La casetta carinissima immersa nella natura
l assenza totale di personale sul posto anche in orario di check in
Les lits confortables, si vous aimez faire du camping au prix d’un Hôtel c’est l’endroit par excellence
Le personnel ignorait comment fonctionnait le Wi-Fi, mot de passe ,etc. La qualité de la douche, serviettes??? La complexité du chauffage.
Great stay, hidden away, be great for a larger group!
Alojamiento amplio
It was great place for the family stay, very quite. Great location as well, 30 mins drive to Galway city but its remote location, so you need a car.
It could be a bit cleaner, for example spider webs in corners but we are not too picky and overall experience was great. Can't really complain.
Casetta in legno molto carina, immersa nel verde, buona posizione
Le lenzuola non sembravano pulite, non abbiamo potuto utilizzare uno dei letti a castello perché sotto al cuscino c'era della carta igienica. Purtroppo era sera tardi quando ce ne siamo accorti, quasi mezzanotte, e non abbiamo potuto contattare host per far cambiare le lenzuola
Posizionata in una zona di campagna non lontano da Galway, è un cottage in legno un po’ datato ma caratteristico. Le camere sono comode.
Un unico bagno per otto persone ha reso un po’ scomoda la permanenza, sicuramente un bagno in più non sarebbe stato male. Pulizia discreta, la cappa sopra i fornelli inguardabile.
La tranquilidad del entorno.
Las toallas estaban sucias y no quise seguir mirando por si acaso.

I loved everything. The cabin was amazing, so clean and cosy met the owner who was a gent. We were only meant to stay 1 night but booked a 2nd. I would highly recommend the red robin nest. I'm already planning another trip. Perfect location to get away from everything and relax..
There was nothing i didn't like
Cute cabin. Quiet surroundings. Floor fans available for use. Easy check in. Foosball table was nice addition! Cabin has a lot of potential!
Cold water was clear however hot water appeared to come from green holding tank with algae on surface. Killed several spiders and removed cobwebs in the bedrooms - cabin was swept up but needs a good deep clean. Mattresses were very uncomfortable-could feel all of the springs.
Lovely quiet location in the heart of the countryside with a little walk to a lake or turlough. Very close to Galway and the Burren. I
Good. Cleanliness was good. Description was ok. Communication was good. Check-in seamless and the host was helpful.
Whilst the accommodation is spacious see comment about the bunk beds and there is a distinct lack of hanging space. One of the bunk beds is only really suitable for a child as very difficult to get into.
Was a great little cabin. Everything we needed
Nothing.
Location was quiet and in the middle of nature but close enough to different villages.
There was only a hotplate. No proper stove or oven.
Lovely area and beautiful cabin
La limpieza del lugar y todas las facilidades que tenía la instalación. Sin duda volvería a quedarme.
Bunk beds for the kids was a nice touch
Lots of ants in bedroom 2 and in the kitchen. Made my two children quite upset.
This place was amazing! We absolutely loved it, especially the fact that everything was made of wood. It was extremely cozy in there. Booking this house save us from another ruiny night in a tent, it was also spacious enough so we could dry all our things.
It is very homely as you walk in, the kitchen is the perfect size, and the sitting room is the perfect size. The shower has good water pressure. The bunk beds are very well hand-made and comfortable 😁 it is a verypeacefulplaceto stay. . I would definitely stay here again 💯
Unfortunately, the double bed could do with a new mattress, and the cooking facility could be upgraded.
Need brighter lights and mirrors in rooms.
Location& quaintness.
Needs to upgrade mattresses. Ad a gas grill out back, better signage in town if possible.
La cabaña es muy bonita
Telarañas y polvo por todos sitios Sábanas sucias con chocolate y papeles de chocolatinas La cocina no tiene potencia La tostadora no va, el horno sucio….
Kids loved the bunk beds! We really loved that there was a Christmas tree.
Chalet comfortable et bien équipé. Bonne situation géographique. Parfait pour visiter Galway et les environs !
