Extremely helpful. I was travelling with my family and my car broke down on the Cliffden road on a cold night. Michael and Maria were in contact with me all the time and Michael drove to us and collected my family. We are very grateful for their help. 100% recommend staying here. Excellent breakfast, lovely house and beautiful view.

Michael and Marie were so very helpful with our group of 14. The rooms were large and could fit us all comfortably. Breakfast was fabulous. We are sorry for the warm weather we brought - worst heat wave since 1976, the year our family all visited for the first time. Loved sitting out in the yard and enjoying the cool breeze off of Lake Corrib.

There was a musty smell throughout the house, maybe due to poor ventilation and/or inadequate heating. The decor was dated.
The hosts were very friendly and the breakfast was excellent. The location was great with fabulous views of the lake

Disappointing
- • Leisure trip

The whole property smells dusty, we had to keep the windows open at all times to remove the smell. The rooms are outdated, everything is old, the shower has very low water pressure and it is difficult (or nearly impossible) to set the right temperature. The wifi is not usable, it takes ages to load a simple website, I used my 4G connection instead. The breakfast is greasy and we were still enjoying our cereals when the eggs, bacon were brought to our table. It gave us the impression that they wanted us out of the breakfast room as fast as possible. The whole property needs to be renovated and then it can turn in a first class B&B.
Large room, extraordinary view on the Corrib lake, peaceful location. The owners are nice, but are not interested in giving advice or asking what you are going to do that day.
