We rented this cottage for two weeks. It is a lovely cottage with two cute ponies. Evelyn welcomed us and was very helpful with getting settled in. We did not stay the entire two weeks because our friends were joining us and we knew there was not enough room for 4 adults. Therefore, we stayed in Galway with our friends, and then returned to the cottage for 3 more lovely nights. Had a great time.

Wir waren drei Tage in dem Cottage (2 Erw, 1 Kleinkind). Es ist klein, für einen kurzen Aufenthalt war es aber ausreichend. Die Einrichtung ist alt, aber alles funktioniert und es war sauber.

Evelyn war sehr nett und kam vorbei um nach der Heizung zu sehen (mit Nachtspeicher kennen wir uns nicht aus).

Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis ist wirklich top!

A peaceful and tranquil setting

We almost expected John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara to greet us when we arrived.

An ideal centre for seeing all the "tourist places" but secluded for a peaceful, quiet rest.

The cottage is clean, with all basic furniture items, cutlery dishes etc... Lots of space to enjoy in the summer, lovely trees outside. Inside not very roomy but that clearly is described. The wifi works OK. Some problems however did spoil it a bit for me:

- The heating (electrical) was on with big signs on all the radiators and switches "don't switch off" "Don't change the settings" etc...The temperature inside was way too high, up to 23 c. In the evening when back inside I kept the front door half open and at night I opened the window in my bedroom. The outside temperature was cold, 5 to 10°c at most, but inside was way too warm. probably expensive for the owner too. When the caretaker came on the last day I told her she said "you should have switched it off". Sur why the heck did you put all these signs then?

- There's hardly any pressure at all in the hot water system. When you take a shower you get a trickle of warm water and it takes forever to rinse off the soap and shampoo.

- The fridge is small and the poorly insulated freezer compartment gets hardly cold enough to produce cubes, let alone store a couple of frozen food items.

These problems should be easy enough to fix. It's a pity they existed in the first place.

The cottage sat on a very quiet road surrunded around the sides and back by old trees and fields. Inside it was warm and cosy. The beds very comfortable, and it was very clean. Everything you needed was there. Would reccomend to friends and family, and we would like to visit again and stay in the cottage.
