Beautiful peaceful location
Waterside Cottage is in a stunningly beautiful spot. If you need the bright lights, forget it - no wi-fi, phone signals OK sometime but poets, writers, painters and those who appreciate the natural beauty of this corner of Connemara will love it.

Très bien situé mais...
Le cottage est situé en face de la baie de Cashel (Connemara). Belle vue depuis la maison. Elle est au cœur du Connemara, à 20 minutes de la jolie ville de Clifden où tous les commerces sont présents. Nous n'avons vu personne pour récupérer les clés qui nous attendaient dans la serrure. Quant aux aspects pratiques du gîte, nous avons été assez déçus. La douche d'une chambre a été signalée en panne dans un commentaire de 2022 et elle n'est toujours pas réparée. Pour une maison de 6 personnes, une seule salle d'eau est trop juste. L'abattant des WC était HS (réparé rapidement par un plombier). La cuisine est mal équipée : pas de cafetière électrique, une cuisinière toute rouillée hors d'âge, manque d'assiettes, pas de plat à tarte. Les français aiment cuisiner ! Le sèche-linge, indispensable dans ce pays, ne sèche pas vraiment. Autres soucis, une fenêtre de chambre ne jointe pas correctement, une tablette d'une autre est cassée et laisse passer l'air. Quand il fait 13° début juillet, c'est plutôt gênant. On a du allumer le chauffage. A mettre au crédit du gestionnaire, son intervention rapide pour solutionner le plus simple. Ce cottage pourrait être formidable si le propriétaire (américain) investissait quelques dollars. Nous louons depuis 40 ans chaque année, nous n'avons pas l'habitude de pinailler mais là, il y avait de quoi. Un grand merci à Brid, la femme de ménage, pour les scones tous chauds et la confiture en compensation de nos ennuis.

Très bel emplacement
Globalement notre avis est positif, car la vue est exceptionnelle et l emplacement de la maison est interessant pour découvrir la region. Par contre, nous avons noté plusieurs points qui mériteraient d être améliorés pour correspondre exactement à la desciption ainsi qu au prix demandé. La douche qui se situe dans l une des chambres ne fonctionnait pas et nous n en avons pas été informés. La douche de la salle de bain n etait pas propre ( traces de moisissures sur le sol ainsi que sur le carrelage des parois). La vaisselle n est pas suffisante ( 2 poeles seulement dont une est à jeter car inutilisable), la cafetière à poussoir meriterait d être remplacée ( rafistolage du filtre qui laisse passer le café ), seulement 8 assiettes ( pour 6 personnes c est trop juste), la cuisinière est également vraiment très ancienne et abîmée. Enfin un veritable salon de jardin sur le devant de la maison serait également un atout supplémentaire.

Gute Lage, alles sauber, unkompliziert
Insgesamt schöne Lage, nur leider kein direkter Wasserzugang wegen einem Zaun! Sehr sauber und gut ausgestattet. Sehr freundliche Hausvermierterin.
