did, for you felt that nothing was lacking.” We hope to have you back.

Tina: We only hope they were the right tea bags for ye! It is always such a pleasure to realize families and friends enjoyed Carnmore as much as we do. Stay safe and hope to see you next Spring! John

Louise: Thanks for nice note. Now trick is to keep the area the best kept secret. Glad you could get moving again also. John

Barbara wrote: The house has a great location with a great view. Perhaps a more detailed description of what is available in the house might be helpful. So that you can adjust to it beforehand. For example, Dishwasher not available. No Wi-Fi, TV, radio. (from Google Translate) John Connelly's response: Barbara: Danke für den Hinweis zu Haus und Lage. Für Ihren Vorschlag: Wir möchten die Gäste erneut darauf hinweisen, dass Carnmore ein Ort ist, an dem sie sich völlig entspannen können, weg von alltäglichen Ablenkungen (z. B. Fernsehen, Radio, WLAN und sogar eine Uhr). Wir werden auch überprüfen, ob die Liste der Annehmlichkeiten korrekt ist. John Barbara: Thank you for the note about the house and location. For your suggestion: We want to re-emphasize to guests that Carnmore is designed to be a place to relax totally, away from everyday distractions (e.g., tv, radio, wifi, and even a clock). We will also double check that the list of amenities is accurate. John

Pierre wrote (Google Translate): the calm, the view, the dream perfect ********************************************* My response (Google Translate) Pierre Merci. Parfois, le moins de mots le plus éloquent. Pierre. Thanks. Sometimes the fewer words the more eloquent.

Patrick: Danke für deine Gedanken zu Carnmore. Die Ansichten ändern sich ständig und sind wunderschön. Wir hoffen, dass andere Gäste unser Zuhause genauso genießen wie Ihre Familie. John From Google Translate (so excuse grammar errors): A fantastic location with breathtaking views. A cozy house with lots of atmosphere. Above all, the view from the living room with cozy turf fire will make even the cold and rainy days an experience. Absolute recommendation! Patrick: Thank you for your thoughts on Carnmore. The views are always changing and are beautiful. We hope other guests enjoy our home as much as your family. John

Hannes: An apt description of "off the beaten track" --- but a piece of haven when you get there! One of our joys is sharing Carnmore with guests from Germany, Spain, France, Netherlands, UK, and America. We even had our first Finnish family last year, so people do make the trek! Have a wonderful rest of the summer. John

Louise: Thanks for the note about the beaches, So many guests comment on the great views, so nice to hear that you enjoyed the very clean beaches (and hope you hopped in the refreshing water too!). The comments about the restaurants are well-appreciated too, as families are regularly wondering the best places to enjoy local fare. Enjoy the rest of summer and you are all most welcome back any time.

Armen: Thank you for your gracious comments, and glad Carnmore sold itself up to its billing. Know that you are always welcome back. Hopefully your mother enjoyed the experience and time with your family. Thanks also for being patient with the VRBO/HomeAway system glitch at the start of the process. It is normally a very easy system to use, but your creativity in solving the problem was most welcome. John

Clare: Thanks for the kind words about the views. My father built Carnmore high on the hill, to ensure we could enjoy the changing colours of the waters, the more than 50 islands that dot the seascape, and the clouds moving in and out of the top of the mountains. Am she is is feeling quite content, knowing that his ideas are being enjoyed by guests. Thanks you also for your graciousness. Hope the full global family enjoyed themselves, with plenty of tales and laughter. John

Clémence, on est heureux que vous et vos amis ayez passé un bon moment à la maison. On a adoré la photo du pub que vous avez envoyée, et espère que vous pourrez bientôt revenir en Irlande!
