About this property

Completely renovated former schoolhouse situated in a quiet and secluded woodland setting, just a short walk from the pier and foreshore

A charming former school house in a wonderful location… sitting on a small peninsula in a quiet spot on the northern end of Lough Corrib, just a short stroll to the pier and foreshore.

The property has been completely renovated and offers spacious accommodation for four with a couple of bedrooms, a comfortable sitting room and a well equipped kitchen. There’s even a furnished roof terrace for relaxing with an aperitif before dinner!

This is a beautiful and secluded area. Head into Cornamona 3½ miles for your nearest shop and pub. The village of Leenane, 13 miles away is situated in spectacular scenery at the head of Killary Harbour. A good place for stocking up on provisions and stopping off for lunch at the pub or one of the restaurants. Get out and about and explore this scenic coastline and visit Killary Harbour and Kylemore Abbey. This is a great base for discovering the spectacular scenery of Connemara with its many lakes, mountains and interesting and varied coastline and dark night skies.

There’s plenty of adventure on the doorstep too, hire a boat, go sailing, climbing or take to the saddle and explore this beautiful landscape horseback. There’s also excellent salmon and trout fishing on the Erriff and Delphi fisheries so we’re told!
