Boasting stunning views of Galway Bay and a warming wood burner, the cottage is a mile from the charming village of Glynsk, where you’ll find a beautiful beach ideal for swimming, fishing, and surfing, along with fascinating rock formations.

After a day of outdoor adventures, this holiday retreat welcomes you with soothing views and ample space for your entire pack to unwind. Inside, you'll find two inviting lounge areas, each featuring a wood burner for that quintessential country cottage ambience. One lounge offers fabulous bay views and opens directly onto the garden.

Private, off-street parking is also available.

Located along the Wild Atlantic Way, spectacular coastal dog walks begin on your doorstep. In addition to its lovely beach, Glynsk hosts an annual sailing regatta in which unique Irish boats compete. On the opposite side of the bay, Roundstone (15 miles) offers a bustling harbour, thriving arts scene, and views of the Atlantic from the foot of Errisbeg Mountain.
