Anne and Hugh could not have been more accommodating or welcoming. Our family of 2 adults and 4 twenty-something kids were blown away by the house itself and the property, and the convenient location. I had high hopes for our time in Cong, but they were eclipsed by the actual experience...starting with Anne and Hugh's home. We were torn between 'going and seeing' and 'staying and exploring'! Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. Enough Said! The kids kayaked, I fished - IN IRELAND! The town of Cong is just a 5 minute walk from the house, but you'd swear you were miles from anywhere. It felt like a beautiful sanctuary of peace. Cong itself was delightful to discover and the location was ideal for exploring the dramatic Connemara coast/Kylemore Abbey and of course, Ashford Castle which is practically in the backyard. Points further south- Galway/Cliffs of Moher were easily done in a day. And, the Cong Holiday Let was THE PERFECT home to come back to. Can't say enough about this haven.
