Reviewed Jul 10, 2019The lodge is quiet!!! Our room was immaculate, the bed was very comfortable and the view of the lake from our room and the lounge was wonderful. Many thanks to our hosts, Connie and Donal, who were amazing. Breakfast was the perfect start to exploring the area. We spent time on the Aran Islands and in the fishing mecca of Oughterard. Donal and Connie know the area well and offered spot on advice and insights. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you Connie and Donal!!!
This was a beautiful location overlooking the largest lake in Ireland. Very quiet, but kind of in the middle of no where. I wasn't expecting it to be so far off the beaten path, but probably should have. If you want to be away from the city, this is the place to be. We even enjoyed watching a herd of cows being corraled down the street. The breakfast was delicious. I had french toast and my daughters said the eggs were the best they had on the whole 12 day trip. Donal and Connie were very nice hosts and gave us good direction on activities to do and avoid. The room was very clean with a nice view of the lake. I would stay here again.

Reviewed Jul 10, 2018We were made to feel extremely welcome. It's a lovely place with wonderful hosts.
Diese Unterkunft war mit Abstand die schönste auf unserer Rundreise durch Irland- in zauberhafter Lage mit Aussicht auf eine unberührte Natur an einem großen See gelegen. Das Haus war sehr schön eingerichtet, wir hatten zu dritt ein großes Zimmer mit drei sehr bequemen Einzelbetten, Wasserkocher, Tee, Kaffee, Milch und Kekse waren vorhanden. Es gab extra für die Gäste ein sehr gemütliches Wohnzimmer, auch mit Aussicht auf den See.
Der Wirt war ein Schatz, der zum Frühstück nach Bestellung alles servierte, was das Herz begehrte und auch sonst behilflich bei allem war.
Die Schlange in diesem Paradies ist die Zufahrt: eine 11 km lange, sehr kurvenreiche, hügelige und schmale Straße, die zudem noch ziemlich befahren ist, weil es in der zauberhaften Landschaft natürlich viele Ferienhäuser gibt. Für die Angelsachsen scheint das nicht so ein Problem zu sein, aber für uns Deutsche ist die Fahrt, noch dazu mit Linksverkehr, der pure Stress, zumal das Navi nur ungefähr die Lage angibt, weil viele Häuser auf den britischen Inseln keine Hausnummern, sondern Namen haben, die das Navi natürlich nicht erkennt. Man kann den Ort aber gut auf Google finden.
Ein heißer Tipp, falls Sie sich für diese Unterkunft entscheiden: fahren Sie nie, nie im Dunkeln und auch nicht bei Sonnenuntergang. Sie fahren dann gegen die gleißende Sonne und sehen überhaupt nichts mehr.

Reviewed May 5, 2017Die Unterkunft ist ein echter Glücksgriff gewesen. Mit der Buchung kamen die GPS Koordinaten um einfacher die Unterkunft zu finden. Ein Auto ist für die Anreise absolut notwendig, aber wahrscheinlich ist niemand in der Region anders unterwegs. Die Inhaber sind ein wunderbar herzliches und fürsorgliches Pärchen und auch eine Anreise nach 21 Uhr war kein Problem.
Es gibt zwar nur eine handvoll Zimmer, aber die sind wunderbar und man fühlt sich einfach wohl. Der Blick auf den See ist grandios und wir wären gerne länger geblieben. Eine absolute EMPFEHLUNG!!!

They were kind to accommodate our late arrival after a long day of travel and due to a cancellation, they offered us our choice of rooms, which allowed us a larger space for our family to relax for a few days -- a triple with ensuite. Our room had a beautiful view of the mountains and the main house offered a cozy living room for reading. Both Don and Connie were very knowledgeable about the area and offered directions/information to help outline the remainder of our trip. And let's not forget the delicious breakfast!

Après nous avoir montré notre chambre et présenté les lieux, il nous a proposé du thé dans le lounge (qui dispose d'une vue irrésistible sur le lac!!). Carte en main, il nous a ensuite offert des conseils sur des itinéraires et des sites à visiter.

Il y a un grand choix de petits déjeuners, qui sont délicieux et copieux !!

Reviewed Aug 2, 2015Stayed for 2 nights in July. Used as a base to explore Connemara. Hosts were lovely, very friendly with great advice on places to visit and dine out. Room had lovely view of Loch. Remote and very quiet. Fantastic.
Closest village of Oughterard (15 min drive) had plenty of places to eat and drink. 'Real' Irish feel to it.
Breakfast was as good as it gets and sets you up for the day.
Apparently the fishing is great however, as I am no angler I can't comment!
Recommended.
I probably would not have used the word Lodge as a description of the home, it was a lovely bed and breakfast though. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. They do have wifi but it would not work in our room, so we needed to go to the lounge area in order to use it. The Lodge is located in a beautiful area near a lake, but it is a long way down the road, GPS couldn't even find it, ended up going to someone's house to ask directions. If you don't mind the drive, which we didn't once we figured out we weren't lost, than this is a nice place to stay.

Reviewed Oct 20, 2014I would definitely recommend Nonaim Lodge ! The welcome and comfort were amazing - a lovely cosy fire in a room overlooking Lough Corrib and the amazing scenery of the locale. Donal and Connie are lovely hosts - you can tell they love the area and know it inside out. This place is especially made for anyone who enjoys peace, quiet and seclusion and being immersed in nature. It is approx twelve km from Oughterard (which has lvoely pubs and eateries) so be prepared to drive back out to Nonaim Lodge. This is not at all a disadvantage - the drive to the village is gorgeous and it means that you can really enjoy the peace and quiet. The lodge is really well set up in the you can feel completely at home. I believe they also hire boats on the lake. So if you're an angler - this is heaven !

Reviewed Jul 15, 2014Der Aufenthalt war angenehm, nachdem die Anreise durch die sehr abgelegene Lage endlich abgeschlossen war. Erfreulich waren die Bemuehungen, noch Abendessen zu organisieren. Die Natur, die Umgebung und die Ausstattung der Zimmer sind angenehm. Die Stimmung kippte am naechsten Morgen, als es ein Problem mit der Bezahlung gab, obwohl das Problem innerhalb von 15 Minuten geloest wurde. Der Hotelbesitzer zeigte sich dort von seiner cholerischen und unflaetigen Seite und beschimpfte seine Gaeste auf das Uebelste. Fazit: schoene ruhige Lage, aber haben Sie stets genug Geld dabei, um den Hotelwirt zufriedenzustellen!

Reviewed Jul 11, 2014We were the only ones in the B&B because of other guests' last-minute cancellation. Though not necessarily good news for the proprietors, it was wonderful for us because we had the place to ourselves -- and the absolute quiet and solitude were wonderful. I haven't slept so comfortably in years.
The breakfasts were ample and delicious, and the timing is flexible. There's a lot to do within a 2-hour radius (assuming one has a car), including the Cliffs of Moher, Galway City, trekking in Connemara, ferries to the Aran Islands, etc. Nonaim Lodge is near the end of a 12-km road along a scenic hill-surrounded lake, so it's possible to do some great day hikes without getting in a car (as I did on a couple of days).
One minor downside is that it's necessary to drive at least 15 minutes to the nearest town, Oughterard, for dinner or other meals (excluding breakfast). The drive got a bit relentless by the fourth night of our stay, and there are not a lot of options in the town for dinner. But this is a minor quibble. Nonaim is a fantastic place overall, run by friendly, helpful and thoughtful people.
Very comfortable made to feel welcome but not intrusive. Very helpful in suggesting sights and way to go.
