Our stay at Ann’s Galway home was wonderful. The home is beautifully decorated and the quality of the renovation is exceptional. For travelers, it has exactly what you need: 2 large comfortable bedrooms upstairs, 2 very roomy bathrooms, loads of hotel quality towels, excellent wifi, a well-stocked, modern kitchen and a large island-style kitchen table to accommodate your laptop, maps, phone chargers, etc. There’s lots of room to move around and feel at home. But the best part of Ann’s home is the location. The home is very quiet and secluded and faces a lovely canal. Once you cross the canal it’s just a short walk over the lovely River Corrib to the heart of Galway with its entertaining street life, restaurants, shopping and pubs. Ann highly recommended Ard Bia (right next to the Spanish Arch on the docks) and it was outstanding. I think I will have to return just for the Samphire! (I do suggest making reservations, especially on a weekend.) Street parking was not too difficult and the school up the street offers very inexpensive parking. It’s very easy to get out of the city to explore Connemara. We were not able to meet Ann but her friend Victoria was available to answer our questions and both were available by e-mail. We highly recommend Ann’s home.
