The property
Overlooking Lough Mask and 5 miles from the village of Clonbur, is this attractive detached cottage. The elevated position of this cottage guarantees breathtaking panoramic views, and is conveniently situated near the boundary of Galway and Mayo making it ideal for a family gathering or group of friends looking to explore these two beautiful areas of Ireland. With six bedrooms split over two levels, this cottage allows for flexible sleeping arrangements, with a mixture of double, twin and family bedrooms, as well as five of the bedrooms having en-suite facilities for extra comfort. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking tasty meals, or rustling up a picnic to take out for the day. The cosy sitting room enjoys fantastic views over the Lough and is the perfect place to relax after a busy day spent exploring the area. Sunny mornings can be spent sat outside, enjoying a cup of coffee and breathing in the fresh country air. Just a short drive from the cottage takes you to the traditional village of Clonbur, where you can pick up some shopping in the supermarket, or pop to one of the local pubs for a quick pint! Just a bit further afield, you will find Connemara where you can take in the spectacular views, visit traditional villages and plenty of walks to suit most abilities. Take a day trip out to Galway City where you can walk the medieval cobbled streets, spend an afternoon looking through the craft shops, and why not stop for lunch in one of the many restaurants - you’ll be spoilt for choice! For a peaceful holiday in a beautiful location, this cottage is the ideal choice.
