We had a fantastic stay at Waterside Cottage and couldn’t have asked for a better base to explore Connemara. The cottage was spotless, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The location is beautiful and peaceful, with stunning scenery all around, while still being within easy driving distance of Clifden, Roundstone, Kylemore Abbey, and many of Connemara’s other highlights. It was the perfect place to come back to and relax after a day of exploring. It’s worth noting that there is no WiFi at the cottage, so guests should plan accordingly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return in the future. We’d highly recommend Waterside Cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable, scenic base for a trip to Connemara.

I've been going to Ireland for 30 years, we've always rented our homes. Renting this one for €900 we expected something wonderful. Big disappointment: range hood in the kitchen dirty and greasy, the laundry dryer difficult to open and closed because broken, the outside lights and in the shower that were not working and the shower in the room "en suite" out of service. So yes the landscape was there, the change of scenery too but the old and poorly maintained accommodation is certainly not worth this price! I am unhappy and disappointed because this is the first time in 30 years that I have made myself feel like this. I was charged for a location in the connemara that's all and the company Connemara Lettings takes advantage of the notoriety of the place to charge exorbitant prices for poorly maintained accommodations. For the record, no WiFi and the phone only goes to the back of the garden, for me it's a detail but I prefer to mention it. In short, very disappointed and I do not recommend this place
