If you're ever traveling to the Galway area in the west of Ireland I would most heartily recommend you stay with Rory O'Beirn. The cottage is right on the water where from the sofa and soft armchair, you can view sail boats at anchor or sailing about the inlet. Rory made our stay additionally comfortable by allowing an early check-in (we were exhausted from the overnight flight), providing tips on restaurants, walks, drives, and special attractions. I'd put him in the realm of an Airbnb Superhost.
