“Skellig Ard house is a beautiful, spacious house situated in a lovely quiet cul de sac.”

It had 3 shower / bathrooms which was great for our party of 7. Super, big , enclosed garden for the dogs. The house was situated right in the beautiful village of Clonbur and next door to the house was the proprietor's hotel which provided us with entertainment and food. Mr Lynch who owned both house and hotel was very friendly and helpful with any questions about the house. His staff were all very welcoming and friendly.

CLONBUR, COUNTY GALWAY

Cong 3.5 miles; Galway City 29.5 miles.

The traditional village of Clonbur is located between Lough Mask and Lough Corrib in County Galway. Offering a small selection of shops and pubs, it retains a distinctly Irish feel with its own unique character and charm. There are a number of places of interest to the visitor in the surrounding area, including Ross Hill Abbey, Ballykine Castle and Lough Coolin. For walkers and hikers, the imposing Mount Gable offers one of Ireland’s most scenic mountain walks, with the trail beginning less than 2 miles from Clonbur. The nearby village of Cong is well worth a visit and is famed as the setting for the John Wayne movie, ‘The Quiet Man’. It is also home to Ashford Castle with its magnificent architecture, fine dining and sprawling golf course. Loughs Corrib and Mask are world-renowned for trout and salmon fishing and boats and guides are available locally.
