Reviews of Hernon's Cottage
"Lovely homely warm house in Connemara near beautiful beaches and a half hour drive to Clifden. Very hospitable hosts that are near to answer any questions about the area or the house. We found it to be a very relaxing holiday."

"Staying here does literally feel like you are being welcomed into someone's home. The hosts greet you like old friends and the house has everything you could possibly need for a good holiday in the area. It is perfectly placed between Clifden and Galway and the scenery driving to either place is spectacular. The owner bringing round freshly baked and still warm soda bread was an absolutely lovely touch we won't ever forget. We'd love to come back here at some point."

"The owners of the property were fantastic. They made us feel welcome and our stay very comfortable. They also provided us a hand drawn map of places to eat and visit in the area which was very helpful. The house was well equipped with everything to make us feel at home. The location was great with a beach only 2 minutes away which was one of the nicest beaches I have ever seen."
