We were two couples and one dog staying in connemara for a few days over new year and we really enjoyed this cosy cottage by a lake. It was very comfortable with everything we could need. The fire was lit and Geraldine was there to meet us and because of the time of year the house was decorated with a Christmas tree and decorations. The location was great for sightseeing and walks. We cooked up some great meals a d werewarm andsnug there. Also a great place to bring a dog with a fenced garden and hard floors everywhere. Highly recommend.
