About this property

The perfect place to take a step back from it all

  • The cottage: Situated overlooking the Little Killary and Meelrea towering above is a charming stone cottage. This cottage offers peace and tranquility in ten acres of mountain terrain set in mature trees. The small bay below the cottage is used by local fisherman and is an ideal place to moor or anchor a small boat or negotiate the purchase of some fresh caught fish. The vast expanse of Glassillaun beach is 1.2km from the cottage, this is a world famous beach that has to be seen to be believed. and it is near the base for Scuba Dive West. Within walking distance are Lough Muck and Lough Fee, which are Salmon, sea trout and small brown trout lakes. You must have a licence to fish on these lakes.The nearest village with pub restaurant and hotel is in Tullycross 5.3km away and a shop and petrol station 6km away. The cottage may seem remote but you have every thing you need just a short drive away. Amenities such as the Renvyle House Hotel, Kylemore Abbey, Connemara National Park , Ocean and Country Museum.The cottage itself is cosy with lots of character but is not full of modern appliances. The clients who rent this cottage need to be people who enjoy the outdoor life and can entertain themselves without the distraction of TV. This makes it perfect for the couples or families who really want to escape the fast track of life
