Carrowmoreknock House | Quiet, romantic family cottage, shores of Lake Corrib, Connemara, Co Galway

4 Bedroom House in Carrowmoreknock, Oughterard

“Anam-Samh” (= “tranquil soul” in Irish) is a modern, comfortable and tastefully furnished 5-bedroomed family cottage with a conservatory and a living area of 200 square meters, idyllically situated on a secluded 2.5 acre site directly on the shores of Lough Corrib, surrounded by a very large Garden and its own woods at rear. As its name implies the house is an ideal place to get away from it all. With panoramic views of Lough Corrib and the Connemara mountains in the distance, the setting is breathtaking, peaceful and surrounded by nature. Relax and read in front of a cosy log fire; take a stroll through the surrounding countryside go fishing, hill-walking or biking through scenic Connemara or enjoy cinemas, theatre, traditional Irish music etc. It's all on your doorstep.
Out of the Guest Book: What a wonderful week we had! We enjoyed your beautiful house, beautiful country and very kind & helpful people. What a magical place! We will miss the birds, bunnies and other wild life around your lovely home, but we take home many new memories. 21. – 28. July 2007, the McMurry Family, Los Alamos USA *****
How lucky we feel to have chanced upon your lovely home on the internet and to have managed to book it for the week of the wedding of our nephew. It’s in such a beautiful location and we were lucky with the weather. That all in all made our stay really wonderful. 14. – 21. July 2007, Kathy Booth., London, UK
*****
Tranquil, peaceful and above all the calming scenery: Enough to recharge the batteries and more. The weather was very wet while we were here, but your house and the magnificent view gave us rest and made up for it, ten times over. Will definitely be back hail, rain or snow, but hopefully sun shine. 30. June – 7. July 207, the Jonston Family, Downpatrick Ireland

Summary: This property was perfect for me and my extended family. Both granddaughters were over the moon at having a room with a balcony overlooking the lake. All four adults found the bedrooms, community areas and kitchen to be a great value with enough space for everyone to find seclusion when needed, and ample room for group meals and other activities. We loved the area and quickly found our way throughout the region and many of the area attractions. This house is a pure gem and we will remember our stay for decades to come.

Summary: If you look for a quiet and beautiful place with a breathtaking view, this is the place to be. Very nice house full equipped for cooking. The perfect location for visiting Connemara or just fishing and angling.

Summary: The view is fabulous. The bathroom tiles are really nice. The sheets are left on the beds for you to make. The water was not even warm for evening showers, where as morning was better. No hot water for dishes.All sheets need to be replaced. Bees in upstairs room, broken light in master bath, very complex house systems to figure out. Home has well water. Location is somewhat remote but beautiful.

Summary: We had a brilliant time in a really comfortable lakeside house which had everything we needed. The location is great if you enjoy kayaking or paddle boards, but is only 30 mins from Galway and well place for Connemara, and the Aran islands all of which we enjoyed. We couldn't book great Irish weather every day but it didn't matter and we wish we could have stayed for longer.

Summary: on the shores of the lake surrounded by beautiful countryside and views over the lake. We swam and paddle boarded on the lake, and managed to get over to the other side from Knockferry. Plenty of room in the house for teenagers, although it was slightly restricted to walk anywhere. We found it very relaxing

Summary: Absolutely stunning location. Was great sitting in sun room every night looking out at loch corrib. Plenty of space for our group of 8 and 2 dogs. Could do with a bit of an update inside. Outside maintenance needing done. Windows very dirty. Road into property very overgrown and hard to find. No welcome pack. Dogs loved running about large garden. Overall positive experience but could have been better given price

Summary: Beautiful , well equipped house in a perfect location for visiting Connemara, Galway etc. Lots of information on things to do and detailed explanations of how to use all the equipment in the house. A perfect place to get away from it all. And, of course, if you like fishing, the house is on the shore of one of Ireland's most famous trout lakes.

Summary: Our family of four had a vacation booked in the area exactly two years ago at another property, and then COVID intervened in our plans. Fortunately, when travel opened up this property was available. As other reviews indicate, a great location and views, easy check-in and check-out, comfortable, and more than enough room to stretch out. We didn't have trouble finding the house, and the only negative was wondering if we had figured out the Irish recycling requirements!

Summary: I enjoyed my week down at Carrowmoreknock. I live in Dublin and have family in another part of Galway and was great to get to see them. I have two young dogs and it was great for them to have the freedom around the grounds and the Lough. It was also great to have family over.