Petite cabane en bois dans la nature, parking sur place Grande table et grand salon avec canapés et fauteuils Intérieur spacieux dans l'ensemble Pratique pour visiter Galway par exemple
Mais à côté d'une autre cabane, donc pourrait être bruyante suivant les voisins Cuisine très médiocre : - pas pratique par rapport à la capacité du logement 8 personnes (mini-four avec 2 petites plaques électriques trop en hauteur) - ustensiles/équipement vraiment sales (four et airfryer pratiques mais très sales) - bouilloire pleine de calcaire et avec le fond brûlé (posée sur la plaque électrique ?) - Pas de verre à eau tout simple, à peine assez pour 4 personnes - torchon tâché (eau de javel à priori) Salle de bain moyenne : - joints sales, porte de douche bancale, serviettes de toilettes tachées ATTENTION : eau dans la SdB non potable (ou mal filtrée ?). Un système de pompe (et filtration ?) est utilisé pour alimenter toute l'eau dans la SdB (WC, lavabo et douche) à partir d'une cuve à eau (pas pour la cuisine il semble). L'eau a vraiment une odeur de vase et la pompe fait du bruit à chaque fois qu'on tire de l'eau et donne une odeur de fioul (gaz ?) prononcé dans la cabane Enfin la terrasse est d'apparence agréable mais le mobilier n'est ni confortable, ni suffisant (4 places max autour d'un touret en bois avec des bancs fixes trop étroits). OK juste pour boire un verre à 4 mais pas plus
The location and cabin is spectacular.
Das ganze Haus war super. Sogar der Esstisch war bei unserer Ankunft bereits eingedeckt. Das ganze Haus vermittelte eine tolle, skandinavisch anmutende Gemütlichkeit. Ich habe lange nicht mehr so eine wunderbare Stille erlebt. Von der naheliegenden Autobahn / Schnellstraße hörte man nichts.
Casetta bellissima immersa nella natura!! Bella, confortevole, calda accogliente! Sembra di vivere in un film! Pioveva ed è stato fantastico
Niente..
Le côté atypique du logement, la deco et la localisation
Au premier abord un chalet qui semble chaleureux et calme. Cependant, il n’est pas entretenu. L’échelle pour monter au lit du dessus dans la chambre des enfants était cassée et dangereuse tandis que le lit tenait par une planche de bois peu rassurante. Le chalet peut accueillir 8 personnes mais ne possède qu’une plaque de cuisson sur un mini four avec deux plaques sur lesquelles deux grandes poêles ne rentrent pas… nous avons dû faire le repas en plusieurs fois et cela a pris longtemps! Il y a beaucoup de poussière, de toile d’araignée et la vaisselle était très sale! Enfin, la communication avec le propriétaire était aléatoire. ma fille a oublié un de ses doudous dans son lit j’ai demandé s’il avait été retrouvé ( c’était une bouillotte assez grosse, si les draps avaient été changés il est impossible sue personne ne l’ait retrouvé) et après deux messages je n’ai eu aucun retour. Nous ne sommes restés qu’une nuit mais nous ne recommandons pas ce logement.
The cabin was spacious and the location is good.
The mattress in one the buck beds, was clearly old, with bumps and you could feel the springs. Also, one of the top buck bed didn’t look very sturdy. The kitchen utensils and the stove were old and weren’t clean. The bathroom was clean, however the shower water was boiling making it almost impossible to take a shower. In general, I think this space is clearly overpriced for the conditions offered.

A beautiful cabin, fully stocked for a perfect night away for a group of 5 friends. The beds were very cosy and the rooms were spacious.
Couldn't fault a thing!
Spacious, warm, clean and out of the way. Went here as a surprise trip for my sons birthday. It exceeded expectations. The kitchen was surprisingly well equipped enough so that we could have pancakes and bacon before hitting the road.
It was cute and clean The caretaker/owner ?? Was exceptional nice , he helped us when I called and the GPS. Could not find it and had us on the freeway saying you have reached your destination... He explained what we needed to do and met us at the top of the ramp which took us 30 minutes to get to him
Said it has a full kitchen, not even close Microwave, air fryer, and a tiny convection hot plate does not qualify as full kitchen No fry pan And it was super hot in the cabin from the hot water unit that they have ... Need to update to tankless water system The address on the website needs to be updated as Google maps will not take you there from address listed ( if you type in red ranch yes ,red Robin no )
We have been here before and always love it. We met the host and he provided us with a fan during the heat wave which was very welcome and appreciated 😊 There were lovely updates since we stayed last year like lights outside and more flowers and plants. The table was set lovely and there was an air fryer! Plenty of towels and clean sheets. There was tea and coffee in the press and hand wash and toiletries It’s an amazing place to Escape the rat race
Not in any way a criticism, just a note that some of the rungs on the bunk bed ladders seem loose/wobbly. Also on bending down in the master bedroom I noticed the legs on the bed look very narrow for such a high bed. It wasn’t an issue for us, but I was cautious in case it was unsteady.
