A true taste of Ireland.

5/5 - Excellent

Similar to Connemara without as many tourists. Scenery is often breathtaking!

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

I was disappointed. Not because it wasn’t beautiful but because it didn’t have a relaxed feel to the place. It was too far to go into a town and go to pubs or anything. They had VERY limited menus for dinner and what they had was very expensive.

5/5 - Excellent

Excellent countryside town. Eat at Wild Atlantic lodge or Monks and you'll be happy.
