This 100 year old cottage was the perfect place to start our 10 day trip in Ireland. Though it is not in the city center it is a very short drive to town and a great location to visit sites in the surrounding area plus we perfer to stay outside of the city centers and never worry about parking. The cottage itself is vey quiant. It has all the amenities needed to include items for a continental breakfast. There is a sitting area just outside the front door to sit and enjoy coffee or a glass of wine while enjoying the scenery. The owner is very communicative, available and especially accommodating. When we couldn't find the cottage Aine had her mother come to town and take us to the cottage directly from the town. Please take note, it was user error on the GPS aspect. The coordinates worked perfectly once we knew what we were doing. I would highly recommend this cottage for a stay in the Clifden area and all its surrounding beauty.
