Loch an Eala cottage is on an elevated site south facing overlooking Salt lake and the Atlantic ocean and has extensive views of Roundstone bog and hill. It has a large private garden with BBQ and patio furniture. It is situated just about a 10 minute walk from centre of Clifden town which has a wide variety of shops pubs, and restaurants. It is an ideal location for exploring Connemara and walkers and cyclists can access the Greenway which passes by entrance to property.

Clifden, the capital of Connemara, is a famous holiday destination. People come here to enjoy the spectacular scenery on the Wild Atlantic Way, the wide range of interesting shops ,restaurants and pubs and interesting places to visit. We would recommend a visit to Kylemore Abbey, Connemara National Park and a trip to Inis Boffin island among the many attractions available. For those interested in outdoor activities there is a wide available - hiking in the mountains, horse riding, fishing, water sports, and Connemara Championship Golf course.
