    Location was the only small issue for us, we struggled with food and supermarkets but there was a few shops for any necessities.

    Had an amazing stay at Earls View. The weather didn’t play ball but we made the most of it. The pod was so cosy and comfy. Susie recommended some amazing walks which really helped us out for things to do in the area. Would love to go back.

    The only thing was that the stay wasn't long enough .

    The plus sides were the absolute peace and quiet of the location . The pod had everything that you could need for your stay it was immaculately clean the bed was so comfortable and you were far enough from the other pod that you felt completely alone ..

    The location is perfect. Very peaceful with beautiful views over the bay to the Twelve Bens. Bed very comfortable and all facilities you need. Picked blackberries to go with breakfast and our host Tom came over for a chat in the evening. Lovely stay in stunning location.

    What a glorious find. Susie and Tom have created space of heaven here: the views (just wow), the proximity to the beach, the pod which is equipped to perfection, the perfect outdoor area… I could go on. Highly recommend taking a trip to Gurteen bay if you’re visiting for longer than a day - about an hour from the pod but worth it for the views on the drive.

    That we didn't book for a 4th night!

    Everything! From the moment we arrived Susie was an excellent host, giving us a guided tour of the Pod, providing us with a Barbeque on request and offering us a detailed itenary of locations to visit and many local walks and beaches we could pick and choose at our own pace. The pod was very comfortable for the 2 of us and really well stocked of all the utensils we might need. This accommodation is in a stunning location, with a calmness and serenity full of nature and ideal for anyone looking to escape a fast paced world. Anyone who is talented enough to paint or sketch would be spoilt for choice in landscapes, flora and fauna. We had both wet and good weather throughout our stay and either didn't hinder our stay as we had a very well covered and private seating area beside our pod. We will definitely return again.

    I fully understand why there is only microwave for 'cooking' . Having a small hob would be a fire hazard in the timber pod, but I missed a normal way to cook something. There is a BBQ outside if you wish. I still think it's 10 out of 10, even when I missed some normal way to cook the breakfast.

    The place and pod was lovely, Tom was also nice. Definitely recommending to stay there, totally different experience, the place was spotless. We had fire in the chimnea, so nice in the evening.

    Loved our stay here. Suzie and Tom were so friendly, accomodating and welcoming. Would definitely have loved another night so we will definitely be back! The area and in particular the beach about a 10 minute walk away was spectacular!! Suzie's direction's, information and helpfulness was great. We ate in the local pub restaurant which is highly recommended 😄

    Nothing, tho would have preferred less rain and more sunshine

    Beautiful pod in a magnificent part of Connemara. Quiet and remote a shirt walk from the beach. The pod was spotless and had everything we needed. The views were gorgeous and Susie and Tim were a pleasure to meet. The addition of the little outdoor space beside the pod meant that we could sit outside regardless of the weather which was great. Will defo be back it's a beautiful way to switch off and enjoy the surroundings, silence and beauty of the place
