"We had a fabulous stay at the cottage."
Everything we could need was provided for us so that we felt comfortable as soon as we walked in; so much so that we were loath to leave at the end of our stay! We loved the peaceful setting, the beauty of the surrounding area, and the ease of visiting the nearby villages and Galway City - it really was the perfect break for us! An absolute gem as far as we are concerned!

"We had a lovely time at Brandy Harbour Cottage."
It was super cute and perfect for two friends traveling. I booked the cottage because of the sunroom and it was my favorite spot to curl up with book during some down time.
As far as location, we were well situated near Galway for a quick visit and exploring the Burren. On a push, we traveled to Doolin to catch the ferry to Inis Mor.
Mattie was friendly and welcoming and super helpful with our questions. And there are horses in the field behind the cottage sometimes. :)

"This is a lovely ground floor apartment in a cute cottage."
There is ample carparking and a lovely outdoor area. The location is so peaceful and beautiful. We enjoyed daily walks down to the pier. Kinvarra and futher into the Burren are within 15min drive in one direction and Galway about 30min in the other. Lovely spot and we really enjoyed our stay.

"Mattie and Susan's cottage is a little piece of heaven on earth."
Set in the most idyllic location on a tiny bay, with views across to The Burren. A 10min walk take you to a small harbour, but this time with views across to Galway and beyond. The cottage has pretty much everything you need and is tastefully furnished. Ideally located for exploring Galway (30 min drive to the city centre), The Burren (30 mins), The Cliffs of Moher (1 hr) and Connemara National Park (1 h 30 mins). The small village of Kilcolgan is a short drive away and has a store, a couple of pubs and a petrol station. Mattie and Susan were so welcoming and did everything to make our stay a relaxing one. Will definitely be returning one day.

"We had an amazing stay in the Brandy Harbour Cottage."
It is a lovely little cottage just outside Ballinderreen. It's in a real quiet area so there's lots of peace and comfort. And it's also so close to Oranmore or Galway for day trips. We will definitely hope to return next year. The hosts were lovely and very close by if needed.

"The advertising of this property was somewhat misleading."
The advertising gave the impression that this cottage was one property when in fact it is two apartments. One on the ground floor and one partially on both the ground floor and first floor.
There is an issue here that the advertising standards authority needs to investigate.

"When you are not from the area it is a little tricky to find but once we got there it was grand."
Initially I thought it was a one floor cottage but it is split in two. (Maybe I misread the description). On first impression it wasn’t very clean but after a quick going over it was grand. The owner was a lovely man and it was handy that he lived next door, although we didn’t need anything during our stay, but I’m sure he would have helped if needed. Really enjoyed the log burner in the evening time which was a plus from me. When I got used to the idea of others being upstairs it was a great week away. The views are lovely and two horses where in the back field during our stay. I would recommend to others and would also go back to this cottage if I was ever going that way again as it central between Galway and Clare. Great time and great journeys around the area.

"Mattie excelled in ensuring all was brilliant at the cottage and very welcoming."
We loved the cleanliness and the welcome pack. We would very readily return. We felt too that the owners were generous in leaving us things that we needed such as washing powder etc. And we loved the horses in the field at the bottom of the garden. I highly recommend and thank you Mattie for everything. We will be back!!
One suggestion.....I think your advertising is a bit misleading. We didn’t see on the advert that the cottage was divided into two apartments. It really is important you as an agency say that up front. We were lucky as the people in the second one were quiet.
