What a wonderful experience. We stayed for a weekend in a group of two couples, and they were among the most magical of our trip. If you enjoy history, a castle property steeped in sweeping views of Galway Bay, and close access to other charming, neighboring towns, this is your place. Keep your itinerary loose while you're here. You'll find yourself in a place where the best things to experience will only reveal themselves upon arrival.
Practical items:
There is no laundry available onsite, but you can get it done up the road near the local Spar. This was easy and convenient.
If you appreciate dogs, you'll be charmed. Karen's prize greyhounds were an added bonus to our stay. We had no idea how fun they'd be.
At present, the bathroom with bathing facilities is Jack and Jill with the bedrooms at the top of the tower. No joke, the tower bathroom had one of the best views in Galway Bay ;)
Karen is another highlight unto herself. She was flexible with our poor time-keeping upon arrival, invited us out to events, had food options available for us weary travelers, but in general she'll be as involved in your stay as you want her to be.
Convenience to the Cliffs of Moher was great for us as we were confident drivers looking to soak in as much countryside as possible.
All four of us would stay here again. Gladly.
