1 Windermere

About this property

1 Windermere is a beautifully presented holiday home set in the heart of Kinvara, a colourful harbour town along Ireland’s famed Wild Atlantic Way. Offering three storeys of comfortable living and views that remind you exactly why County Galway is so celebrated, this welcoming property makes a fine base for families or friends eager to explore both the coast and the countryside. Step into the open-plan living space, where a well-equipped kitchen provides everything needed for easy self-catering, including an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Gather around the dining table to plan the day’s adventures, or settle into the inviting sitting area, complete with an electric fire, TV and WiFi—ideal for unwinding after windswept shoreline walks or a day exploring the region.

Across the three floors, the house offers three thoughtfully arranged bedrooms: a bright second-floor double with its own en-suite shower room, another double, and a single, making it well-suited for mixed groups or families. A family bathroom with a bath and shower over completes the layout. A travel cot and highchair are provided, making things easier for guests with young children. Outside, the enclosed rear yard offers a sheltered space to relax with a drink in hand, while parking is conveniently available along the quay. Kinvara itself is a treat to explore, with traditional pubs, local shops, and its lively harbour all within walking distance.

Join one of the village’s regular cultural events, or simply enjoy fresh seafood at a local restaurant. For wider adventures, Galway City is easily reached, perfect for music, markets and museums, while Burren National Park offers otherworldly landscapes, walking trails and wildlife. With its superb location and welcoming atmosphere, 1 Windermere promises a memorable stay along Ireland’s rugged western coast.

A picturesque seaside village in south County Galway, Kinvara is located on the edge of the world renowned "Burren" on Galway Bay. The entrance into Kinvara is marked by Dunguaire Castle, where medieval banquets are still hosted, and the quaint harbour still holds working examples of 'Galway Hookers', the majestic sailing craft which used to sell their wares between Connemara & Kinvara. Home to numerous pubs, shops and eateries, with a renowned farmer’s market every Friday and hosting two festivals celebrating culture and heritage each year, there is no shortage of things to do here. The small city of Galway, affectionately known as the “city of festivals”, with its pretty alleyways and colourful nightlife is within easy reach, and 7 miles away is the Burren National Park and Nature Reserve where animals and plant life are abundant, and there are numerous walking opportunities. A wonderful location, at any time of the year.
