About this property

Athenry 6 miles. This delightful detached cottage is situated six miles from the medieval heritage town of Athenry in County Galway. This modern, four bedroom property boasts spacious and bright living accommodation, providing plenty of room for a family group or for friends looking to get together in this lovely part of the Emerald Isle. Set over two floors, the open plan living area offers a stylish well-presented kitchen which leads through to the dining and sitting areas, where you can stretch out in front of the multi-fuel stove at the end of a busy day. The conservatory offers a second area for dining, a lovely room to sit and wonder at the rolling countryside and where you will find a spot for star-gazing later in the evening. With a second sitting room offering a place to get away from it all, there is plenty of space for everyone. There is the added bonus of a games room too, where guests of all ages can unwind over a game of pool, or for the keep fit enthusiasts, you can hop on the treadmill or lift a few weights to go that extra mile. The ground floor also offers a double bedroom with an en-suite jacuzzi bath and shower room, together with a main family bathroom. Upstairs you will find three further bedrooms, which also boast fully marble tiled en-suites offering a choice of power or raindrop shower heads. Outside, the patio offers wonderful views, the perfect place to enjoy an alfresco breakfast before you set off for the day’s travels, or take time to relax and unwind in peaceful surroundings at the end of a busy day. On a fine day, you may even catch a glimpse of Croagh Patrick Mountain, an important site of pilgrimage in County Mayo. Galway City is just a short drive from this idyllic holiday home, as is the stunning coastline, the spectacular west coast and the range of beaches that this part of Ireland has to offer. Whatever time of year you visit, you will be assured a warm welcome and a wonderful Irish experience.

    Lovely spacious property with plenty of room and all the facilities you could need. Excellent off street parking and garden. Remote so you need a car but lovely and quiet and still easily accessible to Galway (20 mins). Ideal for families with young children. John was always on the emails checking we were ok and couldn’t be more helpful. We hope to stay again for the rally next year! Thank you

    It looks like a double wide mobile home on the webpage and I was worried abouot space. It is , in fact, a nice ranch style home with enough room for all and even room for a pool table which my family used a lot. The video machines had a broken sign on them so we did not even attempt that , but no one cared , I don't think. The hot tub is an inflatable and was not available are we didn't preorder it. WE were only there two nights , but we really enjoyed it.
