“Carna Chalet”

We stayed in the chalet early September. It's a beautiful house very well equipped & spotlessly clean. Very close to a variety if beaches if you get good weather! We would recommend a visit but be prepared for a long drive.

“Great accommodation, easy to find and great location.”

Handy for the pub, shop and beaches. Mrs Canavan was the perfect host, keeping up with social distancing rules, she had left us instructions for everything we needed to know. The house was exactly as described and spotless too. We could not have asked for better. We loved the piece and quiet

“There is a sign in the kitchen that says "Welcome" - and that's exactly how I felt at Carna Chalet.”

Anne-Marie was the perfect host - extremely helpful and accommodating. The furnishings and appliances were top-notch - no white plastic kettles here! There is a bus stop just down the road, and although there is only one bus per day, it is enough that no car is needed (but note that Bus Eireann no longer carry bicycles, which leaves me with a dilemma - how am I going to return to Carna Chalet in future years?!)

“Carna Chalet is in a quiet town along the Wild Atlantic way.”

The accommodation was clean and cared for. The area around the lodge is very quiet, it has a couple of shops close by, hotel with good food. Best local food shops are a couple of miles drive on the main roads ,they had better selection there. The local beaches are within a few miles and I have to say we were surprised to fine good local beaches which we had exclusivity too. The area/scenery along the coast is stunning and well worth the drive. Galway town is about 1hr 20 mins. drive away. We have obviously stayed during the CV19 pandemic, although ROI is quieter due to restrictions we still had a lovely stay.

“The accommodation was exceptionally clean and comfortable.”

The location was excellent at the edge of the village within walking distance of two restaurants. Though not in walking distance of the beach there are many excellent swimming beaches and piers close by which we enjoyed. Our thanks to the Canavans who were excellent hosts and made us feel welcome and comfortable. Definitely one I would recommend

“We had a wonderful week in Carna.”

The chalet was cosy, extremely clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable family holiday. The hosts are really warm and friendly people who made us very welcome despite Covid-19! The area around Carna is a hidden gem and has so much wild beauty with hidden coves, amazing views, great walks and so much more.

About the location

CARNA, COUNTY GALWAY

Clifden 23 miles; Galway 49 miles.

The small, quiet village of Carna in the heart of the Irish-speaking area of Connemara Gaeltacht, is set on the shores of Galway Bay, overlooking Galway Harbour, in the scenic region of Connemara. Carna is noted for its traditional Irish music and singing, and music sessions are held weekly in the local pubs and hotel. For walkers, runners, cyclists and hillwalkers, the area provides opportunities unrivalled for their tranquillity and scenery. The quiet roads leading to Mweenish Island and the local coves are ideal for family cycling. Lying off the coast of Carna is St. MacDara's Island, a site of pilgrimage and mass held on 16th July each year. The famous sailing crafts, the 'Galway Hookers' were made in Carna, as well as a small boat called the Currach, and the area is well known for the skilled boat-makers who crafted them. There are still some working examples of the 'Galway Hooker' moored at Mweenish Island and Cashel Bay and 'hooker' regattas are held throughout July and August. It is also possible to book a day trip on a local 'hooker'. There is great fishing in the area with many working piers providing an ideal place for lobster, crab and mackerel fishing, while Connemara National Park, home to the famous Connemara Pony and Kylemore Abbey are both within easy reach, providing great days out for all the family.
