If you are going to stay in Cong this is by far the only place I would suggest staying. Teresa opened up her home to me while I was doing a work study program at the castle for a week. She went out of her way everyday to make sure I got to and from the castle when I needed to and even helped me find a way from Galway to Cong when I got stuck. Her home is extremely clean and friendly, and her cooking is unbelievable. She really made me feel like i was a part of her family and if I ever end up back in Ireland I will go out of my way just to stay at her house.
