Close to the charming village of Cong in Ireland's lake district, this 200-year-old cottage is ideally situated between Lough Corrib and Lough Mask on the gateway to Connemara.
Less than a 5-minute drive, you can explore the world-famous Ashford Castle with its golf course and 5-star restaurant spa and outdoor facilities.
Accommodation We have renovated and modernised the cottage while retaining all the key original features. All mod cons have been installed. However, the home still boasts many of the essential characteristics of the traditional Irish cottage in a beautiful north Connemara location. - It is rural, one floor in height, and the open plan kitchen/living/sitting room area is the heart of the property.
Emigration claimed many Irish people throughout successive generations, and this part of the world suffered more than most. These days, it is our pleasure to welcome back ancestors of those who had to leave.
We cannot say enough good about this property - it was perfect in every way. In the country on a quiet lane, but close enough to town for dinner and supplies. The cottage is beautifully updated and has a most interesting history. Michael is a wonderful host, and always there when you need him

The home is a perfect haven. Everything was exactly as noted with beautiful details to all the remodeling done. The location is on a relatively quiet road that is about 2 miles from end to end and makes a perfect walk in the AM or PM. You may have a few sheep or others who demand a photo or two. Short distance to Cong and Ballinrobe, Oughterard, and Maam area are lovely to explore. Michael stays in contact as needed as well as gives you space to explore. I will return, hopefully!
