Loved the Irish porridge and fresh fruit salad for breakfast. Warm and welcoming hostess.

We were going to Inis More so the location was very convenient. Friendly hosts, quiet and excellent breakfast.

Great place to stay. Well away from Galway. Beautiful location. Room great.

The room was very spacious, with a nice view, very cozy and comfortable. Both room and bathroom were very tidy and clean. There is a nice and cozy living room with a fireplace that is just lovely! Breakfast was S P E C T A C U L A R! Seriously, the most delicious Irish breakfast we ever had, many compliments to the owner, she is a great chef :) Both owners were very friendly and lovely. Really a great experience, we were sad to leave!

Great hosts very helpful, nice cosy rooms, great breakfast. Enjoyed the stay very much!

Lovely room and warm and friendly owner great breakfast and excellent service

Awesome breakfast, onwers very friendly, super comfortable bed

Cute little cottage with thatched roof. Room was comfy and cozy. The owner was delightful and enhanced our stay with her knowledge and recommendations. We would definitely stay there again.

Great location to explore Aran Islands. Rooms are very clean and light. Moira is a lovely host who couldn't do enough to make our 3 night stay comfortable and relaxing. Breakfasts were outstanding. We left behind a kindle and she went out of her way to post it on to one of our next stays. The local pub in Spiddal is fantastic for traditional Irish music. A little driving tip - avoid Galway traffic at peak hour - horrendous.

The hosts were very hospitable and kind. The breakfast was delicious. The location within 15 minutes of the Rossaveal Ferry was superb.
