I spent a week writing/reading/watching season 6 of Game of Thrones in Brendan and Trish's crannóg and it was everything I had hoped it would be and more. I've never felt so close to nature, yet so at home. It is warm, clean and cosy, and has everything you could need, including a shop within walking distance and is only 5km from the ferry to the Aran islands in Ros a' Mhíl. Bus Éireann drops/picks up at the gate. Incredibly beautiful landscape and lovely home. I hope to re-learn Irish and come back here to stay again. Arachnophobes beware: there were a few spiders and the ones in Conamara are massive. They grew on me though. 9/10
