Cottage in Renvyle
3 bedroom, 2 bathroom
Sleeps 8 People
€400 - €720 Per Week

Large single storey cottage on the sea side of the road overlooking Clune Sands (where the races took place in the film ‘The Quiet Man.’ Also known as Lettergesh Beach). Stupendous views over the islands and the Atlantic Ocean from all main rooms, and to Mt. Mweelrea from the side windows of the cottage. Mains water and electricity. Cooking by Kosangas. Immersion heater for water heating. Electric storage heating throughout the house. Drainage by Septic tank. Open fire in sitting-room.

Attractively furnished and suitable for use winter and summer as it is well stormproofed.

ACCOMMODATION: Entrance vestibule (for coats, boots, etc.) leading to Hall. Off this there is a small dining room looking out to the sea. Large living room leading to a glassed-in area (greenhouse) which is pleasant for sitting in on sunny but chilly days, and also useful as extra play space for children. Double bedroom (twin beds can be used as 2 singles or 1 double, sleeps 2) with washbasin, shower and WC en suite. Twin bedroom (sleeps 2); ‘Nursery’ containing a set of bunk beds (I.e. 2 full-sized bunks) and 2 single beds (sleeps 4); cot if required. There’s another washbasin in this room; good cupboards throughout. Kitchen with Kosangas cooker and range of fitted cupboards, microwave oven, double sink and drainer. Pantry off containing large refrigerator with freezer compartment and a washing machine. We do not have a dishwasher or a T.V. Bathroom with bath and washbasin; separate W.C. All cutlery and crockery is provided. Duvets and pillows are on the beds.

BED LINEN IS AVAILABLE AT A CHARGE OF €55.00 PER LETTING. YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN TEA TOWELS, TOWELS, BATH MAT ETC.

Water heating is by electric immersion heater; There are night storage heaters in the main rooms and an open fire in the living room. Electricity is additional to the rent and you should read the meters in the entrance vestibule on arrival and departure and let me have a cheque for €0.45 per unit when you return the keys please. We have a washing machine but no dishwasher. There is also a bagwash service at the dry cleaners in Clifden and in the summer the local stores set up a laundry service. Enquire locally as the venue can change from year to year.

OUTSIDE is a garage, fuel shed and workshop. Turf for the fire is obtainable from Lettergesh East (½ mile) or Tully Cross (3miles) or ask my caretaker.

Benchoona is simply but comfortably furnished (carpets throughout).

A CAR IS RECOMMENDED as the bus service is only available once a day in the Summer and weekly in the Winter. The roads are all right for cycling, but hilly along the coast. It is good walking and hill-wlking country.

Fishing can be arranged nearby; Golf is 8 miles south of Clifden; Tennis is at the Renvyle House Hotel (which has a short 9-hole golf course too, and Horse Riding) about 6 miles away around the coast. The main town nearby is Clifden, 16 miles distant, to the south. Westport is about 20 miles north in Mayo. There is a Community and National Park Centre at Letterfrack (about 5 miles south) where they should be able to answer any of your enquiries. There is an Irish Tourist Board Office open in the Summer in Clifden, and a large year-round office at Aras Failte, Eyre Square, Galway (60 miles).
