Description

Picture perfect!  Located in the Aran Islands, the westernmost islands of Europe, 30 miles into the Atlantic Ocean off Galway Bay, this house maybe the most beautiful, isolated and peaceful place you could hope to find. Originally a thatched fisherman's cottage, the house restored into an environmentally-friendly dwelling and powered by the islands' three wind generators, is on the highest point of the island with magical views of Galway Bay, the purple mountains of Connemara and Kerry, and the hills of Clare.  The house has three bedrooms and can accommodate four adults (4), or three (3) adults and two (2) children. The local pub is a gem! The island's award winning Inis Meain restaurant has been named by the Financial Times Nicholas Lander as one of his top choices.
