About this house rental

Swallow Cottage is luxurious 3 bedroom seafront stone/wood house with fantastic sea views from every room. The house is 15 metres from the sea with views of Galway, Connemara and the Aran Islands.
It is situated on the spectacularly beautiful Flaggy Shore, a national heritage site and one of the loveliest parts of the 'Wild Atlantic Way'. The spacious open living area has underfloor heating throughout the kitchen, dining room, the two bathrooms and lounge which also has a wood burning stove.

Our beautiful home has large french window/glass doors in every room with stunning sea views that open out into the garden just metres away from the ocean. Perfect to watch seals and dolphins in the bay and spectacular sunsets of Galway Bay with your BBQ.

Step outside the garden gate and a lovely sandy beach faces you. There are several family friendly sandy beaches in the area. A short walk along the coast is the highly rated seafront Linnanes Lobster Bar/Restaurant which serves deliciously fresh locally caught seafood and a great pint of Guinness. The local fisherman's wife sells fresh fish on the harbour just outside Linnanes.

General information. Swallow Cottage is located in the spectacular area of Ireland known as the Burren (irish meaning Great Rock) which is one of the finest examples of glacio limestone landscapes in the world. Formed 350 million years ago, the region is rich with historical and archeological sites. There are more than 90 megalithic tombs, dolmens older than 5600 years and ring forts including the exceptionally well preserved Caherconnell Stone Fort. It is also renowned world-wide for its remarkable diversity of plants and animals.

The Cliffs of Moher is one of the most popular attractions of the area as are the Aillwee Caves, the most famous of the many thousands of ancient caves beneath the limestone mountains.

The Burren also has a long history of traditional Irish music which is played in many of the pubs throughout the area particularly in Doolin.

Swallow Cottage is midway (15 minutes drive) between the lovely coastal villages of Kinvarra, Co. Galway and Ballyvaughan, Co. Clare. Both offer a great choice in shops, restaurants, pubs and farmers markets selling locally produced produce.

The area has several excellent golf courses including the world famous Lahinch links course.

The Enchanted Swallow Cottage was everything and more than I’d hoped for. Quiet, a bit remote, which I loved, but convenient to all the important sites. CLIFFS OF MOHER, ARAN ISLANDS etc. Shopping at the help yourself veg box up the hill renewed my faith in humanity. Find out for yourself! Do be careful with the garbage. Ireland is very strict and God Bless them for it! Hope to return next year, and visit the friends I made this year. Truly Enchanted Thank you, Robert and Ruth

Loved our quiet and off the beaten path stay near the village of New Quay. House has beautiful grounds and views but is in need of upgrades to the furnishings, bed linens and towels.

Robert’s house was perfect for our weeklong stay! This was our first time in Ireland, so wanted to see some sights but also have down time with the family. A day trip to Aran Islands (ferry from Doolin) was a highlight, bit
