Christmas in Ireland

5 of 5
Submitted: April 22, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
My Fiance and I stayed here for 3 nights over Christmas. We had the little apartment on the side which included a beautiful bedroom and en suite bathroom as well as a fully equipped kitchen and a really cozy living room. The apartment itself was immaculate and also decorated for Christmas for us! Riona went out of her way to welcome us and made sure we were taken care of the whole time. The location was fabulous for short trips around the Connemara area, I'd definitely recommend a car! The views were stunning in every direction.

Cosy place

5 of 5
Submitted: March 11, 2012 Stayed: September 2011
Bru Na Mara is a very nice place for enjoying the sea, the air and the surrounding beautiful nature of Connemara. It is a beautiful and cosy location at the end of a little road. The seaview with some little isles is salving.
We felt very comfortable and being welcomed by Riona. Her information helped us to discover local places and to plan day trips in Connemara. We liked walking along the coastline behind the house and loved it beeing sometimes guided by her cute dog. We liked the landscape and the atmosphere very much, especially the bog with the sheeps, the coastline and the mountains. We enjoyed the daytrips to the Island of Inishbofin and a walk on Diamond hill or to some sandy beaches and also to Galway-City.
We appreciated cooking at home and to buy and taste the local products and also to go out to Pups and to enjoy the delicate seafood.

Staying there gave us great impressions!

Stay Experience

5 of 5
Submitted: January 20, 2012 Stayed: December 2011
A very nice place to stay. Very quite and picturesque. The hostesses are very hospitable. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Wi-fi is available. Probably, it is a little bit hard to find the way to the pier if you are traveling by the car.
Very highly recommended!

Bru Na Mara: My Favorite Place in Eire

5 of 5
Submitted: July 31, 2011 Stayed: June 2009
I agree with all has been said in the reviews and don't want to repeat anything.-Having been here with my family in 1973(!) already and 5 times again since then I love the place, feel at home with the Connolly - Family. And I love the rough weather. " It is a soft day today" I heard when it had been raining. A few hours later the sun was very hot and we went to the beach close by. I loved to be shipped to the MacDarra Island by boat or stay at the harbour and listen to the quietness. Or walk - the last time with by own bike- around. When I had been here in 2009 after a long break the only thing I have missed was the smell of the turf - fire like in former times, already when you came to Rosslare by ferry-boat.
