Clifden Alcock and Brown Memorial Hotels

"Large, comfortable, and well equipped house perfectly located for exploring the area. Scenic views outside the large picture windows and nice walks nearby. Our host was very responsive and we were treated to a home completely decorated for our Christmas holiday."

"People were quite friendly. The room was clean, nice and warm. The pool was a great opportunity to get some lap swimming in during my brief stay. It helped me sleep like a baby, despite having traveled 8 time zones and about 12 hrs to get there."

"Staff is wonderful. Prosecco story time is always fun!"

"Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was one of the best I have had at a hotel. Great variety and freshly made. The evening meal was of a very high standard and a good choice menue. "

"It truly was a gem for us. The home was bright, airy, and spotless. The kitchen was so well-organized that we never had to wonder where anything was. We spent most of our indoor time in the kitchen and dining area — the large table was perfect for meals, games, and activities.Mary was exceptionally responsive and quickly sorted out the minor issues we faced upon arrival (we came during Storm Amy, so there were a few temporary electricity and water disruptions). The beds and linens were clean and comfortable, ensuring a good night’s rest.The location is beautifully secluded, with dark skies at night — perfect for stargazing. The surroundings were truly picturesque; we only wished the weather had allowed us to enjoy dinner outdoors facing the lake.We’d definitely love to return if we visit the country again."

"It was an overnight stay. We left early next morning. The staff stayed late because we were delayed getting there. Overall the experience was great"

"Great salmon omelet "

"We had a great time staying at this property. It is in the heart of Connemara with easy access to Kylemore Abbey, Connemara NP, Clifden, Galway and Westport. The islands are very close as well. As you should expect Irish weather changes on a dime from rain to sun and back in a moments notice. The owners live on the property and are very friendly and helpful."

"Enjoyed our short stay at this warm and cozy cottage. Well equipped kitchen, if you aren’t eating out all the time as we were. The grounds and cottage are lovely for a perfect trip to Clifden and Connemara. Wi-Fi excellent and didn’t expect it to be so good in the remoteness and hillside surroundings. "
