The Rock Glen Hotel is situated on Ardbear Bay, just south of Clifden, on the west coast of Ireland. Originally built in 1815 as a hunting lodge, the Hotel has an unrivalled view of the Twelve Bens mountain range as you look over Ardbear Bay - the perfect location to get away from it all.

The friendly and helpful staff, will make you feel at home during your stay, and you are guaranteed to enjoy the fine cuisine (for which the hotel is renowned), and the relaxed atmosphere.

Accommodation:
The 27 bedrooms all have facilities en-suite, 14 of which are on the ground floor. Each room has a TV, radio, trouser press, hair-dryer and direct dial telephone.

Lounge & Piano Bar:
At the end of a hard day's leisure, come in to the hotel bar where plump armchairs outnumber bar stools and a turf fire glows all year round. You can enjoy an evening of musical entertainment with our resident pianist. Spontaneous sing-songs occur regularly, and you are invited to join in.

Amenities:
From the idyllic setting of the Rock Glen you can explore the many sandy beaches nearby, at Mannin Bay or Ballyconneely. Or why not take a trip to nearby Roundstone village, passing by the historic landing site of Alcock & Brown and, nearer the village itself, beautiful Dog's Bay.

Activities:
If you're a golfing enthusiast you'll be delighted to hear that the spectacular setting of the Connemara Golf Club, an 18 hole championship course, is only a 15-minute drive from the Hotel.

Connemara is perfect for hillwalking, and for river, lake and sea-fishing. If you want to go pony-trekking (Connemara is famous for its ponies), we can arrange it for you.

We have a full-size snooker table, as well as an all-weather tennis court and croquet lawn for your pleasure. We can even arrange clay-pigeon shooting on request.
