Search Chalets in Recess

"John was quite welcoming and accommodating to the heating needs that come with a late winter stay. All I was looking for was a house with an ocean view and a fire to sit by. Although this home met those needs, it isn't close to restaurants or cafes for breakfast (I couldn't find anything within a 30 minute drive that opened before 10am) so come prepared to purchase breakfast foods and cook. My favorite aspect of the home are the two wood burners!The area is remote and quiet and peaceful. An incredibly beautiful area close to Connemara hiking and Kylemore Abbey. I definitely recommend staying here. "

"Our first visit to Ashford Castle was unforgettable, and we’re already planning our return. From the moment we drove through the gates, everything felt personal and welcoming. Every member of staff we met was friendly, kind, and genuinely attentive. Our room was perfect, the grounds were absolutely stunning, and the food was truly 5‑star. Breakfast was an experience in itself — the spread was incredible. A fabulous stay from start to finish."

"Spotless room, attentive staff"

"Staff were nice, beds very comfortable and the brook outside the window made sleeping a dream. Could do with some updates here and there but otherwise a lovely stay."

"It was a pleasant stay"

"We had a lovely stay and the days were clear and bright showing off the location as we were surrounded by lough Corrib. The open fire was delightful. The well equipped kitchen easily accommodated our Christmas day meal. The design of the house is excellent and accommodates all real needs with a variety of spaces. "

"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."
