About Us

Carmel and Martin set up this family busines 18 years ago when Carmel
opted to work from home while rearing their six children. Everyone
in the family became involved and have stayed involved over the
years. Even now the "adult children " take time when home to talk to
guests and advise them on the best attractions in

                              

Carmel is a qualified tourism marketing specialist and has travelled
extensively promoting Connemara with the local Connemara Tourism
organisation and Ireland West and has gained a wealth of information
on what the discerning tourist wants . She is always available to
give guests the virtual tour of the region- either on arrival or after
cooking you a typical large Irish breakfast before departure.

Local maps, brochures, guide books and price lists freely available.
