From the owner

“Anam-Samh” (= “tranquil soul” in Irish) is a private, quiet, modern, comfortable and tastefully furnished 5-bedroomed family villa of 200 qm with a panoramic view, idyllically situated on a secluded 2.5 acre site (10'000 m2), directly on the waterfront of lake Corrib. As its name implies the house is an ideal place to get away from it all.

With panoramic views of Lake Corrib and the Connemara mountains in the distance, the setting is breathtaking, peaceful, surrounded by nature and wild life.

Take a stroll through the surrounding countryside, go fishing, hill-walking or biking through scenic Connemara or enjoy cinemas, theater, traditional Irish music etc. It's all on your doorstep.

Further details

The rent (incl. security deposit) and cleaning costs will have to be transferred to our bank account in Germany (costs of bank transfer with IBAN number within the EU only 50 Cents.) Down payment at signature of contract = 300.- Euro (sorry we don't accept checks).

Alternatively, if you have a “PayPal” account, you can transfer the money to my e-mail address. (When you pay via paypal you are asked what "kind" of payment. When you choose “Personal Payment”, I will receive the full amount you owe me and you will just pay a small international fee.)

Further details indoors

The house was built in 2001 with comfort in mind. With its under floor electric storage heating downstairs and electric wall heaters upstairs it is cosy and warm even in a cold winter. It is tastefully furnished with part antique, part modern furniture.
Downstairs: Large living/dining-room with fireplace and windows overlooking the lake and door leading to patio, garden and conservatory. Superb, fully-equipped tiled kitchen with granite worktop and solid wood cupboards. 3 bedrooms with wooden flooring: 2 double, 1 twin (master bedroom en-suite), a large tiled bathroom with bath and dual lavabo and WC.
Upstairs: Large living/reading-room with balcony, 2 bedrooms: 1 twin, 1 single; shower and toilet.

Further details outdoors

The House is surrounded by a very large Garden, play area and its own woods at rear. As its name "tranquil soul" implies the house is an ideal place to get away from it all. With panoramic views of Lake Corrib and the Connemara mountains in the distance, the setting is breathtaking, peaceful, surrounded by nature and wild life.
