Cottage in a beautiful setting overlooking Galway Bay

If I could give Ray 10 stars I would!

Beautiful situated cottage looking out on the North Clare coast. Very convenient to Burren college of Art … the beauty spots of the county .. Safe and plenty of parking.. big garden around the house.

We had a wonderful time in this cottage.Raymond was very welcoming and hospitable.The checkin and checkout were uncomplicated and easy.We loved the bulls right next to the house and the view.

Our stay a Bishop’s Quarter was extremely relaxing, peaceful, and pleasant. It was nice to get away from blaring police sirens, revving motorcycles, and endless fireworks being shot off all times of the day. The neighbors are quiet, too (they’re cows hahah). Raymond was quick to respond to my messages and was accommodating with our needs. He was pleasant and friendly and came down a few times to check in. The cottage was clean and in a beautiful location, we walked down to Galway Bay every evening. I don’t have any complaints at all. I found the bed in the en suite to be one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in. I didn’t want to leave. This was our first experience with self-catering and it was great. If you don’t mind self-catering, I highly recommend Raymond’s yellow-door cottage!

This was a magical stay, we loved the house, the views, the serenity and the cows next door. Everything was better than expected. Thanks so much!

is well cared for and Raymond is an excellent host. The location near Ballyvaughn and just steps from Bishop's Quarter strand is ideal. I am looking forward to staying again in 2027!

The Kitchen was fully equipped for cooking and parking felt safe and easy. Check in was easy after a long drive for us. The environment was beautiful and long walks on the beach and dunes were wonderful. Host was very responsive and helpful during the stay.

We loved having our own little house with everything we needed. It was a quick walk to the beach and wet had a beautiful view. There's fields all around the house with darling, curious cows too! A cozy wood burning stove in the lounge with views of the ever changing hillsides.Also, highly recommend Monk's restaurant, which you can see across the water into Ballyvaughan.

We had a wonderful time staying at this lovable cottage. The wood stove in the living room was great while relaxing in the evenings. The on-demand hot water in the upstairs bathroom shower was terrific for starting our days exploring the Burren and Aran Islands and other attractions in the area.

We loved our stay! You can walk down to the water and see the tide pools. We had our three children with us. Ray was an amazing host and very accommodating. We are sorry we missed his visit. This cottage is in a great central location and we enjoyed the cleanliness and layout. We would give it 100 stars and definitely come back! Thank you Ray!

Our first trip to Ireland and our first stay and it did not disappoint! Well, the weather could have been better. The house is perfect and Raymond was quick to answer any questions we had. Kitchen had everything we needed, beds were comfy. We used this as a home base and did lots of driving to explore the area. Thanks again, Raymond!

A beautiful cottage, just a short walk from an ocean beach, and a short drive from some of the best seafood restaurants! A perfect, warm, dry, cozy base of operations for exploring The Burren!!

Perfect location at the northernmost point of the Burren, a great starting point for excursions. The house has everything you need, a beautiful setting, and maximum peace and quiet! Very friendly, accommodating host! Wonderful vacation, we'd love to come back!

We wish we could have stayed longer! It's a really nice modern place with plenty of space, beautiful views and a great location! Its a short walk down to the beach and a short drive into the village. Ray was very responsive. There was an issue with the hot water the night we arrived, (which turned out to be minor) Ray replied to every message quickly and it was taken care of the next morning. Highly recommended.

We spent 5 days in this beautiful college in Ballyvaughan.Location is great. Just a short walk to the beach and a 5 min drive to the village, where we could find easily a shop that provides with food and all you may need for your stay. Good starting point for the exploration of Irlands western part.The interior of the house is as described. Nothing was missing for us and we enjoyed the spacious kitchen and the cozy living room. Plenty of bedrooms and several bathrooms.Check-in was organized by Raymond in a very easy way, Raymond was always reachable and a perfect host. We would decide to come back any time.
