We spent a week in Brenda's lovely and spacious house outside of Oughterard. House is clean and modern, and is a good base for exploring Connemara and the west of Ireland. There are some nice shorter walks from the house to the lake.
Excellent kitchen with modern cooker and American style double fridge with ice maker. Shower pressure is very good. Comfortable beds and seating areas.
Sky + was very useful for recording and watching later, especially during the Olympics. WiFi speeds are excellent. We also got full use of the barbecue and outdoor seating area when the weather allowed.
The host is a pleasure to deal with. Communication with Brenda was always quick and easy, and she was extremely helpful and facilitation to any questions or requests we had.
Highly recommended.
