Lakeland House

This is among the cleanest and friendliest hostels I have stayed in, and the total is around 100. Inside and out, the hostel looks as it it has been newly painted and polished. The owner, Gerry, and his wife, and all their staff work very hard to make sure this standard is maintained. The kitchen and dining room are excellent as are the toilets and showers. I could live there for ever!!|The location, just a few minutes from Cong and very close to Loughs Corrib and Mask and the rest of Connemara, make it an ideal place to stay and explore. My fellow guests were of the same opinion.

Lovely place to stay. The accommodation and facilities are spotlessly clean. The staff are exceptionally friendly and great characters. The location is ideal, very close to Cong village, which is a gorgeous place to explore. I would highly recommend a stay :-)

Lovely owners, in lovely peaceful settings. Clean and tidy en-suite room although quite small. Large kitchen and dining area well maintained. A very handy laundry room is also on-site. Reasonably priced and just a 20 minute walk to the beautiful town of Cong makes for a great base. There are pitches for camper vans and large Teepee tents to hire. Perfect.

I stayed in a B&B room opposite the camping and reception. It's delightfully situated off any noisy rods, yet only a kilometer or two from the village. Jerry and Margaret were like old friends. Breakfast was included in my reservation and I went only for that reason, because the last several B&Bs I've been to were so quiet and isolating over breakfast. But there was a proper Irish welcome at this one. Anybody was welcome to keep their own company, but the room livened up with laughter and sharing of stories and I thought my heart would burst with joy. ||My room was spacious and had a wonderful summer-at-the-lake feeling about it that evoked childhood memories of a river where we had a cabin getaway in northern Michigan. There were pictures and memorabilia everywhere from The Quiet Man film. I almost missed breakfast because I was rolling around in ecstasy on the most comfortable mattress I've had in two months traveling around Ireland and I didn't want to get out of bed. Yum! I loved that the shower had plenty of variability in pressure and plenty of hot water! My shower late at night makes or breaks my night of sleep.||PS, despite appearances otherwise, Jerry is really a leprechaun. WHO could possibly resist his smile?!||This is my first time to Ireland, for a fabulous two and a half months. I will definitely be back to Lakeland House! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!||

Good location between Lough Corrib and Lough Mask. Part of a large site providing facilities for camping and caravans. Hostel is modern with good facilities – common kitchen and dining room well equipped, spacious and properly serviced. Lounge available, with showings of The Quiet Man Movie each evening. Room was basic, but clean and comfortable enough. En-suite was clean and functional – good shower. Common washrooms looked modern, clean and properly serviced. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Free WiFi – a bit erratic at times. Good laundry facilities. On-site parking. Excellent value for money at Euro 35 / night for double room.

Price for a family room was cheap, but it is not family friendly. Kitchen are self cating but access was at times not available as place was full of young students. |Students beeing loud at 12 a clock at night to recpect for other people|Around. |Spoken to owner, he had a rude attitude towards. No clear rules places in the facilities.|Online is advertised as family room and family frienly place but in reality not a single day was felt like that. More like student dorms with rude students doing all they want.

Lakeland House were very good to us on arrival. The dorm rooms were basic but clean and the beds were very comfortable. The site was a hive of activity and the glamping tents were well maintained.. There is a small children's playground on site. They offer something for everyone with campers galore. The kitchen facility was well equipped and all appliances easy to use. During our time there we meet many different nationalities. I would recommend a visit. I have been to other parks and the one thing that was very unique about Lakeland was the surrounding trees/hedging. OMG are they tall. Very good value for money. Thanks

Such a cool place to stay. Everything on site you could possibly need. Space to pitch your tent, space to park your camper, space to bunk in, all amenities. And its so close to Cong, and right beside the grounds of Ashford Castle, as well as beside the 2 places the boats leave from to do trips. This place is fab, and the owners are absolute salt of the earth gems Thanks for a fab weekend. We'll be back
