Check in was very easy, as was check out. We had some trouble figuring out things like electricity - which works differently than in the States - but the owners were extremely responsive.
Super location but kitchen is a mess and smells damp.
The location is wonderful in walking distances to the lake. Within 30 minutes you can reach Westport or Ballinrobe (shopping), Claremorris is 40 minutes and Galway just over one hour away. The clowe by pub (Paddy's Bar) is only open on Sundays.The status of the house:Upstairs and the ground floor bedroom with ensuite bathroom has been updated/renovated recently. The dining area and living room are functional.In general the house feels damp and needed lots of airing.The kitchen and utility room are in a real mess.Kitchen: ALL plates, glasses, pots, pans, cuttlery or kitchen tools were sticky or durty and needed cleaning before usage. The fridge does not cool properly, the microwave is getting hot (externally) and switching off after short time in use. A BBQ is available but we did not use in the end, after lifting the lid.The house could be a wonderful place, if the hygiene level and the state of the kitchen and facility room would be acceptable.
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus ist etwas Ă€lter aber sauber. Als wir HandtĂŒcher nachgeordert haben, wurden diese zeitnah zur VerfĂŒgung gestellt. Die nĂ€here Umgebung und der Ausblick vom Haus sind phĂ€nomenal. Wir wĂŒrden das Haus erneut buchen.
Wir haben den Aufenthalt in dem gemĂŒtlichen und gut ausgestatteten Haus sehr genossen. Insgesamt ist das Haus jedem zu empfehlen, der Ruhe und einen guten Ausgangspunkt fĂŒr den eher rauen Westen sucht, und lĂ€ngere Anfahrtswege an die KĂŒste nicht scheut. Die Seelage und die Seeblicke sind jedoch einmalig.
The property had a beautiful view, but property covered with glies
Overall the property was generally clean and basic. Alot of cobwebs (inside & out) and flies (dead and alive). The stairs to 3 bedrooms upstairs was unsafe, too steep and carpet nails and rips were dangerous throughout the house. The central heating was only warm upstairs and bearly tepid downstairs. The ensuite shower down stairs was modern, but smells of blocked & dirty drain and also had very poor water pressure.
Overall we would not recommend the accommodation due to safety of the stairs.
