Our stay at Fough East was great! The house was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. We wanted to stay in the town that my mom grew up in and Fough East was perfectly located. It is walking distance to shops, restaurants, and bars and an easy drive to Galway City or other beautiful Connemara locations.

My family with four boys and my mom and sister just stayed here and we could not say more nice things not only about the home, the host or the village! Having everything so walkable and everyone so friendly made our first place we stayed in Ireland truly amazing! I highly recommend this home as you will instantly fall in love with everything around it. Worked great for a young family! Our boys lived the chickens, lamb and bunny too! And grab food from their butcher shop too! It was incredible!

With some friends we stayed at the beautiful Connemara Holiday Cottage. The house is as it appears in the photo and I would say even better. Warm and welcoming environments in a quiet area close to supermarkets, bars and pubs where we had an excellent dinner. Super helpful host. I would gladly return, super recommended!
