Breda's cottage is in a fabulous location, so you can't go wrong with it when selecting a place that provides a convenient location to downtown Galway. From her home, all you have to do is turn right, then drive less than a mile, turn left, stay on that same road for a very short distance, then the first large public parking lot that you see on your left is the perfect jumping off point for only 5 Euros, where only a very short walk will take you into the heart of the city. If you are slightly unnerved by how to operate the appliances in the home, where to go shop, eat, relax, etc., Breda provides her guests with a very convenient 3 ring binder filled with all that necessary information. Both myself and my wife traveled there during the Christmas Season, where not only the guests have multiple things to accomplish while away on vacation, but the home owners have those same family obligations as well. However, those obligations did not stop Breda from coming over to check up on us to see how everything was going, even though she had a few Christmas events framed around her visit. Her communication with us could not have been any better, and she was always willing to provide additional taxi reservation assistance knowing that we did not have an international phone SIM card. Her amenities are perfect, which includes a small, yet functional, convection oven. Her bed is a perfect king size, and is very comfortable. If we are ever in the Galway area again, we will have no reservations about staying at Breda's place.
