This unique property, overlooking the scenic town of Clifden, was formerly a Church of Ireland Schoolhouse. Built in 1825, one of the town's earliest houses, the Schoolhouse is now one of Connemara's listed buildings. Many original features remain, including large stone fireplaces, exposed stone walls, old pine floors, doors and staircase.

Open plan living space and large stone-arched palladian windows allow plenty of light, giving a bright and spacious atmosphere. The house has recently been restored and now offers 4 bedrooms en-suite, 2 on the ground floor and 2 on the first floor (all with double beds), a spacious open-plan kitchen and living area, and a lounge area on the first floor with balcony overlooking the living quarters below.

There are 2 staircases on either side of the house - the old pine staircase leads to the open balcony, which overlooks the living room/fire, and an attractive spiral staircase leads to the large stone bedroom (dormitory). All bedrooms overlook a large sheltered garden at the rear of the house, offering complete privacy. The house has central heating and all modern conveniences. Electricity and heating are extra.

It is located at the top of Church Hill next to Sunnybank Guesthouse, in a quiet residential area of Clifden, close to a fine selection of restaurants and local amenities.