Cute set up and secluded area.. something different
Nothing to dislike - same as advertised
The cabin is superb with everything you may need for a short stay,nice and quiet location,a very friendly host,if you will have a chance to meet him (we were lucky,he met us at the entrance to Red Ranch Cabins)... If you will be passing by,100% recommend choosing one of the cabins there instead of any posh hotel.
Completely nothing,everything was just perfect
The rooms, the beds, the general living area. The peaceful countryside location, the heating. The helpful YouTube instructional videos.
The kitchen was missing a sponge or cloth for use in washing dishes. Unfortunately was unable to wash dishes due to lack of sponge 🧽. Some paper towel and tongs would be very helpful when cooking food. Other than that everything else was great.
Beautiful accommodation with plenty of space for families to relax. Plenty of towels and shower products available. Kitchen fully fitted with airfryer, kettle, hob and microwave.
Last minute booking. Very accommodating.
It's a nice cabin and more spacious than it looks from the outside.
Thin walls, no black-out curtains or blinds, ants in the kitchen. The kitchen was not well equipped, e.g. not enough plates, cups, cutlery, etc.
We really enjoyed our stay in the Red Robin's Nest, and found the beds quite comfortable (and so many of them!). The location was convenient to see many things (by car) and we enjoyed being surrounded by nature.
The owner was very kind to help us while the area had been affected badly by storm weather.
Nothing!
Red Robins nest was fabulous, very pretty and unique, lovely touches making our stay very special, our girls loved the beautiful Christmas tree and giant teddy waiting to greet us when we arrived
Nothing
Very spacious and cosy.
Bunk bed fittings were a little dodgy.
The cabins lie nestled in trees and dense vegetation, protecting the site from any noise from the motorway passing close by. Lovingly designed and equipped with everything you could wish for, our stay was very pleasant and we wish we could have stayed for more than just one night. Both thumbs up!
Reasonable location off motorway, quite and no hassles.
Serious safety concerns. Electric circuits looked not up to code i.e. electrical outlets behind kitchen sink. We ended up going away for couple of hours extra roaming to avoid staing inside and not showering (based on earlier observation) and running away as soon as possible in the morning.
Everything great cabin and location
Lovely and cosy, our girls loved the bunk beds, it was a great adventure
No complaints
Brilliant! Would definitely go back.
Amazing place, I would say it has that “special something” ,rooms that can fit 6-8 people so very good choice for the family trip.
Nothing to complain about. Good value for money.
The space and the setting off the road. It was very homely and there were plenty of basics in the kitchen and fresh milk in the fridge, which was much appreciated. Toiletries were appreciated. Bedding was fresh and clean and beds were comfortable. We recorded 16 birds on our Merlin app which was fantastic. Lovely having an outdoor place to sit in peace after a busy day sightseeing.
I think the cleaning was a bit hit and miss. Bathroom spotless though. There were alot of heavy cobwebs on the patio. The corner of the main bedroom had been left out of the cleaning process. Noticed as was plugging phone behind night stand. Windows could have been cleaner and the tiles behind the hob were visibly greasy. But I'm nitpicking, the owners were charming and it is a real holiday spot, only 30 mins from the chaos in Galway city. Great location.
The key was left in a lock box, so its collection was super easy.
The location is super convenient for visiting Galway and the host was really responsive and helpful. The table is great for boardgames and the tea bags and coffee were very welcome. Would recommend and would stay again if in the area!

Difficulty in finding the property,no instructions on how to put the heating on, wifi kept dropping off and our granddaughter need it to do her homework as we are here from Australia.
Lots of nicely decorated rooms. The kitchen and living room was cozy. Country location away from the city.
Unfortunately, they had an ant problem and we also killed two big spiders. Rafters were dusty. Shower was temperamental and heat was set on a timer and we woke up cold.
Very spacious for a family of four! Two out of the three bedrooms had bunk beds. Located within few steps from a stable and you are surrounded by nature!
The lodge was so homely and set in a lovely, quiet location. Loads of wildlife around to watch & wile time away.
The cooking facilities were a tad difficult to cook meals but we managed. Otherwise, the lodge was perfect for us.
place is supercosy, heating was perfectly timed, we found all we needed to cook, beds were huge and super clean, and got a Xmas tree in the living room and board games, what else!
the shower door might have had a loose screw, it was no bother for us but felt a bit sorry for the floor
Close to the city. The kids loved the bunk beds. Very cute little cabin. We stayed the night before going to elftown and it really added to our weekend.
The tv signal was bad.
