Place was awesome. Great combination of old historic and modern functionality. Location is great near Ougtherard and handy enough to Galway. The view in the back yard is stunning.

Our Grand children loved the bunk beds they took over the old cottage side as it had the larger TV they insisted on sleeping in both rooms They had an absolute ballThey enjoyed playing o. The lawned area
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
The property owner needs to address the following issues;
Damp across the property and mould in the bedrooms.
Broken cabinetry in the kitchen which is both unsightly and dangerous with young children
Upgrade the beds in two of the bedrooms. It is unacceptable to advertise a property as modern and luxurious with broken bunk beds and grimey couches. Too much wear and tear for a seemingly luxurious property.
