About this property
Very Secluded Irish House with beautiful views
Two story house - parts of it are very old - located in very beautiful part of Ireland. Entirely secluded, located up a small windy road. Overlooks Lough Corrib with southerly views down to Galway.
It has access to the lake, and you really need a car although there are bikes provided.
Pet friendly, there are two double bedrooms and another single room. All three rooms have lovely views.
The bathroom and kitchen are modern, the kitchen has a pine table that can seat six, there is another dining table in the large reception room.
There is a wood-burning stove in one of the receptions, a working fireplace in the other.

About the host

Why they chose this property
The property dates from the early 1800's - it is not a 'grand' house - it was a farmhouse until the 1960's. Unusually for houses of this type and period it has very wonderful views down the lake and on a very still night you can see in the lights of Galway, thirty miles south, in the distance.
It is extremely secluded, is on what is referred to as the 'South Lake" of the Corrib, it is visible from the lake but not from the road. You approach the house by means of a private and very 'windey' road.
The house faces almost fully South, every room is full of light with clear views from all of the bedrooms. Downstairs there is a modern eat-in kitchen, with a Neff oven, Miele dishwasher, induction hob and hood. There is a large comfortable sitting room with a Wood stove, and a charming 'parlour' with an open fire. The kitchen and sitting room have floor to ceiling windows to maximise the view, all the downstairs rooms have tables large enough for dinner parties of up to eight.
Upstairs there is a modern bathroom with electric shower and bidet. There are two double and one single bedrooms and lots of towels, duvet covers, rugs and comforters in the world's largest 'hot press' (airing cupboard). There is a laundry room with new washing machine and drier on this floor and this room has a Pilates reformer and weights also.
Outside there is a woodshed full of dry wood for the stove. There is also a shed - with another washing machine and drier, sink and WC - where you can store rods and fishing gear and which has a metal table on which you can gut your catch.
The house is full of books, and the owner spends many mornings dipping into these and of course looking at the changing sky...

What makes this property unique
The nearest village is Cornamona, where there is a very well-stocked village shop, and a pub, O'Malley's. In the next village there is a small supermarket and two excellent pub-restaurants. The nearest swanky restaurant is at Ashford castle which is eight miles away!
Galway city is one hour's drive. Galway is a very woke town, lots of great restaurants, theatre, music, bars, shops.
The most beautiful remote beach - Glassilaun - is 45 minutes' drive.
We are lucky to have access to a couple of excellent chefs who are available to provide catering on request for parties of up to eight.
