good start

Culchie from the Bronx ny, us
Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Being in a private, quiet location off secondary roads was what I wanted. There's nothing in the immediate area, which is a good thing. It turned out to be a pretty good starting point to visit both local relatives and also to drive to Connemara. I didn't go into Galway as I can see a town anywhere. The kitchen, bathroom and bedroom were especially handy. I sensed I was in a home where generations of good people lived. That's a nice thing to wake up to. I'd rent there again instead of a b&b. If you go, bring some apples or carrots for the pony in the adjoining field.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your lovely review. I'm so glad that you had a good time and appreciated the tranquil surroundings of the cottage.

A Gem

Review Submitted: October 13, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
I stayed in this cottage for 9 glorious days. Granted I was not here much, however I always had a nice cozy place to lay my head after a day of exploring west Ireland. My only neighbors were sheep, and they were good and quiet neighbors. The pictures are exact. Evelyn the property manager was more than accomdating and even lent me her hair dryer, the one and only thing I forgot in Texas. Headford and Shrule offer good restaurants and pubs. The quiet of this location is all a city dweller needs as a total get away! I have nothing negative to say about this cottage. If I have the chance I will stay again.

the cottage everything offers what you needs in a holiday apartment. It is very well-arranged and above all comfortable. We have very nice days. The rest which you can have is a dream. When you will see the western side of Ireland it is on a perfect place. We would book any time again.
