We had a fantastic time at the cottage. Hugh and Mary are very uncomplicated hosts. We stopped at their B&B just outside Clifden (main road from Galway) and Hugh took us to the cottage himself. The cottage itself is just as described - very light, spacious and nicely decorated rooms, with all amenities that one could wish for. Note for coffee drinkers: There is a french press available to make coffee.
Nothing to do with the cottage itself, may have been to do with the glorious weather we had but there were a lot of midges (small mosquitos), especially at dusk - bring insect repellant!
