Spellbinding sea views and an immense sense of peace and tranquillity are what’s on offer in this County Galway cottage, inviting you to truly unwind with your loved ones around you – four-pawed pal included, naturally. Bring a doggo along to explore the rugged coastline and sprawling countryside of this endearing place, before heading back to this traditionally styled cottage to put feet (and paws) up to relax. Hosting eight guests and one dog, right by the water’s edge, you’re assured a marvellous stay here, filled with endless adventures at nearby outdoor hotspots.
Boasting country-cottage fixtures, fittings and textures, this charming holiday home offers a step back in time yet has been thoroughly modernised to provide all the appliances and creature comforts needed to truly relax. Enjoy the sociable kitchen/diner, hearing the pitter-patter of paws as you move between the two. In the dining room, picture windows boast views of the Mweelrea Mountains to enjoy during mealtimes. An open fire and a TV/DVD add a cosy atmosphere to evenings in the lounge, and you’ve also got your decked terrace with plenty of field space around it for evenings spent enjoying the sunshine. Ample private parking completes the property’s exterior, whilst inside, three bedrooms and two bathrooms add comfort and convenience.
Let Fido lead the way through the vast Irish countryside, sniffing out critters and searching for the very best stick with every step. The mighty Connemara National Park is just 6.5 miles away, boasting acres of footpaths and nature trails to hike and explore. Try your hand (or paw) at the Diamond Hill Hike (8 miles), a highlight of Connemara’s Twelve Bens mountain range, or trek along the idyllic shoreline of Kylemore Lough (8.5 miles). After a long hike, embrace some good canine-friendly craic at a local pub in the town of Clifden (15 miles).
