The cottage is completely equipped with everything you need for a short or longer stay (even with a cuddly elderly irish setter and 3 also cuddly cats, that love to be hugged and feeded ;-) but all are not obtrusive). Very calm situated with tremendous views, everything works well. Be aware that the smoke detector is VERY sensitive (we recommend to use the toaster device under the kitchen hood). Recommendation: make the 4 loops of Connemara (of course incl. Kylemore Abbey, Cliffs of Moher and the Burren - selfspeaking!). Clifden is a nice place and we felt everybody as friendly and helpful. And that´s of course also valid for the real superhost Carmel: very friendly, not obtrusive at all, very helpful, obviously good-humoured, and last but not least good-looking. Talking seriously!
