We had an awesome time! Oranmore, the City that the Cottage is lokaded is a small town around 15min away from Galway. We were traveling around ireland with bus and it was easy to get there. If you do so too, I would recommand booking a Tour from Galway to the Cliffs of moher.
We met Kieran and he is a super nice host. He helped us once getting around, which was really nice.
