This place was awesome. Mary was a great host and so friendly. The breakfast was so good, Mary puts her personal touch on everything. She was helpful with directions and made us feel at home. Galway is not too far away at all. Also, the cliffs of moher, highly recommend, those are about an hour of winding, scenic roads away.

The irish breakfast was copious and excellent! It's very closed to the city centre (If... More

This b&b is absolutely magnificent. Service goes above and beyond. Mary is the most wonderful hostess. Very personal and tends to every need and want. A bit outside of town (around 10-15€ taxi to get there from town central) but well worth it! Highly recommend it!!! You won't be disappointed at all!! Mary has lots of ways to help guests,... More

We have to mention the amazing breakfast, looking at the big green grass and the cows. A perfect taste of... More
