Carmel's place is modern and nicely updated. There is a beautiful view out the window from the living room/kitchen. We enjoyed having two bathrooms and showers, even though one was small. The apartment is close to Connemara National Park and many beautiful beaches. We picked up groceries on the way out there so we didn't spend a lot of time hunting for a grocery store as it is a bit remote. Carmel was very helpful with tips and suggestions for what to see and also restaurants, etc. She had a fire ready to go when we arrived. Even though it was still August, it was definitely cool. The heating the apartment also worked very well. We had a nice stay in this beautiful area!
