Property Overview

Nestling in a private sheltered cove on the shores of Killary harbour, and having been recently renovated to a high standard, Leenane Cottage is the perfect hideaway for your main holiday or a short escape break. Set amidst the spectacular Delphi mountain wilderness, yet close to leisure, adventure, food and drink amenities, its location on the Wild Atlantic Way makes it an ideal touring base for your holiday in Connemara.

Accommodation:
Recently renovated, the cottage is very spacious with a cosy, rustic charm.
It has 4 bedrooms: a master bedroom with a double bed, en suite and stunning view; a second double room which shares a bathroom with another bedroom which has a bunk bed (ideal for children); and a twin room with a separate bathroom.

There is a large, fully-fitted, modern kitchen ideal for any cooking-enthusiasts. A dining room which is connected to the kitchen has the best view looking out onto the water. The living room has lovely, comfortable seating centred around a big open fire. There is a TV and old antique radio available for you to enjoy.
Outside the cottage, there is a picnic area and a BBQ for a nice summer evening. Cot and high-chair available on request.

Activities:

There are a huge number of activities possible in our area:
go boating on the Killary Fjord, try the many nearby walking and cycling routes, and spend time pier fishing or jumping! Or accompany us as we tend to the many animals and crops on our adjacent organic farm. A welcome pack of fresh produce and turf/firewood is standard and included in the price. A daily package of adventure activities including surfing can be arranged by the owners if requested in advance.

The owner is a family-orientated, coffee-loving gardener who likes to keep up with cookery trends. Her secret passion is interior design and we hope you will love what she has done with the cottage.....So let her show you a real Irish welcome in this stunningly beautiful part of Ireland.

Dream stay, in a dream region. Deirde is very friendly, a cake and a fireplace were waiting for us upon arrival. Cozy cottage in a magical setting, we will most certainly come back!

Deirdre is an amazing host. She was very helpful and sent us lots of recommendations, was waiting to greet us and made us amazing bread and cake. We really enjoyed our stay in beautiful Mayo. The house was lovely, we felt very at home and we were sad to leave.

My family and I loved staying at this cottage! Surrounded by stunning views of mountains and the river, it was even more beautiful than the description. The house itself was extremely clean and comfortable, and the host was terrific to communicate with, both during check-in and throughout our stay. My children loved the sheep that wandered by to visit frequently. It was also close to a lot of sites, including Killary Fjord, Kylemore Abbey, Connemara, Galway, and Westport.

The owner was warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the area - I asked if she thought we needed to make reservations for horseback riding and she just went ahead and made reservations for us! Great local tips and suggestions. The bread she baked was absolutely delicious. Lovely stay, would recommend it!

We stayed here at the beginning of July and had a fantastic time. The cottage, views and surrounding area are as appealing as it appears online. Views onto the water are incredible plus the house itself is very comfortable with a peaceful atmosphere. As a wheelchair user, I was able to access the house and manage fine. It would be somewhere we could go back to plus the host was very helpful and accommodating.

Excellent host! She made us an incredible brown bread and gave us fresh eggs during our stay. Everything was as described online and communication with fivestar.ie was fantastic. The location of her home was absolutely breathtaking. Beds were very comfortable and all the amenities were top notch. I highly recommend booking this place. We had a fantastic time here and this splendid rental helped make that possible! Laurie and John

We had a great time staying at the cottage. The location is beautiful and the host is very welcoming and responsive. If you want to get away from it all and enjoy the rugged Irish countryside this is your place!

Stunning location with a creek and fjord a stones throw from the cottage. Wonderful layout for our family of 6. Expansive space with 3 bathrooms plenty of beds and primo kitchen sitting area with big windows looking out on the water and scenery. Good location for visiting Connemara as well as beaches like Silver Strand and the music town of Westport. But also nice to chill at the cottage. Highly recommend. Hope to return.
