Moyrus

Hiding amongst the grassy hills of Connemara, this single-storey, traditional cottage is an ideal choice for a small family plus one canine companion seeking a nature getaway by the coast. The wooden ceilings, sociable open-plan living space and garden offer a tranquil base while exploring the surrounding beaches, coastal trails and quaint towns.

Inside, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with neutral tones and bold printed furnishings, is cosy and well-organised. The ‘L’-shaped kitchen has wooden cabinets and dark surface tops which surround the wooden dining table with seating for four. On the opposite side of the room, you’ll find a sofa and two armchairs beside a wood burner-effect electric fire. All three bedrooms are comfortable and bright – consisting of a double and two singles. Completing the interior of the property is a family shower room. Outside, you will find a garden with a lawned area and a patio with furniture.

Unwind in the wild countryside of County Galway during your stay in Moyrus. Take Fido for a stroll around lakes which are scattered through the countryside and within 1.5 miles. Spend a day at the golden sandy shores of Moyrus Beach (less than 1 mile) and follow the scenic walking trails along the rugged coastline or around Loch a’Mhuilinn (2 miles). If you’re up for an adventure, you can drive along the causeway to reach Mweenish Island (5 miles) which boasts powder-white sandy beaches. Or head to Carna (2 miles) for a meal out at an independent eatery.
