LOCATION
Connemara is famous across the world as one of Ireland's most scenic and appealing areas along the Wild Atlantic Way. It is renowned for its wide skies, rugged landscapes, stunning mountains, pristine lakes and breath-taking coastal scenery. The region is further characterized by its vast expanses of bogland and attractive villages.

Cannute House is ideally situated overlooking Cashel Bay and the beautiful, rugged coastline. Adding to its allure, the property enjoys a prime location directly adjacent to Canower Pier, offering unparalleled access to the waterfront lifestyle. Boasting a slipway and mooring for a boat, it allows residents access to exceptional facilities for indulging in fishing excursions and a variety of water activities right at their doorstep.

While beautifully secluded, the property is not isolated. The popular resorts of Clifden and Roundstone are a short distance away. Clifden is a cosmopolitan town, with cafés, bars, restaurants, hotels and shops, sports clubs, and good local schools. Roundstone, once a small fishing village, is now a favoured holiday destination with pubs, cafés and restaurants. The famous beaches of Gurteen and Dog's Bay are a couple of kilometers away.

Ballynahinch Castle Hotel, one of Ireland's leading luxury hotels, set in a private 700-acre estate of woodland, rivers and walks, is also within easy reach. Hill walking, mountain climbing, fly fishing, golf and horse riding are available locally, as are water sports of all kinds: swimming, windsurfing, canoeing, paddle boarding, snorkelling, sea fishing and sailing.

The area is home to several notable attractions, such as Kylemore Abbey, a handsome castle with renowned historic gardens, situated on the shores of Kylemore Lake. Another landmark is the Connemara National Park, encompassing some 2,000 hectares of scenic wilderness. The park offers numerous walking trails, including a hike up Diamond Hill.

The city of Galway, with its delightful medieval core, is approx. 72 km away. It offers plenty of amenities, including a wide choice of hotels and restaurants, shopping centres, cinemas, theatres, art festivals, hospitals and a university going back nearly 200 years.
