our week in Bru Na Mara

MnM's Dijon, France
Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent one week in Bru Na Mara and it was simply... fabulous! The cottage is located near a very lovely and quiet pier, an ideal location to enjoy real Irish life and also an ideal starting point to visit the Connemara. The house is big, very clean, spacious, ideally furnished for a family. Riona – the owner – is a very lovely person, warm and welcoming, and her knowledge of the Connemara was of great help for not loosing time and go directly to the interesting places. Additionally, we had the chance to be there for the St MacDara’s festival, a one-day celebration characterized by traditional Galway hookers regattas, which was definitively the most marvelous day of our holidays, given that it was for us an incredible opportunity to spend a unique moment among Irish families.. Unforgettable! In few words: if you look for a house in Connemara, do not look for elsewhere, and go directly to Bru Na Mara, you will not regret it!

Bru na Mara Cottage

stanislas Marseille
Review Submitted: September 3, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
A lovely cottage in a complex of 4 houses, near carna in the west of connemra. It's a lovely place just in front of the sea, with calm and a small garden. It's perfect to explore the beautiful land of connemara with a car or for relaxing in a peacefully country.
The owner is really very sympahtic and will help you to enjoy your holyday.
