We loved staying at Brian's Hideaway. The view was gorgeous and the place so peaceful. It is spacious and the kitchen is well stocked with basics. It is always great to have access to things like spices and foil while you are travelling. We had lovely weather and got up to date with our washing because there is a washing machine supplied as well. The hideaway is close to Galway and easy to get to the Connemara loop.
Brian is a very friendly host and he has provided good maps of the area to use. There is a great supermarket in Barna.
