Spacious and the kitchen is well kitted out for home cooking. Close to a few un-crowded beaches and lots of the attractions in Connemara. ##### Paschal N.

The views are magnificent. A big thank you to the owner. ##### Patricia This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucy P. 16 Jul 2023 #### Perfect One of the best rentals we have ever stayed in. Really superb views of the sea. Remote and quiet everything we needed in the kitchen, comfortable beds, lovely bathrooms too. Even solar hot water.

Lovely place to stay. No wi-fi, which is a plus as it made us relax more and have conversations. Fully functioning everything. Lots of kitchenware. Cleggan has a nice seafood restaurant which we visited quite often. Also went to Clifden for food and music, great. Weather wasn’t too good but did not detract from the stay. The Abbey outside Letterfrack is a must to visit. Ground great to walk around. Would highly recommend this holiday home. A little out of the way but there are lots of walks, beaches etc. Lovely.

Great solitude and scenery make it very special. To take it to the next level… 1. Stock the bathrooms with towels TP and paper towels for length of stay. We had to search for towels upon arrival after a long day of traveling. First breakfast would be perfect with baked goods and coffees. 2. Get WiFi for the house so guests can check weather, set navigation, make plans, research… 3. Supply a notebook with information on how appliances/heat/hot water/fireplace trash/recycle works. Recommend the best restaurants, places to buy food, where to have a pint. Let people know where they can run, walk, hike & visit the beach. Day trip recommendations, brochures would be helpful. Have a library with books on local/Irish history, local nature guides, fiction, nonfiction, maps, music cds, dvds…let guests write in a guest book. All of these suggestions are pretty standard customer services wherever you go. It saves guests a lot of time and energy. Next time we come we hope you’ll have these things in place! ##### Chris C.

We recommend this house. The area is very quiet and calm. You only hear birds and the waves... It would be great if there was basics in the kitchen such as oil, salt and pepper etc. But otherwise, everything was perfect. ##### Joëlle C.

We were able to witness several beautiful sunsets. Ideal location for anyone who enjoys walking, cycling, kayaking fishing etc. The house had every thing we needed and very friendly help near by if required. It's a small, but enjoyable walk to the nearest pub. Well worth a visit.

A lovely remote setting in the heart of Connemara, with wonderful views of the Atlantic from every window. This house is in a truly special setting. There was great walks in the area where one can really switch off. We just wish we could have stayed longer.

It was in immaculate condition and super clean - it felt like we were the first ones to ever use the bathroom it was so clean!! Tommie made sure everything was ok for us and even put up Christmas decorations for us in the house! Would definitely book again..... ##### Nicola H.

A peaceful location, but not too far from Clifden for dining out and shopping. The owner kindly took the time to ensure we had settled in. A very cosy cottage, and would definitely return! ##### angela p. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 4 Oct 2020 #### A little bit of Heaven We have stayed in many properties in Ireland and this property excelled our expectations. The property was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Everything that you need was provided. The owners - Tommy & Breda were very pleasant and helpful. The property was very cosy and comfortable. Property finished to a high quality and standard. The location is quite remote but exactly what we wanted. The area is very quiet, peaceful with breathtaking views. Sunrise and Sunsets were spectacular. So if it is peace and quiet that you are looking for then this is the place to go. We would highly recommend it and intend to return again. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 24 Aug 2020 #### A most practical and comfortable house in a beautiful setting I look forward to staying in Atlantic Sunset house again. The location is ideal,lots of beaches nearby for swimming . ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Oranmore Lodge Hotel, Conference and Leisure Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oranmore-Hotels-Oranmore-Lodge-Hotel.h1041847.Hotel-Information) > > [Menlo Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Menlo-Park-Hotel.h520812.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Galway.h21984.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel Sandy Road Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel-Sandy-Road-Galway.h1217426.Hotel-Information) > > [Connemara Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Connemara-Coast-Hotel.h83441.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Travelodge-Galway.h916560.Hotel-Information) > > [The Connacht Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-Connacht-Hotel.h16232.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Harbour-Hotel.h583248.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ardilaun Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-Ardilaun-Hotel.h518365.Hotel-Information) > > [Salthill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Salthill-Hotel.h2360434.Hotel-Information) > > [Nox Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Nox-Hotel.h10944527.Hotel-Information) > > [Galway Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Galway-Bay-Hotel.h106984.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Galway.h2166715.Hotel-Information) > > [Claregalway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Claregalway-Hotel.h2253316.Hotel-Information) > > [The G Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-G-Hotel-And-Spa.h1156121.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyde Hotel (Formerly The Forster Court Hotel)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Forster-Court-Hotel.h19115255.Hotel-Information) > > [Ross Lake House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oughterard-Hotels-Ross-Lake-House-Hotel.h115373.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hardiman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-Hardiman.h1604748.Hotel-Information) > > [Glenlo Abbey Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Glenlo-Abbey-Hotel.h4076.Hotel-Information) > > [Eyre Square Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Eyre-Square-Hotel.h2360371.Hotel-Information) > > [Galway Bay Sea View Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Galway-Bay-Sea-View-Apartments.h6724479.Hotel-Information) > > [Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Victoria-Hotel.h2360342.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballinasloe-Hotels-Shearwater-Hotel-Spa.h1717688.Hotel-Information) > > [Flannery's Hotel Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Flannerys-Hotel-Galway.h1993.Hotel-Information) > > [Clybaun Hotel Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Clybaun-Hotel-Galway.h1201417.Hotel-Information) > > [Imperial Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Imperial-Hotel.h973324.Hotel-Information) > > [The Western Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-Western-Hotel.h1707887.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel, Oranmore Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oranmore-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel.h200714.Hotel-Information) > > [The Galmont](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-The-Galmont.h660779.Hotel-Information) > > [Clifden Station House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clifden-Hotels-Clifden-Station-House.h473064.Hotel-Information)
