Letterfrack Farm Cottage in village on a farm beside Connemara National Park

Beautiful cosy house in perfect location.

Great location, short walk to shops and restaurants. Stunning views of the mountains, near to beautiful beaches, kylemore abbey and lots of walks in the Conemara national park. Spacious house with 6 bedrooms, large kitchen and sitting room. Comfy couches and smart tv.

The beds are very old and need new mattresses. The stove in the sitting room has a broken glass door so it can't be used. The heating pipes are very noisy at night, trapped air I think. Kitchen could do with a new set of 3 saucepans - small, medium, large. There's a gigantic one that hardly fits on the cooker and a large one. Some of the towels are threadbare. Kitchen hasn't any basic condiments. Lots of little things, that because of the good value you overlook. If you're going for a week pack ALL your essentials, including a decent saucepan, pillow and towel and you'll have a lovely time. Host doesn't communicate with you once you've arrived and got the key.

Nothing

On our arrival we immediately noticed the property appeared run down but, it's an old cottage, so we opened the door and were immediately hit by the musty smell. The heating was on full blast, despite it being 22 degrees outside and I suspect this was an attempt to cover the musty odour. On entering the property we realised it was in an exceptionally poor state of repair. Sofa's were sagging with stained covers, mattresses and pillows were old and poor quality. There were holes in walls, multiple cracks in bathroom fittings, dirty windows, and the whole handrail/spindals on the staircase literally moved away from you as you held the handrail. Bedding/towels were so old and worn there was no way I would have wanted to use them. I throw away bedding and towels in better condition. I don't believe there was anything in the property less than 30 years old. I will acknowledge that the property was clean but as the saying goes, you can't polish a turd. The condition of the property was so poor that we left immediately and found alternative accommodation. I requested, through Booking.com an immediate cancellation and refund which the owner agreed to. When I contacted the following day to follow up on the refund, the own refused saying that she didn't know we'd left, which is nonsense as I had messaged to complain, stated we were looking for alternative accommodation, and then formally requested a cancellation, which she acknowledged within minutes and made the offer of a refund. She then offered a partial refund on condition that we didn't post any reviews/pictures, which I declined. I suspect others have agreed, which is why this accommodation seems to have better reviews than it deserves. My advice would be to find somewhere else.

Lovely spacious property within 5 mins walk to the nearest pubs, restaurants & shop. The property was old but clean & comfortable.

The garden furniture in particular the table was not in good condition, it needs sanding & re-painting. This is a simple & cheap fix that would have made a difference

Brilliant location and very spacious property

A bit tired- even towels were threadbare and only one hand towel and one bath mat between two bathrooms. Certain items missing from kitchen - eg oven gloves, frying pan etc but lots of other things that you don’t really need.

Uno dei 2 wc non scaricava bene (quello al piano superiore) inoltre mancavano delle prese comode vicino ai letti soprattutto per caricare i cellulari

Emplacement idéal pour découvrir le Connemara. Maison spacieuse ,bien équipée, au calme. Arrivée autonome ,proche centre et départ randonnée Diamond Hill.

Manque juste gel douche salle de bain mais sinon parfait !

Superb location for Connemara park , pubs and shop. Spacious house with cosy rooms. Kids loved the animals.

It is well located in the Connemara National Park

The house is big and was not very well cleaned. The bathroom from the first floor had a weird smell. The owner never replied to my messages, only send information about the keys, but ignored what I wrote.
