In common with most of Connemara, the area surrounding Lough Inagh was owned by the Martins of Ballynahinch Castle from the mid-seventeenth century to the Great Famine of 1845-8. Later it was purchased by Richard Berridge, a London brewer, who built the hotel as a fishing lodge in the 1880s. Down the years, Lough Inagh Lodge was to pass to the Tennant family, and then to Carroll Industries. The present owners took possession of Inagh in 1989.
