Shane was the best host I've had so far. We were a group of 4 on a road trip and even though the short notice, he was very welcoming to accommodate us. Shane welcomed us outside and our great experience started there. We all got a long very well with him, we had great talks and he helped us with places to go in the city and places we could not miss on our road trip, told us a bit of history about the property, the surrounding and Galway. He went above and beyond as a host to make sure we're feeling home. The house is big but warm, has 2 living rooms and a huge well kept front yard, the beds are new and comfortable. Its 10 min driving from city centre, and Shane was really helpful to call a friend taxi driver to bring us around for a very good price. The breakfast exceeded our expectations. Shane was brilliant and cooked a full Irish breakky for the boys, I had some fruits, juice and cereal. It would be great for family, couples and groups wanting to stay in a nice relaxing place close to city centre. There are horses in the back yard and you can do horse riding with the instructor. Shane was really nice to bring us to see the farm animals and enjoy our morning in the field. Nothing else to say, we planned to stay for a night but felt so at home that we changed our plans and stayed for 2 days. Thanks for all the tips and the lovely stay Shane!
