Shanlin´s house and garden are beutiful (photos are real). Our room was very tidy but we can not deny that the room and bathroom were quite small (almost no storage place) and voices could be easily heart from the other rooms and corridor but what can you expect... The wifi didn´t work very well, neather did the tv. For their... More

I stayed here for 3 nights. Seamus and family are extremely nice and the rate was very reasonable. Everything was spotlessly clean. Bed was comfy. Room was smallish and bathroom very small. Breakfast was hearty - I love the Irish bacon, sausage and black pudding.

I am not sure how this B&B has been rated so highly. There is no denying the owner is super friendly and helpful but that doesn't make it great. This is one of those all too familiar purpose built B&Bs and cheaply built at that. The rooms are small, have only the one chair, the walls are paper thin, the... More

I was travelling on business and would normally stay in hotels but at this time of year they can be a bit on the pricey side especially in Galway so I decided to seek out a nice B&B for my two nights in Galway. From the moment I called to make my booking I was delighted with the service. They... More

Stayed here for 5 nighs for a business trip. While Seamus is a pleasant host the B&B is not bad but nothing to write home about. My room was rather small with a cramped bathroom. Breakfast was OK but nothing unusual. WiFi was rather patchy and you can hear the nearby road quite a bit. Saying that, it was also... More

we were warmly welcomed by our host Mr Seamus. The room was perfect. It is a small distance from Galway city. Tesco is few mins away and there are lots of restaurants in the vicinity. Our child was fascinated by the mother daughter duo of Sandy and Jess (dogs). Jess even posed with us for photos.We were served mouth watering... More

Wonderful, but all-too-brief visit. Both to this very comfortable B&B, and to Ireland in general. Mr. Grady was the consummate host. Personal service, accommodating and engaging. Great "local knowledge" tips for touring the area. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality. I promised to bring my wife with me, and stay here on our next trip to the Emerald... More

I spent about 5 weeks in Shanlin House, and I have to say that I enjoyed every single moment there.

I have to say, upon initially driving up to Shanlin House, we were a little skeptical because it was located on a slightly busy road. It turned out to be a totally quiet and relaxing place, and we got excellent sleep both nights. Seamus was very welcoming as soon as we got there and gave us lots of recommendations on... More
