Ár Scéal

Oileán beag is ea Leitir Mealláin ar chósta thiar na hÉireann i gConamara, Contae na Gaillimhe. Tá an t-oileán suite sa Ghaeltacht timpeall 36 míle ó chathair na Gaillimhe. Tá Leitir Mealláin ar cheann de na trí Oileán ar a dtugtar Ceantar na nOileán

Saibhir i nGaeilge agus sa chultúr, bhí ceangal láidir i gcónaí ag muintir Leitir Mealláin leis an bhfarraige, rud a fhágann gur gníomhaíocht eacnamaíoch thábhachtach don cheantar í feirmeoireacht agus tionscail na feamainne. Acmhainn nádúrtha í an fheamainn agus tá baint fheamainne ar cheann de na traidisiúin is sine dá bhfuil ann i gCeantar na n-Oileán.

Amazing experience today, enjoyed a seaweed relaxation bath which allows for 2 people in separate baths to enjoy the experience together. Sarah goes the extra mile to ensure you have a wonderful time, you could just rock up with a hair brush and deodorant as she supplies everything from flip flops to towels and robes. Nothing felt rushed and she gave us a fruit salad, juice and a lemon seaweed mousse after which was a beautiful touch. We would love to come back.

We had a wonderful visit to the Seaweed Centre! My wife and father-in-law joined me. Sarah took plenty of time to explain everything, answer all our questions, and even share the history of the local people. The seaweed bath itself was very relaxing and left our skin silky smooth. We even got to take the seaweed with us to use again. If you want to try something unique while in Ireland give them a visit! Even the drive from Galway City was awesome!

What a delightful experience. The rooms are gorgeous, everything is immaculate, Sarah is a gem of a host and wonderful source of local knowledge. From the steam room start, to the calming bath waters, to the delightful post bath snack, it was all perfect.
Don’t miss out on this lovely Connemara experience.

Sarah was such a delight and made our experience perfection! This experience was incredible from start to finish. We enjoyed the steam room, the nice, warm baths full of seaweed, and the delightful (and unique) fruit salad after! It was such a relaxing afternoon, and I’m eager to go again!
