"He loved all wild and solitary places, where we taste the pleasures of believing what we see is boundless as we wish our souls to be." Percy Bysshe Shelley. Costelloe Lodge in Connemara is an Edwardian Country Residence with views overlooking the Twelve Pins Mountain Range, the Atlantic Ocean and the Casla River. A property steeped in history in a stunning location and capable of accommodating up to 18 people.  This house was originally designed by Edwin Lutjens for Bruce Ismay the Chairman of the White Star, the company which owned the Titanic ship. As a keen angler, this beautiful part of Connemara was Ismay's chosen retreat following the sinking of the ill-fated Titanic. Landscaped gardens originally designed by Gertrude Jekyll offer a stunning palette of colour to the estate with all the flora and fauna having been carefully selected to complement Connemara's wild and natural beauty. SInce purchasing the property, the owners of Costelloe Lodge have lovingly restored this stunning home true to its original Edwardian Heritage and its former glory. First Floor There are 8 bedrooms altogether in Costelloe Lodge: 4 x kingsize bedrooms 1 x double bedroom 2 x double bedrooms with an added single bed 1 x twin bedroom (2 single beds)  4 of the bedrooms are ensuite and the other bedrooms have a shared bathroom between two bedrooms.   Ground Floor Breakfast Room Large Reception Room Drawing Room Dining Room Sun Room Games Room Cloakrooms Car Parking areas and three garages This is a perfect house for a large group of people as there are plenty of private places to spend time as well as larger rooms such as the main sitting room and the dining room when you all want to spend time together. Guests can swim in the tidal river to the rear of the property - a big hit with familes!
