This is the perfect location to visit Galway. We must have been really tired driving here because at first we passed the castle and upon driving back we saw it right away, it’s hard to miss. Anyway, we were greeted by John who was such an amazing and gracious host. He showed us our room and let us settle in before offering us some coffee and giving us a tour of the castle. It is clear that he cares deeply about the castle. We appreciated the overall experience and loved learning about the history of the castle. It’s a short drive into town and easy to come and go as you please. Our room was fantastic with a big bed and lots of space and even had a bottle of wine waiting for us. We left early for the Cliffs of Moher and John was nice enough to set out a breakfast spread for us early in the morning. Overall, this was our favorite place to stay in all of Ireland.
