We stayed five nights in John's cottage and it was absolutely lovely! The surroundings and the views are amazing! The house is lovely decorated and very comfortable! The garden is great and it is lovely to see the sun go down in between the mountains and enjoy the sun untill later in the evening. Clifden and Roundstone are great little towns to visit and for hiking or cycling there are many options which you can read in the magazine about the area. This as been one of the best places we have stayed maybe even the best!
