Murrays Traditional Irish Stone Cottage, near lake | Cottage in Co. Galway
3 Bedroom Cottage in Annaghdown, Co. Galway
Experience an authentic historical cottage based in rural Ireland. Sit back, relax and enjoy the breath-taking, green scenery that Ireland is so famous for. This stunning original cottage was built in 1910 and was originally inhabited by native Irish speakers. The beautiful two-story cottage is steeped in history and was built by a strong community spirit.
Kate, one of the five Murray siblings, worked in the kitchen at the Blake family residence in the area. When the Blakes heard that the Murray family had been evicted from their home in Tonamance they were heartbroken. Knowing Kate to be a hard working decent person they decided to help out a family in need. The Blake family donated the site for the cottage so that Kate and her family would not be turned out on the streets. The entire community banded together to donate the funds required to complete the works and volunteered their labour.
One of the main builders was John Goaley who is the grandfather of the present owner. It was a condition from the Blake family that the house would revert back to the Blakes Estate after the last of the Murrays had died. The cottage changed hands many times over the years and fell into a ruinous state. The present owner and her husband have lovingly restored this picturesque cottage to a very high standard. Thanks to their care and attention to detail a delightful authentic stone cottage, nestled among the rolling green hills of the West of Ireland awaits your arrival.
With three bedrooms and a sofa bed this delightful cottage can cater for all wishing to experience a break from daily life. The master bedroom has a king size bed. There is also a double bedroom and a twin room. Up to six guests at a time can relax and unwind in this idyllic country paradise. All the bedrooms overlook the garden surrounding the cottage and the hills beyond. Lose yourself for an hour at time delighting in every shade of green imaginable spreading out in all directions.
Enjoy the view of the garden and the patio while cooking or making a cup of tea in this classic cottage kitchen. Take a home cooked meal and a glass of wine out onto the patio and enjoy a sunset in the best company.

This is the perfect base for sightseeing or exploring Connemara and Galway City. Or sit and watch the world go by in this stunning scene of uninterrupted views of the countryside and distant hills.
