Oughterard is an attractive, bustling village right on the shores of one of Ireland's premier fishing locations, Lough Corrib. It is considered the trout angler's dream. Your fishing will be influenced by an ancient ambience secreted in the rugged landscape of Connemara.

But it's not only for anglers! Oughterard and its surrounding area offers hiking, biking, golfing on the newly developed golf-course or climbing in the mountains of Connemara. Or simply come and enjoy one of the most beautiful and unspoilt landscapes of Europe, where the striking peaks of the Twelve Bens and the Maam Turks meet the crashing waves of the Atlantic. Enjoy a good pint and Irish music in the pubs or lovely food in some of the restaurants. It's all just two minutes walk from Fough East!

James and Christa McGeough look forward to welcoming you to their family run B&B and are sure that you will enjoy your stay in Oughterard, the Gateway to Connemara!

Closed October to mid February.
