We spent a lovely week in this cottage as our base for touring Connemara.. It was really well equipped with a lovely cosy stove which we used every night. The gardens were beautiful. I think the addition of an electric shower with be good though.

Dún na Rón is the perfect cottage for a couple to 'get away from it all' and is a perfect base for exploring Lough Corrib and Conemara.. The hosts are extremely helpful and friendly. The cottage is spotless and cosy. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet holiday.

The cottage was in a really beautiful part of Galway.. It was central for touring the area and then a fantastic quiet, secluded, peaceful and tranquil cottage to which to return . Collen, the host, was very nice and helpful. It was a delightful Irish cottage with all the modcons. It is ideal for touring or just relaxing in quiet and solitude.

Lovely location and really liked the cottage, the owners are exceptionally friendly bringing us fresh eggs from their chickens and the latest area information.. The only down side was the low pressure from the shower and wi-fi for those that like it would be a nice option.

Sweet little cottage, vintage decor, very clean.. Hosts were very friendly - Colleen even bought us over a sponge cake and custard when she had been baking during the week! Pretty well equipped but the kitchen isn't big so don't get too ambitious. Very quiet and private with lovely wooded garden for you to wander in.

What a fabulous little cottage, we really enjoyed our stay at Dun na Ron.. We were given a warm friendly welcome from Coleen & Carmel and got great hospitality. Very private, quiet and peaceful. If winding down and relaxing are what you need this is the perfect place. With Galway and Connemara short trips away and an abundance of other more local attractions. Dun na Ron ticked all the right boxes for us.

Lovely stone cottage in a great situation.. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet yet just 2 minutes from Oughterard. Colleen and Raymond the owners are on hand to offer advice and help without being in any way intrusive. We really enjoyed our time there.

What a wonderful place to stay, full of charn and character with all the modern amenities! Colleen was a wonderful host greeting us on the first day with fresh eggs and homemade marmalade (yum!) She was available when we needed her but we were able to enjoy the seclusion otherwise. My son very much enjoyed the games and toys that were in the cottage and exploring the generous yard. Location was perfect within walking distance from the lake and a 2 minute drive from town. Fantastic vacation!

We had a lovely holiday here,despite the weather (Storm Emma).. The owners could not have been more accommodating. They allowed us to stay an extra night (FOC) due to the weather conditions. They found plenty of things to occupy our two young children whilst we were unable to leave the property. Delicious cake and marmalade left for us on arrival. A perfect, cosy cottage for a lovely Irish getaway. Great base for exploring (when the weather allows).

This small little cottage offered an amazing experience in Ireland.. It was quiet and peaceful. The grounds of the cottage were beautiful as well. Colleen and her family were very nice and attentive to anything we needed.

This was by far our best cottage experience out of four separate weeks on our month long trip to Ireland.. We actually lived in a part of Irish history down to the little details, lovingly preserved and cared for by owner Collen. Quiet, yet easy to get to village and Connemara countryside. We had a delightful week at Dun Na Ron and highly recommend this property.

Our two-week vacation in Dun na Ron was one of the best we ever had: The house and gardens are absolutely beautiful and we felt at home the moment we arrived. The owner, greeted us very warmly. We could have spent the whole holiday just enjoying this very special, enchanted place, but we also went to see a lot of local sights, which is actually very easy from the cottage. We hope to come back to this great place soon! Thank you!
