Connor (the owner) checked us in and he was delightful! Very friendly, showed us to our room and gave us info on the area. Our room was perfect and had tea & hot water kettle available. His wife made our amazing breakfast in the morning and we are still dreaming of the porridge. Would definitely recommend.

Connor & Margaret were fantastic! Both were warm & welcoming. Location was perfect to explore Galway, Cliffs of Mohr and surrounding areas (by car). The best part - their make to order full breakfast choices. Literally, you sit down and they are preparing while serving morning coffee/tea. Loved this place!

Nice B&B in the Burrens area. Not a lot of things to do in the area, had to drive for everything. Limited restaurant options in the area. The one restaurant that was recommended was reservation only.
