Spacious and comfy cottage even for longer stays

10.0

The location is quiet and it’s just a short walk to Clifden town centre and to the bay. It has everything you need. Big outside area. The hosts are super friendly. Very clean and cute details in the rooms. Very spacious indeed. We definitely recommend this cottage. Thank you.

Nothing to complain about

Geschmackvoll und liebevoll eingerichtet, viele kleine Details. Schöner Garten. Große und geräumig Zimmer. Im Wohnbereich einen schönen mit Holz zu befeuernder Ofen. Rita & Micheál sind äußerst zuvorkommend und liebenswerte Gastgeber!

10.0

The cottage was very clean, cosy and well equipped. The owners, Rita and Michael were very warm and welcoming. We paid a little more than we usually do for the two of us but Rita left us a lovely welcome hamper and a lot of thought had gone into making our stay special.
