'The Swallow Loft' at Leitriff House - 19thC Stone Barn conversion
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (160)
"We had a lovely stay at the Swallow Loft. It is a very unique property perfectly close to Galway’s city center. Peggy was very responsive especially with the issue with the humidity level we were experiencing in the place. I think this place is best for 2 people as the bedroom/bathroom at the lower level smelled a little musty. The overall cleaning looked ok but not fresh."

"Our family reunion of 6 stayed here for a week and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this amazing 450 year old Tower. We had meals and played games in the great room, viewed the sunsets from the rooftop ramparts and generally lived like the Royal family (minus the servants of course). It served as an unforgettable and spectacular setting for a long overdue reunion for our family. We would return in a heartbeat."

Luxurious House in Renvyle - situated on the Wild Atlantic Way

"There are not enough words to describe Debbie's home, it's truly magical. Surrounded by beauty and nature, we really didn't want to leave. The view is to die for and watching the animals in that wee pocket was just lovely (rams, donkeys, birds and Ziggy the dog and Lily the cat having their daily fight ) The house itself was wonderful, big comfy beds and the views from the front windows werte to die for. The owner Debbie was just lovely, kind, friendly and helpful with any queries or local info...

Beautiful Oakleaf Cottage, Westport, Co Mayo
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (28)
"This well appointed immaculate home provided all the comforts of home for our group of golfers from the USA. The beds were SO comfortable and the separate bathrooms for each bedroom were a real bonus. The property is tucked away in the beautiful, quiet West Ireland countryside and yet is only a five minute drive from the town center. The backyard is heavenly with a wonderful view of Chroagh Patrick. Áine is an outstanding host and communicated with us every step of the way. Margaret was also...

"We spent three nights here and really enjoyed our time. The apartment was clean and checking in and out was a breeze. The location is walkable to a lot of restaurants and is just a short walk to the Latin Quarter. There is also a small Tesco just up the street. But the killer feature of this place is the amazing view out across Galway Bay. Pictures don’t do it justice, it is spectacular. Thanks for a great stay!"

"Sunnybank House is exactly as described. Highlights for our group of 18 family and relatives include: evening gatherings around the two peat-burining fireplaces with a variety of Irish Whiskeys; a very short walk to the pubs and restaraunts in Clifden, having a chef cook a delicious dinner in our own kitchen for all of us to enjoy, sightseeing all around Connemara; golf at the Connemara Links course just 15 minutes away; and wonderful pub visits out in the country...especially Paddy Coynes pub...

"Coach House was beautiful property and walking distance to everything. Property managers were very responsive and kind. Being from the US there were a few things we had to figure out, like holding door handle up to lock the door and emptying out a water chamber in the dryer, but those were truly the only blips and that was just lack of knowledge on my part. This would be a great rental for families or couples. All bedrooms are upstairs so not handicap accessible. The huge tub in the upstairs...

9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (35)
"We had an enjoyable stay in the cottage. There is a lot of useful information material, but some information was outdated (WiFi password, name and number of the local manager, number of the proprietor). This made it difficult to contact manager or proprietor when we encountered a problem. Once contact was established, the problem was resolved smoothly. There is a nice 8 km walk starting from the cottage, the finest part of which is a stretch of coastline that is only accessible at low tide....

The Snug Townhouse

The Snug Townhouse

5/5 Excellent
"Pros: Easy location to walk everywhere! Stylish and modern. Good deal with parking garage close by. Amazing water pressure for shower. Despite being on a busy street the room was rather quiet. We were top floor. Cons: Beds were not the comfiest! Springy. Lots of stairs (no elevator). "
