Susanne April 2024

“Beautiful location with a view that can be enjoyed in all weathers from a cosy living room.”

Heating and fireplace worked well. Proper warm water in the bathrooms. Kitchen equipment could do with an uplift. Would definitely go back.

“A warm, comfortable holiday cottage in an amazing location.”

The view is wonderful (sea from the front, hill from the back). So nice being able to just wander down the driveway, cross the road and get onto the beach. The cottage has great facilities (3 bathrooms!) and is very comfortable. Great shop and pub in Tully Cross. Spectacular scenery everywhere. We went with our 22-year-old son and we all loved it. I've already been recommending it to friends and family!

“My teenage son and I have just left the lovely Seaspray cottage today after spending a blissful week there with our dog.”

The owner, Maureen, is lovely, she popped by to make sure we were okay and had everything we needed but didn’t overstep and gave us plenty of privacy also. The cottage itself is very charming, with the weather being mixed and still quite cool we lit the fire every night which was lovely. The beds are very comfy with the welcome addition of electric blankets which made them very cosy to climb into! I can’t stress enough how beautiful the sea view is from the master bedroom and lounge / dining area, a lovely change when you live in a city. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook anything you might want and we enjoyed several home cooked meals. We hope to return again in the future!

“Whilst it's a lovely location not as remote as we thought ( should have checked google street view) maybe advising prospective renters of the working farm next door who have 4 dogs who are around the property and urinating and defecating in the grass out front and back I was concerned about our dog whenever we took her outside .”

I am just thankful that we never went in Summer and wanted to sit outside or had young kids. Heating system is outdated and as the cottage is quite draughty we had to have it on constantly trying to keep the cottage warm it did cost quite a bit at the end of the holiday. Apart from that the facilities in the cottage are reasonable as expected and there is a nice view of the ocean looking out from the bedroom and sitting room .

“The location was amazing!”

Stunning views and short drive to most of western Ireland. The cottage was cozy. It was hard to keep a fire going, the chimney didn't have great airflow. The kitchen was a little dated, but we only used it for breakfast so it wasn't a big deal. If you like to sleep with the windows open, be ready for a calico visitor around midnight. She's very sweet and will make herself at home on the bed with you. Overall, we very much enjoyed our time at Sea Spray Cottage and we would return.

“The cottage is in a fabulous location with access to local beaches.”

Maureen was very friendly and available if there were any problems (there was one small problem regarding accessing the TV channels which she solved straight away and with no fuss)." There is a shop and garage close by in the next village. There are also some good pubs locally (a ten minute drive) and ‘Teach Ceoil’ (a music expo of local trad musicians) runs every Tuesday during July and August and should not be missed. It showcases some of the most talented musicians in the country. The house has got everything you need for a good holiday as well as its incredible location!

Eoin July 2023

“Second year staying in this lovely property situated in what must be one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland.”

All the family (plus dog) had an amazing 2 weeks and even when raining, the perfect view can always lift the spirits. No need to deal with our host Maureen as all was in order with the house & had all we needed. Will be back next year

- Eoin, July 2023
David June 2023

“It is a lovely property and a great location.”

We found a few issues when we got there and the owner responded quickly and positively.

Jill January 2023

“What a lovely cottage, excellent amenities.”

A real home by home. Maureen was very helpful and not to much trouble. Field next to cottage housed horses and had neighbours dog pay a visit. Real home by home. Few issues that was discovered Maureen fixed as much as could.(fuse to lights & plug in bath didn't work) Couple minutes walk to pebble beach. Or 4 minutes drive to sandy beach. Close (15/20mins) drive to Connemara national park. Would definitely book again.

“We had the most wonderful time in the loveliest house we have stayed in ever.”

Maureen was so kind and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. The views from the house are stunning and the house itself was clean, well kept and very, very comfortable. It made our trip so memorable, and our dog loved it too!

- Margaret, December 2022
Patrick December 2022

“The coziest of places.”

Comfy roaring fire with a priceless view of Clare island. Home was well equipped for everything I’d need. Felt like home from the start. Maureen is an amazing gracious host that had the home nicely decorated for the holidays. Real country feel with the village of Tully just shortly up the road. If you feel a bit lonely there, don’t fret, the neighbors dog will come visit you for a cup of tea. I will be planning my trips back to Renvyle based on the availability of this home. See you again real soon! Patrick New York

“Unfortunately the owner had a bereavement just before our arrival so i did not meet her in person.”

However the property was excellent and i hope to return next year

Caroline September 2022

“My daughter and I had such a lovely holiday here; we didn’t want to leave!”

The hosts were so welcoming and provided us with really useful information about the local facilities such as the supermarket, pubs and restaurants, and where to visit. The property has a pet friendly garden and there are plenty of beautiful places to walk nearby. There is a comfortable living area with open fire. The beds are also really comfortable, plenty of towels are provided and even a hairdryer! The kitchen and utility room are very well equipped. I’ll miss the spectacular sea views from the living room and master bedroom and great food and drink at a traditional Irish pub nearby!

- Caroline, September 2022
Eoin July 2022

“My wife & I spent a very enjoyable week in Seaspray with our young son.”

Our host Maureen was really helpful & pleasant to deal with but in reality we didn’t need to bother her during our stay as we had no problems at all with the house….everything worked perfectly! Amazing views, walks in the nearby stony beach (across the road) and daily visits by Ruby (our neighbours dog) made our stay so relaxing and enjoyable. Also we found the beds really comfortable which can be quite rare in a lot of holiday homes. Even on rainy days the view would make staying in this house a pleasure! A great house to base yourself in for local trips to fabulous beaches, trips to Letterfrack, Leenaun & Cliften. All in all, couldn’t fault & planning on booking again for next year!!

