Glen House Clonmany

Beautifully located and with an expansive view towards the sea, the McGonigle family's large guesthouse has a charming 18th century house at its heart and would make a lovely moderately priced and hospitable base for golf and the many other activities this lovely area offers
Rooms 9 (all en-suite, shower only & no smoking, 2 executive, 2 family, 2 ground floor, 1 wheelchair friendly). B&B from €35pps; ss €20. Children welcome (under 2 free, under 12 half price, cot available free of charge, babysitting arranged). Room service (limited hours); no pets. Rose Tea Room: Afternoon Tea only by reservation. Special offers available (including Genealogy Package). Closed Nov-Mar. MasterCard, Visa. abbreviations

Beautifully located and with an expansive view towards the sea, the McGonigle family's large, well-managed B&B has a charming 18th century house at its heart. It's a delightful place to stay and would make a lovely, moderately priced and relaxing base for a few days of golf, or any of the many activities this stunning area offers - the dramatic 40 foot Glenevin Waterfall is accessed by a path right beside the house, there are magnificent hill walks starting at Glen House, a fine beach, horse riding nearby, and summer festivals celebrating the music and culture of the area.


Martin and Sonia McGonigle made a lot of improvements after they bought Glen House in 2005 – initially adding an impressive decked area overlooking the river which runs down from The Glenevin Waterfall and in 2014, a little traditional thatch-roofed cottage which serves as a craft shop and ice cream parlour. Across the yard, the charmingly traditional Rose Tea Room is in a large conservatory with views of the Urris Hills. Afternoon Tea is available by reservation only, but there's also a comfortable sitting room where guests can chill out at any time.


The house is immaculately maintained and has a very welcoming feeling - which is very much down to Sonia McGonigle, who is a thoughtful and hospitable host who conveys a feeling of great personal care and warmth about the whole property.


The bedrooms include an especially appealing superior room at the front of the original house with a king size bed and magnificent views from two corner windows, but all the rooms are bright, elegant and have every comfort you could need including TV, tea & coffee trays (with homemade biscuits) and generous bathrooms with power showers. Double, twin and family rooms are available and a ground floor room has wheelchair access.



It's a lovely place to stay, in a very special area.
