“Sarah and Padraig are wonderful hosts.”

They live next door and were always helpful with any questions we had. Padraig went out of his way to find us a guide for a day of fishing on Lough Corrib. This is our second time staying there and we are looking forward to a third.

“I have used Sykes for a number of years and stayed in good and bad cottages, this one I would rate as one of the best for the price.”

It was excellent all in v good condition The cooker ,washing machine, even a tumble drier and god forbid a dishwasher !! All in v good condition . The cottage is very spacious, and has some fantastic views Everything was v good, all except one thing which I told Mr / Mrs Lydon several times NO INTERNET !! in this day and age that is ,really is not good. It did cause us a few problems. Otherwise this cottage is a real gem and well looked after. Mr /Mrs Lydon are very amiable hosts

“We had a lovely stay at the cottage.”

upon arrival we were welcomed by the owners who live nextdoors. We had a friendly chat, The hosts even made sure there was fresh milk in the fridge, coffee, tea and chocolate biscuits in the kitchen cupboard! It was a very clean, comfortable holiday home with large garden to relax in. Open area. Washing machine and dryer available. Shop around the corner, supermarket at 8 km.

“I would definitely recommend robins roost the owners were very nice people and could answer any questions I needed answered only thing I missed was the wi-fi.”

It’s a nice for touring and some lovely scenery would definitely go back to robins roost.

- Mr Docherty, March 2019
“Rent very easy to find.”

Very well received, very discreet owners although their house is next. Ideal house, the right size for three people, very well equipped, it has all the comfort you can wish Calm, very beautiful view. Really well located for visiting Connemara and Mayo. We highly recommend it.

“Robin's Roost is a lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings.”

We came into Corr na Mona through Cong (The Quiet Man village), and our first sight of Lough Corrib was simply breathtaking! The cottage itself is situated a couple of hundred metres down a side road, but the directions Sykes gave us were spot-on! The cottage is simply but comfortably furnished, has all you need and has stunning views from the front door and windows. Corr na Mona is centrally located for tourism, with Galway City, Clifden and Westport all within an hours' drive. Corr na Mona has no cafes or restaurants, but a few minutes' drive to Cong or Clonbur brings you to several quality restaurants and quite a few cafes. Our hosts, Mr & Mrs Lydon were friendly and approachable, but unobtrusive- they left us to get on with things, but were always available with advice and local knowledge. All in all, a wonderful holiday, Robin's Roost is recommended for couples looking for a romantic retreat, or just a bit of peace and quiet. We would definitely go back, except there's so much more of Ireland to see . . .

“Lovely cottage very comfortable, friendly owners.”

“Peace and quiet”

Robin's Roost is a lovely cottage in a beautiful setting. It is ideal for a couple but can accommodate a child in the same bedroom. It is well equipped and very nicely presented. The owners live next door and are very friendly. There is a pub and shop a short walk away and a supermarket in nearby Clonbur. This property is ideally located for exploring Galway, Connemara, coastal villages, and Loughs Corrib and Maske. Lough Corrib is beautiful and can be viewed in all its glory from a local walk called the Seanbothar which skirts around Mount Gable which itself offers a pleasant climb. There are lots of opportunities for fishing for those with a particular interest.

“IDEAL SPOT FOR QUIET HOLIDAY”

This is a great place to base yourself to visit the West of Ireland. the setting is stunning and the cottage is first class everything you need. The owner has put a lot of thought into what you might need and the place was spotless fresh and bright. I would recommend this to any couple wanting away for a quiet break.

- Willie N, June 2016
“A perfect quiet 'Getaway'.”

We are very independent travellers and thus a self catering holiday is our preference; added to this we enjoy the great outdoors and thus a cottage situated in expansive surroundings is ideal. But we also like our 'creature comforts'! Robin's Roost ticked all these boxes. It is fully equipped to a high standard with all that is needed for a short break away; from its front door views of neighbouring mountains can be seen (and in mid-October we took breakfast outside!); it is centrally located for 'exploring' the Galway/Mayo region; the owners greeted us warmly and explained a few finer details then within minutes of arrival we had walking boots on and walking the lakeside. We used the kitchen for breakfast and found everything to a high standard and all in good working order. The heating is via radiator on a time clock which can be manually over-ridden and worked perfectly. Likewise the over-bath shower was of a high standard producing continuous hot water. The furniture in the lounge area is comfortable with a dining table able to sit four. There is also a flat screen TV. The bedroom is large with ample storage and has a double plus single bed (so not only ideal for couples but also for those with a youngster). The cottage's location is remote: within walking distance of the local pub but necessitating a drive of a few miles to the nearest restaurant. This did not worry us at all. On the plus side it is equidistant from large towns/cities to the north, west, south and east. So for us a perfect cottage for a short break.

“What an amazing view”

We have come back from our holiday after staying at Robins Roost relaxed and invigorated. Set in a wonderful location, everything in the property was pristine. The owners were warm and friendly and willing to recommend places to visit. We used this property as a base for touring the area. Wonderful walking countryside, and 'yes' each day we were visited by 'a Robin'. Because this property is on one level and there is a single bed as well as a double in the bedroom it would lend itself to someone who might have slight mobility problems, as well as a couple with a child. There is ample parking and a nice bench and table for eating 'al fresco', being able to take in the wonderful view as seen in pic 2. I have already recommended this property to friends.
