We very much enjoyed our recent two night stay with Mary. Our rooms were spacious, breakfast made to individual tastes, and the location is perfect if you like quiet- the stars at night were fabulous! Our trip to Clifden was enriched with Mary's suggestion to take the Sky Road and then motor on to Kylemore Abbey. After a late afternoon... More

My husband and I just recently spent two nights at Carraig B & B near Galway. Mary's place is super cute, very neat and clean with friendly and warm service. The house is approximately 10 minutes from the centre of Galway and is surrounded by farm land. Super quiet and serene surroundings minutes away from the bustling town of Galway.... More

A delightful, quiet, relaxed place to stay. Mary was wonderful, nothing was a problem. We had a little trouble finding the place, and after a brief call for directions Mary drove to collect us! A home away from home. Highly recommend.

This place was awesome. Mary was a great host and so friendly. The breakfast was so good, Mary puts her personal touch on everything. She was helpful with directions and made us feel at home. Galway is not too far away at all. Also, the cliffs of moher, highly recommend, those are about an hour of winding, scenic roads away.

Before to come, we're afraid by the fact that wasn't expensive. And actually, everything were perfect and we're very surprised!!!! :D Mainly by the lovely host, Mary, and the very nice landscape and cows! We felt like at home, or in week-end at aunt's house. The irish breakfast was copious and excellent! It's very closed to the city centre (If... More

we had an excellent stay here as Mary was very helpful and kind and a great hostess. She was very accommodating to our needs. The house was beautiful and very comfortable and the breakfast was superb as it was freshly cooked every morning with a variety of drinks and cereals as well as a healthy fry.
