The listing was accurate, very comfortable accommodation, wonderful views across Galway Bay, well stocked kitchen, plenty of books and children's toys. The host, Brian Nolan, was friendly and welcoming with lots of advice about places to visit, at the same time respecting our privacy.

There is not much to do in the immediate vicinity so you need a car to explore the many interesting sites within driving distance, including Connemara National Park, Galway city, the Burren, the Cliffs of Moher, the Arran Islands.
