Our host, Patricia welcomed us warmly on arrival. We were upgraded to a family room upstairs which was roomy for the two of us. The ensuite was spotless and the bed very comfortable. Patricia cooked us lovely hot breakfasts plus there were plenty of Continental Breakfast options available. We would definitely stay there again if in the area.

We had a lovely stay with Patricia. Great location about 35 mins out of Galway so you can have the best of a big city then retreat to a quiet room in the country. Full Irish breakfast available and fascinating castle and Celtic garden very close by. Had a fabulous meal in nearby Oughterard at Powers Thatch too. Would recommend if you want to be a bit out of town.

A lovely property to stay at. Great and friendly service. The local pub serves great food. Please be aware that it is not walking distance to the nearest village due to the lack of a footpath alongside the road.

Loved the fact we were given ground floor room because, as Australians, we were likely to be travelling with lots of baggage; so very thoughtful.

Patricia was a wonderful host and greeted us immdeiately upon entry. The inn is perfect for a stay in the Irish countryside. Breakfast was fantastic and, again, Patricia demonstrated the epitome of service, We certainly highly recommend this lovely B B!
