The ancient spirit
The West of Ireland is one of the most scenic parts of the world where magical energy welcomes you to get away from day-to-day hustle and bustle.
Maumtrasna Bay is located on the borders of Connemara in Joyce's Country. The unspoiled wildness and sheer remoteness bring peace and tranquility in this beautiful part of the world. Let yourself drift off in daydreaming in this little paradise.
Each year seasonal birds such as swans, the cuckoo, swallows, wild geese and lapwings come for their annual breeding and nesting. And of course not to forget the thousands of lambs introducing the annual return of spring. Although remote, the valley is nestled in the centre of adventurous activities and touristic attractions.
Its unique light will mark an unforgettable experience in your heart.
As a professional team we complete the whole package with a warm welcoming and showing around the area. And of course we provide you unique accommodation where all your worries will feel miles away enjoying the peace and quiet of surrounding nature.
All cottages are nestled on the shores of Lough Mask which make them a haven for fishing, swimming and kayaking.
Relax under a gentle sun, take off for historical castles and towns to see or go on adventurous trips with boats, bikes or horses.
Explore the countless secluded beaches like White strand, Silver Strand, Dog's Bay or Glassilaun beach and stride along the numerous lakes and mountains.
Rewind the evenings accompanied by wild animal's orchestra to end with a million stars night sky.

We had such a lovely time at Steve's place. The cottage is super cosy, clean and the breakfast had such a nice touch. The cottage is situated in the most beautiful valley and Steve gave us a map of things to see and do. There's no signal at all there but that's kind of what we wanted, a break from our phones!

Steve's place is amazing, it's exactly as described and it's in the most incredible setting. He gave us use of two bikes to explore the area of which there's loads to see, plenty of hillwalking and sightseeing. Steve is a lovely host, he makes you feel at home and is really a nice guy. Steve's accomodation is a real example of everything that's good about Airbnb. If you're considering booking this place, stop considering and book it!

Accueil très chaleureux et amical ! Maison atypique à la déco très personnelle et originale. Une vraie parenthèse !

Steve is a great guy, he welcomed us to his fantastic Cottage with a smile and great stories about everything and nature in particular. The day after he gave us great tips of things to see and do in Connemara for one day. The location is fantastic and indeed heavenly. I think 5 star is very low for this place! We shall definitely try to come back!
