Idyllic Connemara cottage with sweeping sea, island and mountain views.
Between Letterfrack and Tully, follow the boreen past Derryinver quay, and a breathtaking drive around Tully mountain brings you to the second last house on the road - Tearmann Mary—a charming traditional cottage dating back to the 1930s.
This updated retreat now boasts a sunlit wooden conservatory and an open-plan living room, kitchen, and dining area, with two upstairs bedrooms. The interior features rustic wooden accents, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The wood-burning stove provides not only warmth but also a focal point for intimate gatherings. For remote workers or writers, Wifi is available and there are desk spaces upstairs.
The warm and bright sunroom offers sweeping views of the surrounding landscape and features a 6-person dining table and a drying rack for your salty bathing suits. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and watch sheep and lambs wander by while enjoying a cup of tea and engaging in a quiet afternoon read.
Embark on foot from your doorstep to ascend Tully mountain, a part of Connemara National Park offering panoramic views over the entire West coast and the Twelve Bens mountain range. The mountain is not only a haven for wild hares, lizards, and Peregrine falcons, but also a gateway to dramatic sea cliffs inhabited by a colony of nesting Cormorants. You may even see a dolphin in the Atlantic! Alternatively, wander from the cottage down towards the sea, where hidden coves, piers, and beaches await, perfect for sea swims on sunny afternoons.
After your outdoor escapades, pamper yourself with a rejuvenating shower supplied by harvested rainwater, adding a sustainable touch to your stay. The cottage's thoughtful design extends to the well equipped kitchen, where you can prepare your family meals with the induction hob and combination oven.
As the sun sets over Inishbofin, linger over dinner in the conservatory or retreat indoors to the warmth of the wood-burning stove. You’ll enjoy cozy evenings filled with games, music, reading, or conversation—sans television, fostering a true escape from everyday life. Don’t forget to check out the starry night sky, free of light pollution!
You might never want to leave the cottage, but if your aim is to cover more ground, Tearmann Mary serves as a strategic base for exploring the region.
Head down to the pier in Tully for a sauna and swim in the sea. A few miles away in Letterfrack, park at the visitor’s center and walk the well-marked trails of Connemara National Park, a raw wilderness where rugged terrain meets a rich tapestry of wildlife, including wild baby goats! Challenge yourself to ascend the iconic Diamond Hill for breathtaking views or do a quicker, more accessible loop.
Discover the bustling town of Clifden, the “capital” of Connemara, known for its lively atmosphere and quaint independent shops. Have a seaweed bath, listen to trad music, or treat yourself to local favorites at one of the cozy pubs or restaurants, where you can enjoy hearty dishes like seafood chowder or local mussels paired with a pint of Guinness. Or rent some bikes and take in the stunning landscapes surrounding the town on Sky Road.
Take a scenic drive along the coast to Killary Fjord, where imposing mountains meet clear waters. You’ll pass two beautiful white sand beaches, Glassilaun and Lettergesh, along the way. Visit the Misunderstood Heron, a fabulous food truck, or engage in outdoor activities like boat tours and hiking at Killary Adventure Center.
Extend your adventure further to Westport, a town boasting Georgian architecture, restaurants, spas, and a vibrant arts scene. Wander the charming streets, visit Westport House or Croagh Patrick, and soak up the welcoming atmosphere.
If you’d like to go one step further and leave the mainland, hop on a ferry to Inisbofin, Inishturk, or Clare Island, each offering its own unique charm and attractions for a lovely day out. Or wait until low tide and walk across to Omey Island.
Whether you're seeking outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, a chance to disconnect, or a waypoint on the Wild Atlantic Way, a stay at Tearmann Mary promises cherished memories and an authentic Connemara getaway.
