"Ideal location, fantastic views."
We had a little problem, we contacted the owner and he, Sean, was able to sort it out without any fuss. Excellent service. Ideal location for us to visit everywhere we wanted to visit. Very friendly locals, good food and drink. We would go back again.

The property
A lovely, traditional terraced cottage, located opposite the harbour in the quaint village of Roundstone, County Galway.
Set over three floors, this Roundstone cottage provides comfortable accommodation, perfect for friends and family looking to discover this beautiful part of Ireland.
Complete with a spacious first floor open plan living area, this Roundstone cottage also features a roaring open fire ideal for relaxing in front of whilst watching the fishermen bringing in the day's catch to the pretty harbour.
This County Galway cottage is an excellent base for touring all this spectacular region has to offer.
Join the locals for a pint of the black stuff in one of the local pubs and sample traditional Irish music at its best, or take a trip to the market town of Clifden with its bustling shops and restaurants.
Walkers and hikers will adore the routes through the stunning Connemara National Park, with the Twelve Pins mountain range a particular highlight.
From your County Galway cottage you can also try your hand at scuba diving, deep-sea fishing or horse riding, or take a boat trip to Inishboffin Island.
The Aran Islands are also within easy reach, as is the cosmopolitan city of Galway.
For those who prefer a slower pace of life, the miles of unspoilt coastline won't fail to enchant and inspire; within driving distance are Gurteen and Dog's Bay beaches, and further afield is Ballyconneely beach.
A terrific Roundstone cottage in a superb location that you will want to return to again and again.
Where you’ll be staying
ROUNDSTONE, COUNTY GALWAY
Clifden 14.5 miles; Connemara National Park 25 miles; Galway 48 miles.
Roundstone, in the Connemara region of County Galway, lies on the western arm of Bertraghboy Bay. The entrance to Roundstone harbour is marked by a large stone, like an upturned bath tub, which is known as seals rock (Chloch na Ron) as seals like to clamber up onto it and bask in the sunshine. The bay itself is also often referred to as Roundstone Haven. Roundstone offers pubs, restaurants, cafés, shops and a children’s playground, plus there is a traditional Irish night in the summer and a number of festivals which take place throughout the year. Roundstone is full of historical and geographical points of interest, including the bell tower of the Franciscan Monastery, now standing in the Michael Killeen Park, and the remains of a monument to St Brendan on Inishnee, a small island in Roundstone Bay. A five-minute drive away are Gurteen and Dog's Bay beaches, plus attractions in the area include horse riding, deep sea fishing, hill walking and cycling. Just eight miles from Roundstone is the Connemara Golf Club and further afield there is great scenery to enjoy either on foot, bicycle or in the car. The lively town of Clifden has lots of interesting things to see, while the Connemara National Park is just a little further away and the city of Galway can be reached in an hour’s drive.
