About this cottage rental
We welcome you to Ashford Old Schoolhouse in the beautiful surroundings of Ashford Estate and Cong village between Loughs Corrib and Mask. Enjoy the stay in our historical cottage built by the Guinness family in 1853. Surrounded by endless woodland walking and cycling paths and bordering the beautiful grounds and gardens of Ashford Castle hotel. Cong village with pubs and restaurants is just a 20 minute walk through the estate.

There is lots to do in the area for the whole family - horse riding, zip lining, golfing, falconry, archery and boat trips all within 5 minute walk. The area of Cong and Connemara is stunning for sightseeing, hill walking, beaches and little villages with cosy pubs. Kylemore Abbey, Clifden, Galway city and Westport all within less than an hours drive
Accommodation is situated in renovated wing of old Ashford Castle gate lodge with separate entrance, garden and parking. Double bedroom, bathroom, kitchen/living room with wood burning stove downstairs. Triple bedroom with 3 single beds upstairs and a bathroom upstairs. We look forward to welcoming you soon.

Our hosts were lovely and responsive. The house was immaculately clean. Easy walk to the falconry and Ashford Castle activities. Quick drive to Cong what has a sweet area with 4 pubs and shops. We highly recommend this for a stay.

We could not have asked for a better experience! The cottage was beautiful. Words really can’t describe the surrounding area. Being able to take a walk and go directly into the Ashford Castle grounds made every morning walk a beautiful walk. Our hosts were the BEST. I would definitely recommend this stay to anyone traveling to Ireland.!!!
