Property Description
Ross Lake House Hotel is a wonderful Georgian house set in the magnificent wilderness of Connemara, Co. Galway, battleground of the O'Flahertys and the De Burgos (now Burkes) of ancient times. The splendid house stands serenely in its estate of woods and gardens beckoning the world weary with its own refreshing charm. The Georgian theme is carried through the furnishings, fitments and fabrics from the top of the house to the front door. From the moment you arrive, Henry and Elaine will make you feel at home. The intimate bar is ideal for a drink before dinner. A high quality Irish menu is delightfully prepared and presented featuring a tempting variety of fresh produce from the nearby Connemara hills, as well as fish straight from the Atlantic.

Related Ireland Content
As far as tourist appeal goes, the small island of Ireland punches far above its own weight. The country is so packed with delights that visitors are often reduced to describing its charms in hyperbolic clichés: it is the greenest country, full of the friendliest people, all of whom would be geniuses if they weren’t distracted by the lure of the pub.
Ireland is indeed a green country - so much rainfall must have its benefits - and the people are justifiably renowned for their friendliness. As for the geniuses, well, the Irish
will proudly point to their four Nobel Laureatesfor Literature and declare that the success rate is unmatched in any other country of its size, all the while ensuring that the sacred ’round’ system (where everyone buys a drink for everyone else in turn) is strictly adhered to.
Yet Ireland’s charms run far deeper than the legendary craic of the pub or the accomplishments of a bunch of (mostly) dead writers. It has a remarkable history that is woven into virtually everything, from the prehistoric stone monuments of the Boyne Valley to the monuments honoring its fallen patriots, men and women who dared challenge the imperious might of its longtime occupier and contemporary friend, Britain.
It has a vibrant and dynamic capital, Dublin, which has spearheaded a stunning period of economic growth that has seen the country transformed from rural backwater to the envy of Europe. As a result, the Irish have grown in worldliness that continues to propel them to greater heights of achievement. Even the thorniest issue of all - Northern Ireland - has seen a kind of resolution and Ireland looks to the future with untrammelled confidence.
Geography The Republic of Ireland lies in the north Atlantic Ocean and is separated from Britain by the Irish Sea to the east. The northeastern part of the island (Northern Ireland) is part of the United Kingdom. The country has a central plain surrounded by a rim of mountains and hills offering some of the most varied and unspoilt scenery in Europe – quiet sandy beaches, semi-tropical bays warmed by the Gulf Stream, and rugged cliffs make up the 5,600km (3,500 miles) of coastline.
