Brian was a wonderful host! My boyfriend and I were welcomed not only by Brian's friendly, and helpful hints about Galway, but also by his adorable dog Puff! The cottage was cozy, filled with everything we needed (towels, tea, coffee, eggs and more)! We had a wide selection of funny movies to watch and games to play. We were never short of things to do. Especially with Brian's expert advice on where to go in the surrounding area, and in Galway city! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! We would love to visit in the warmer months where we can really take in all the beautiful landscape that Barna has to offer!
