An enticing Irish cottage in a superb position for exploring beautiful County Galway and the picturesque Burren, this cosy bolthole is perfect for a romantic getaway or a small family stay. Sleeping three guests, the two-bedroom hideaway is 2 miles from the village of Kinvara and 15.5 miles from Galway. Striking Dunguaire Castle, the most photographed castle in Ireland, is just 1 mile from the cottage, while Island Eddy, accessed by foot, at certain times of the year, or boat, is 10 miles away. Traught Beach, 6 miles away, is a great choice for family swimming and fun on the sand. Head into the colourful, port village of Kinvara to potter in the shops and dine out.

Enter to find the heart of this holiday home is its lounge/diner, where you can light the oil-fired wood burner in winter and gather around it to recount the adventures of the day and make plans for tomorrow. There is also a table for your romantic meals for two or family dinners together. The sofa in this room can be transformed into a bed by prior agreement. Head into the kitchen to find everything you need to help you prepare meals and snacks for your party with the provisions you have bought locally. The cosy bedroom at this cottage includes a double and a single. There is also a family shower room.

The enclosed garden is a great addition for anyone with children and pets. Adults will also enjoy soaking up the sunshine out here on warm spring and summer days.

We had a very nice stay in this beautiful cottage near Kinvarra. Located in a very calm and inviting area it was the ideal starting point to go on trips and visit some of the stunning places in your country. We thank you for hosting this sweet cottage that we could always look forward to return to at the end of our day.

Had a wonderful week at Mickeys' Cottage, Ballyclery, Such a quaint, cosy cottage, perfect for my daughter and me. Lots of rain but comfortable and had everything we needed. Very easy drive to Kinvarra, a most charming village! Spent a few days in Galway, also easy access. Warm, cosy and comfortable, an idyllic getaway!

Staying in the cottage was a pleasure. The place was very comfortable and together with my dog we really enjoyed evenings by the fireplace. Amazing way to unwind. Very good location, walking distance to Kinvara and 30 min drive to Galway. Very nice and friendly owner . I would strongly recommend this holiday home.
