Cnoc Suain

Tearmann aoibhinn, fianaise ar stair na muintire, údar cheiliúrtha ar shaothar na nglúnta a bhí, lón anama dá bhfuil le teacht.

Cnoc Suain, in County Galway, is an enchanting family-owned hillside settlement of restored and reimagined traditional thatched and slate-roofed cottages, vernacular styled buildings, dry stone walls, biodiverse habitats and traces of an ancient past. It is situated on 200 acres of pristine bogland in the Connemara Gaeltacht, overlooking river, lake and Ireland’s wild Atlantic coast.

Inspired by a deep love for Irish culture, nature and heritage, two local teachers with a dream - husband and wife Charlie Troy natural scientist and Dearbhaill Standún musician and native Gaelic speaker - moved, in 1995, to this haven of peace and tranquility, off the beaten track, to realise their dream and create a place of immersive experiential learning and discovery.

Linking past, present and future, Cnoc Suain’s international award-winning experiences, stays and learning programmes inspire a more regenerative, purposeful and meaningful way of life - reconnecting and reinvigorating the mind, heart and soul.

 
 

“A beautifully restored hill village that sits on layers of Irish history, Cnoc Suain offers a thorough immersion in local culture. It is serving as a trailblazer and a powerhouse in promoting sustainability and mindfulness of the earth’s – and mankind’s – precious resources.”
