Can't recommend this place enough. It was a perfect escape from the city scene of Ireland for my wife and myself (even though Galway is only a short drive away). Brian was easily the most charming and welcoming person we met in all of Ireland. He was a perfect host. He was willing to offer numerous suggestions, great conversation, and even space if you desired it. The extremely clean living quarters had everything we needed. This cottage lived up to the high expectations that we both had of Ireland and we're looking forward to going back there sooner rather than later.
