Location
1a Glynsk House is a detached cottage in the Galway countryside, four miles from the village of Carna. The house has two ground floor double rooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, and upstairs are two twin rooms. There are two shower rooms, one on each floor. Downstairs there is also a kitchen, and a spacious sitting room with dining area and open fire. Outside is ample off road parking, and a rear garden area with furniture. 1a Glynsk House makes a great base for enjoying the Connemara National Park, the Galway coastline, the pretty villages and towns or the lush green countryside of this beautiful region.
The small village of Carna lies on the shores of Galway Bay, overlooking Galway Harbour, in the scenic region of Connemara. Lying off the coast of Carna is St. MacDara's Church and Island, a notable holy place in west Ireland, and a site of pilgrimage and mass in July. The sailing crafts, the 'Galway Hookers' were made in Carna, as well as a small boat called the Currach, and the area is well known for the skilled boat makers who crafted them. There are still some working examples of the Galway Hooker in Kinvara's quaint harbour. There is great fishing in the area with Lough Mask and Lough Corrib close by, while Connemara National Park, home to the famous Connemara Pony and Kylemore Abbey are both within easy reach, providing great days out for all the family.
Towering cliffs stand next to vast stretches of golden sand, whilst vast mountain ranges cradle cool, low-lying lakes. The Galway region epitomises the term ‘great outdoors'; with fantastic walking and cycling and exhilarating water sports.
