Offering free parking just 8 minutes’ walk from Galway’s centre, Ash Grove House offers freshly cooked, full Irish breakfasts. In a quiet, residential location, the B&B is less than 10 minutes’ walk from Galway Cathedral. Breakfast was spectacular with the nicest host you could ever ask for, the system for preordering is so cute and adds to the cozy cottage vibe. The room was huge, clean and the many windows made it feel even more open. Perfect if your group is larger than two, you can stay in the same room while giving each and everyone their own space.

Offering river views, The Herons Rest Townhouse B&B is an accommodation located in Galway, 1.6 km from Grattan Beach and 700 metres from Eyre Square. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. This 4-star holiday home offers private entrance. The Herons Rest Boutique was stunning and the perfect place for my family to stay in Galway. It is a wonderful location that was perfect to explore the city. Sorcha was more than helpful in answering any questions I had and was the most thoughtful and helpful host. It was our favourite stop on our trip of Ireland. The breakfast basket was a wonderful addition and there was an abundance of information about the property so everything was simple. It was absolutely wonderful and I would totally recommend.
