The chalet was a perfect base to explore Connemara. It was private and comfortable and had all the facilities we needed for our two-night stay. It exceeded our expectations.

A very nice gesture from the host, as he left us a welcome gift in the apartment in the form of homemade eggs, chips and cookies. Also apartment was very clean, garden around nice with few hens. Helpfull host, when we have some problems with shower.

We could not get the black heater behind the couch to turn on and the master bathroom needs to replace the broken base of the toilet as it is leaking.

Cozy, little 2 bedroom 2 bathroom chalet with very comfortable beds. The kitchen was well stocked. It has a washing machine and dryer in the unit. The unit has lots of windows. The owners left fresh eggs and a bag of crisps and some chocolate. The 3 chicken on the property were cute.

We throughly enjoyed our stay! It is perfect for 3 people, its location perfect for trips to Galway and the countryside. Close to the main road and yet very quiet! The landlord is very friendly and helpful. Thanks, Joslyn, for the fresh eggs from your inquisitive chickens ;). Next time we come to your part of the country, we can hopefully stay with you again. Thanks again!

Little breeze coming through end of back door but it only needs a draft blocker it’s not a big issue

Clean and cozy

I think they can improve the front door to avoid wind to go inside, we got one day really windy, and I could feel the cold breeze coming inside.

Good location to explore Cenemara by car, there were a small village with restaurants, supermarkets, everything you need. Galway City was 30 min by car, which was also handy to visit. The free-range eggs were great, and the apple pie and cookie on the first day were delicious. The chickens were also around, which was also fun for our son to interact.

Joslyn left us some beautiful fresh pastries and eggs from their chickens! All of which we devoured - they were delicious! It was lovely having the chickens visit in the morning too. We really enjoyed our stay at Sweethaven Chalet. We were in Galway with work but we were able to relax and switch off in this little haven! Thanks so much for facilitating such a comfortable stay.

Très bien situé pour visiter le connemara et la région de Galway. Special thanks to the hens for their kindness and the eggs!

A home away from home! Had everything we needed, including a well stocked pantry, some little chocolates, and iced bun treats! We were driving around Ireland, and the chalet had a much needed washer and dryer.

Arriving late to the property was not a problem. The house was very clean and well aired upon arrival. The hosts left a list of house information and contact numbers to the themselves and local facilities like doctor and taxi. Leaflets and brochures of tourist attractions in the area were available for us to browse in the living room. Fresh, free range eggs were left for us and the chickens were very friendly. The host was very friendly and helpful. We are definitely considering returning for our next holiday.

Nothing.

I had a few nights' stay in this cottage while exploring Galway and the Connemara area. It was really convenient for both. The cottage is at the back of another property but was quiet, and it was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The supermarket and town (Oughterard) is 1km up the road so easy to get to. Fresh eggs, chocolates and a pastry were nice extras. Thank you!

My stay was perfect for the four days I stayed, the host even provided me with a clothes brush 🫶

The hosts left a fresh croissant, brown bread, and 6 organic eggs (best I’ve ever tasted). The place was warm on arrival which was so welcoming 🙏

Have nothing but positive things to say about the Sweet haven Chalet! Spotlessly clean, warm, snug, ideally located a few mins from Oughterard a nd the hosts were so accommodating. Fresh eggs left for breakfast, cinnamon rolls, a stocked kitchen with cooking oil and tea, it was ideal. Everything you need for a quiet weekend break. We hope to return ASAP!
