to get started.

Lovely room that was very quiet. Bath and room were spotless and looked newly renovated...not an imperfection anywhere. Trisha was a wonderful hostess and made us feel at home from the first minute.

Charming location and property Very short drive to Oughterard Village and Moycullen and Galway City. The proprietor Pat was very kind and helpful. It was exceptionally clean and plenty of hot water. Rooms were roomy and beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was A+. Very safe country setting, with good parking. Soundproffing between room was A+, slept like a baby. No doubt, I will go back to the Moutain View Guest House.

The hostess made us feel welcome in her beautiful home. It's on a country road, no traffic noise. Breakfast was fantastic, and the coffee was excellent. We will stay again!

The owner was so accommodating!! She was always accessible and tried to meet any need we had! She made breakfast for us early so that we could head out and see sites! Very friendly and worth the visit!

The hostess, Patricia, was very welcoming despite a full house and obviously a lot to do :) The rooms were cozy and there was enough space. All was well organised and clean and an early breakfast due to a special event was no problem. The location was perfect for us: 3k outside the village, where we could easily get by car. And the best part was, that the place was totally quiet, so we slept like babies both nights :)

Nothing of any significance to complain about at all. Personally, I prefer a softer pillow, but judging by the insignificance of that complaint, you can see that we simply loved staying here. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
