Karen is such a warm, kind, welcoming hostess! She gave us such a thorough list of places to see, restaurants and pubs to go to while in Galway. The cottage is warm, clean, cozy and private like a wonderful oasis to wake up to. At the end of a busy day exploring Galway we were excited to return "home" to the cottage to relax. The location is awesome. We were able to walk everywhere from the beach to all the shops, restaurants and pubs. You owe it to yourself to book your stay with Karen & Sean in Galway!!! We will be back for sure!!!
