Many thanks to Kathleen, and this magical picturesque home in Oughterard, for the wonderful stay, I only wish we would have had a lot more time to stay and really explore your village . The room ovelooked a lovely river with a little red bridge, it created a mystical scene of serenity and peace. Certainly a great place to stay... More

Many thanks to Kathleen who runs the best B&B I've ever stayed in. Rooms large, breakfast excellent, grounds and house charming and I loved that I could wander downstairs and make myself a cup of tea when I felt like it. Great stay and very good value compared to some other B&B's in the area. Highly recommended. More

It was our first time to stay in a B&B in at least 5 years but the pictures of the house were too good to pass up. Our room was huge, comfortable and had a view over the river. It was perfect. Our host was very welcoming and breakfast the next morning was relaxed and plentiful. The house is a... More

I stayed here for just one night unfortunately. Welcoming and cosy with nice furniture and comfy bed. My room did not have an en suite but there was a bathroom right next door. The bath had an amazing high tech power shower but unfortunately so high tech I didnt have a clue how to use it without drowning ! It... More

We spent 3 nights here over Easter weekend. The house and its surroundings are beautiful and very peaceful. Kathleen and John were wonderful hosts. The beds were so comfortable!! Great location for visiting Galwy, Connemara and surrounding area. More

This place is amazingly beautiful! The location could not be better. Right beside a rushing stream and not far from the center of town. Very bright inside with lots of windows and wonderful accommodations! More

We spent three nights at the Waterfall Lodge B&B and would gladly return again. Our hosts, John and Kathleen Dolly, were warm, friendly, gracious, and welcoming. The breakfasts were wonderful. The first morning I enjoyed scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, then shifted to the scambled eggs and bacon. (I absolutely love Irish bacon!) There was a gorgeous four-poster bed in... More

The Waterfall Lodge is a beautiful home filled with gorgeous antique furnishings, with a pretty creek and waterfall right outside the house. It is a perfect central location to visit the Connemara area, including Kylemore Abbey, the town of Cong (of Quiet Man fame), and Ashford Castle (now a 5 star hotel). There are hidden roads nearby that are incredibly... More

We enjoyed a one night stay in this old house and appreciated it very much. The garden and the interior are both worth a visit, even if not staying, and the welcoming of our hosts was great. More
