We very much enjoyed our stay at Castle House B&B and would recommend it to anyone staying in the Connemara region. We thought the location was perfect, as it was quiet and set apart from the touristy hubs yet was accesible to all the places we wanted to see in the area. Each room has absolutely amazing views of ocean and mountain — I can’t describe just how beautiful the view was. The rooms had an old fashioned aesthetic but were not “old” — the en suite bathroom had all new features. Everything was in good shape. The B&B has so much history and John is willing to share that history as well as countless suggestions of what to do in the area. The local pub (1-2 minute drive or 10 minute walk) was delicious and also steeped in history. Hospitality is everything and we felt very welcomed at John’s B&B. Full Irish breakfast plus yogurt, cereals, etc was served every morning. If you find yourself in the Connemara region, stay here! You won’t be disappointed.
