It is apparent that this is a second family home being offered as a vacation rental. The home has the kind of character that comes with having been "lived in." There are lots of windows and lots of books. A nod to mid century modern includes the red leather furniture and lamps in the family room attached to the kitchen. Our favorite room was the living area that included massage video game chairs, comfy seating, lots of windows in the attached conservatory, fireplace and a TV, which was never used.
The three downstairs bedrooms were roomy and comfortable with ensuite bathrooms and one family bathroom. Upstairs the whole second floor consisted of beds, bedrooms and two more shower bathrooms. This house could seriously sleep a lot of people! It is tucked up off the road and is private and gated. A 5-10 minute amble down the road brings you past a wonderful abandoned 2 story stone home with rock and stone fencing all around. A strong feeling of history and stories swirls around the property there. A few more steps past the stone house is a small shoreline on Lake Corrib.
One of the best things about this home is the property manager Phillip. He is funny, intelligent, personable, knowledgeable of the area and ready with lots of ideas and suggestions if you need them.
