Gowla Vacation Rentals

"Can't recommend enough. Beautiful location on Lough Corrib. We had a family reunion and the house had everything we needed for big dinners on the shores of the lough or in inclimate weather, eating indoors. Oughterard is very easy to get to from Galway on a new road that makes the journey quick. (about 30 mins) The town itself is lovely with nice food options for eating out. The interior of the house is very comfy. Especially the beds. The furniture is a bit dated but did not present any...

"Our family recently had the pleasure of staying in Atlantic way cottage and it exceeded our expectations. Eimear was a wonderful host. Communication was fantastic and she was so welcoming. The house itself was amazing. Spacious, clean and comfortable with everything required for our family of 9 with thoughtful touches throughout. A short drive to get the Ferry to the Aran Islands, which we just loved. We would definitely return to this gorgeous little retreat! 5/5"

"Debbie’s cottage was beautiful, comfortable and well appointed. We were warmly greeted upon arrival by Debbie and the resident cat, Lilly - an added bonus! The views from the cottage were exactly as pictured, and made more enjoyable by the neighborhood of sheep, donkeys and cattle. The cottage is on a quiet road by the sea, perfect for daily strolls . Debbie was more than helpful with dining and activity suggestions. The only thing that would make our stay better would have been staying 2 weeks...

"The property was in a beautiful location. Well kept, neat and tidy. It was well set up for four people and very roomy. I would definitely come back and stay."

"Everything was perfect for us to enjoy the area and drive into clifden for restaurants and pubs for traditional Irish music. The road is a bit narrow towards the house the last bit but we did it slowly. We also enjoyed great meals at the nearby Connemara sands hotel just near the house."

"Sunnybank House is exactly as described. Highlights for our group of 18 family and relatives include: evening gatherings around the two peat-burining fireplaces with a variety of Irish Whiskeys; a very short walk to the pubs and restaraunts in Clifden, having a chef cook a delicious dinner in our own kitchen for all of us to enjoy, sightseeing all around Connemara; golf at the Connemara Links course just 15 minutes away; and wonderful pub visits out in the country...especially Paddy Coynes pub...

"What an incredible and comfortable place. The views, property and region were stunning. Loved the cottage and its decor and the peaceful easy energy that surrounded us. We stayed eight days and enjoyed many day trips throughout the region. Plus several days simply being in the awe inspiring space watching the tides come in and flow out. Thank you for such a great place."

"Lovely house in a beautiful peaceful setting with fantastic views."

"The house was just as the description promised. The view was amazing! A little isolated but was perfect for relaxing after a day out exploring the area."

"Absolutely beautiful property perfect for large groups. Close enough to Galway and other destinations with the charm of the local village. Wonderful!"

"Great accommodations ! Spacious bedrooms with 4 bathrooms ! Great for a Family trip !"

"We enjoyed our time here and the location and view truly cannot be beat! To address some items mentioned in others reviews: When we got there there was a musty smell, as others have mentioned, but it did get better over our time there. The heat was off and it was extremely cold on our arrival, and I feel like living there and keeping it warmed up helped the situation. There is a small fishing operation off shore (3 rings) but in our opinion it doesn’t detract at all from the ambiance. It is...

"Best vacation ever!"

"Lovely location and comfortable house. Kitchen utensils and china needs an update though."

"As advertised….great place for the kids. Beaches were gorgeous a real Irish experience!"

"Outstanding property in a great location! The house is magnificent and the views are even better. There is plenty of room for everyone and a short walk to town with plenty of pubs, food, and music. The owner offers fresh eggs from the chicken coop on site! Just perfect! Newman’s bar is a must see when the music starts after 9."
