Accommodation by Lough Inagh
Hi everyone. This is my first post here, so apologies in advance if I put it in the wrong place.
I'm planning a walk with friends in Connemara this summer. We're hoping to stitch together the Maumturks and the 12 Bens over two days.
Does anyone know if there's any accommodation at the bottom end of Lough Inagh? My Harvey map mentions a 'Galway Outdoor Education Centre' and a 'Lough Valley Inn', but I can't find any reference to either on the internet.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers
Paul

Many thanks Jean, appreciate the info. I'm guessing 'Lough Valley Inn' is no longer open?