- Eoin, July 2022
Jon July 2022

“The location is lovely with a really nice sandy beach 5 mins away by car and some nice places to eat but the property feels tired and not hitting its potential.”

Having to heat the immersion heater to have hot water to shower or wash dishes which don't go in the dishwasher. The one electric shower floods the bathroom. The bath has a hole in it?? (not the plug hole before you say). The oven barely gets to proper temperature. In general it needs a good overhaul. The outside space is large with ample parking but they don't have a patio or a BBQ to enjoy the outside space, although there is a heavy picnic bench. Over all its a base for a holiday but I've had better for less money, the best part of £1000 for week I expect more.....

- Jon, July 2022
Sheila July 2022

“A beautiful house with amazing views and so clean and well maintained, lots of towels and every kitchen utensil you can think of and the beds are very comfortable.”

The views and how cosy the living area is a real gem. Maureen was on hand for all our queries including when my car refused to start on the first morning, an extremely friendly host. There is a little sandy inlet a couple of minutes walk beside the castle that my children loved and the views while sitting on the rocks was just wonderful. So much to do in the area, we went on a day trip to Inishbofin, Killary sheep farm, Kylemore Abbey and gardens and White strand beach and so many restaurants but many more things to do and places to explore. Seaspray is the perfect holiday house.

- Sheila, July 2022
Mary June 2022

“Seaspray is a great holiday home, exactly as described, comfortable, very clean and in a quiet location on the coast with amazing sea views!”

A great base for touring the spectacular mountains, lakes and beaches of north Galway and south Mayo with unique towns and villages. Thanks to Maureen who made us feel very welcome.

- Mary, June 2022
Kevin May 2022

“We would like to thank the owners again for a great stay in their cottage, quiet tranquil and right by the sea.”

Could not be happier, had a great week on the motorcycles touring the area and then back to cook and enjoy evenings.

“Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage in a wonderful location.”

“The setting was so peaceful and pretty overlooking the inlet from Atlantic.”

“Lovely house - we had a great time here and are planning to come back again.”

Ann July 2021

“Lovely cottage exactly as described right on the beach, easy access and owner met us shortly after arrival.”

Explained everything in detail. Clean and tidy cottage. Had to contact owner a couple of times about problem with hot water and dvd player. On both occasions these were dealt with satisfactory and extremely quickly. Comfy rooms and furniture. Our only comment would be that a normal size freezer would make the stay easier as able to do one big shop rather than lots of little ones. However it should be noted that one is not listed in the facilities so it shouldn't have have been expected. Just a little bonus if it was. Perfect position, easy access to main roads and tourist attractions. Hope to return.

- Ann, July 2021
Raquel September 2020

“Thanks to Ellen who we rang very last minute to find us a property did her very best for us and we got to stay at Seaspray Cottage.”

Kind Regards Raquel and Paul from Sligo.

Margaret December 2019

“Lovely Cottage Superb views.”

Only one thing was the lack of DVD player which would have been good , as the reception on Television at night was not good.This probably , wouldn't matter if we had not been visiting in Winter.However , this is minor, compared to the Wonderful Holiday we had .Would recommend and visit again. Thank you.

- Margaret, December 2019
Gerald September 2019

“This cottage is superb.”

Nothing in front but sea nothing behind but mountains. So many places to visit nearby, we ran out of time. The two local pubs offer brilliant food at decent prices. We all slept really well after coastal walks, especially the dog. The welcome was very warm, with a bottle of really welcome wine. So quiet. We went in September but were really lucky with the weather. The cottage is very well equipped, warm and cosy. If you want to get away from it all, stay here.

- Gerald, September 2019
Anne August 2019

“I find Renvyle to be the part of the world that I most love.”

Martina March 2018

“Really enjoyed staying in the cottage.”

We were in a perfect location looking at the sea every morning and having lots of walks on our doorstep. It was really cold some of the nights so the electric blankets were amazing. Perfect set up for our family with the open plan kitchen, dining, sitting room. We would definitely stay again and thank you so much for having us.

- Martina, March 2018
Maureen January 2018

“Fabulous location and Maureen and Tony were very helpful.”

Had a super time and considering we went in January there was plenty to do even though lots of places were closed. Would certainly go back again.

The property

This charming detached cottage is located two miles from the seaside village of Tully on the beautiful Renvyle Peninsula in County Galway.

Situated on an elevated site, this delightful cottage has been well-appointed and furnished to provide comfortable holiday accommodation for a family or group of friends looking to explore this scenic region.

The cottage has three pleasant bedrooms, with two of them having their own en-suites.

The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to cook up a delicious meal, and afterwards retire to the comfortable sitting room with its warming open fire as you chat over the day?s adventures, or simply relax and gaze out over the ocean.

Outside the delights of Connemara await you, and a short trip will take you to the picturesque Renvyle Beach where the sea extends as far as the eye can see.

Alternatively hop in the car for a short trip to Leenane and Killery Harbour where you can marvel at the majestic fiord that the Atlantic Ocean has carved inland between the mountains.

Of course a trip to Kylemore Abbey with its enchanted lake and Victorian walled garden is a must-see, or hop on the daily ferry from nearby Cleggan to spend a day immersing yourself in island culture on Inshbofin Island.

Connemara National Park is on the doorstep and offers a wealth of walking opportunities in stunning surroundings.

For a wider selection of pubs cafes and restaurants, the nearby town of Clifden offers a varied selection.

Seaspray really is a lovely base to explore all that the Wild Atlantic Way has to offer.
