The Heron's Nest 16A was perfect in every way. With three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom or shower room, this house offers amazing accommodation for a family with diverse needs and a preference for their own spaces. The views from each bedroom are stunning, especially for birdwatching enthusiasts like us. A special highlight is the third floor, where you can convert the window into a small balcony, offering an ideal vantage point to observe the sealife, boats, people, seagulls, herons, and the tides changing the sea levels. It’s such a peaceful, mindful place. The house is well-heated throughout and furnished with everything you need for a practical and comfortable stay: dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, coffee machine, electric juicer, and more. We had planned to dine out every night but found the house so welcoming that we ended up enjoying cooked breakfasts and dinners there. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a thoughtful selection of provisions in the kitchen—eggs, salmon, bread, butter, jam, yogurt, ham, milk, and cereals. There’s a strong emphasis on organic and eco-friendly products, with most food being organic and cleaning supplies environmentally friendly.

Tips for other travellers
Galway, with its shops, market, and vibrant atmosphere, is right at your doorstep, yet the house remains pleasantly removed from the city noise. For families with children who enjoy the outdoors, we highly recommend visiting the local Wildlands center.

An ideal resting location. Elegant simplicity with a variety of rooms and views to relax in. Situated right on the water leading to the bay you can view seaside activity of boaters and seabirds. A truly fun place to rest in!

With our family group of 11 we rented two townhouses situated next to one another. Grandma and grandpa stayed in one townhouse with the teenage grandchildren and our adult children stayed in the other townhouse. It worked out perfect!

Excellent communication, brilliant location, lovely apartment. Please oil bedroom door, very squeaky. Only downside is the bathroom, not to the same standard as rest of apartment, eg nowhere to put towels or soapbag.
