Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The room itself was well-done, with a beautiful view. There was a couch and an armchair with blankets, which we appreciated in the cool, windy night. The hosts were available and happy to help in any way.
When we first entered, there was a 'fragrance' that permeated the room, which my companion didn't like.
Praktisk, stille og rolig
La vue
L'odeur dans le studio et le fait qu'il n'y avait pas de Télé
A hob to make a bit of food would have been amazing but we didn't mind for the short stay
The bucolic location
The style is unique, like a tiny house. The view is exceptional.
There is no stove to cook. Also it’s located far from the city with no public transportation.
Ideal para desconectar, muy cálido, con todo lo necesario.

Tom and his wife live on the property and were so very kind and helpful. The studio was incredible. My wife and I loved it. Close enough to Galway for a tour, but the best find was the town Oranmore. Great pubs and food. But not as Crazy busy as the city. Views were stunning you could eat out or go to the local supermarket an pick out a meal and a bottle of wine.

Loved watching the tide come and go! The apartment was basic, but had everything we needed.
Would have loved a bit more in the way of cooking facilities and kitchen equipment, but we knew it was a basic kitchenette, so it was as expected.
Peaceful with a lovely view of the estuary and so easy to get to some amazing things to explore including the Cliffs of Moher. Tommy was welcoming and his knowledge of where to eat and how to navigate the roads was very much appreciated.

Tommy and his wife are lovely, they put the heating on for us coming and gave us great tips for the local area. The view out the window is great. Shower is good, bed is comfortable. Very happy with our stay and would definitely return.
The radiators are thermostat controlled. They creak as they heat up and cool down. Didn't bother my partner, but I put in ear plugs for sleeping one night, and turned the radiators off the following night. Both were effective, and was warm enough without radiators.
Perfect little cabin for a great getaway in Galway, A car is needed to make the most of it but it’s beautiful spot

Excellent location, well priced and exactly what we were looking for for our visit to Galway! Gorgeous all round.
Nothing! Although one does need a car although if you are willing there are taxis too!
Fantastic view Easy check-in / check-out Good pre communication and detailed information how to get there
In general a very nice place and a nice host
As all bed in Ireland - to small for Scandinavians as The king size bed is only 150 cm wide. Bu you manage. Eberything else top standard.
Studio was gorgeous. Lovely location.
No t.v.
We loved our stay in the Cosy studio by the shore. Our hosts were fantastic and provided many suggestions where to eat and adventures to take. Thank you.
Can't think of a thing.
Tommy was very accommodating and helped with each of our requests. The room was spacious and clean and had everything we needed.
The road to get to the parking spot is quite narrow, and we expected more “sea” with a name like “by the shore”, but it was more like a dry-ish seabed.
More than anything, the view from the window
No TV
This is a lovely little studio in its own separate building, out in the front yard of a thatched cottage. There is a sitting area, kitchen with table, comfortable bed and good bathroom facilities. It is very quiet there, with a lovely view of the bay. No breakfast was offered (or expected), but tea, coffee and milk were there; we picked up a few things and enjoyed breakfast in the studio. We enjoyed our stay very much.
It is worth noting that the studio is several kilometres from Oranmore, which itself is a fair distance from Galway. The drive there is, at the studio's end, fairly narrow and winding, and the street lighting is not great. A car is a must, and the smaller the car the better: the entrance to the parking area is up a small narrow driveway and through a small narrow gate.
The Cosy Studio was very comfortable and it was a beautiful location. I wish I had more time to explore the area.

Everything, beautiful clean cosy studio with amazing views in a lovely location.

Very clean and comfortable with front of sea views. The location was amazing, right across the road from the beach. Very peaceful and relaxing. Easy check in. Great communication with the owner.
Very nice studio with a beautiful view. Tommy is such a lovely host and very friendly. Included parking and was clean.
Nothing 😊
The generous size of the studio, well equipped kitchenette and view from the window.
Door locks were tricky to use.
Loved the location! Loved the space and that the entire window wall of the studio faced the water! I could have stayed a month! It would be a perfect place to work remotely! I loved that you could walk down the road to a castle in ruins and the entire road was quiet and peaceful! The owner's thatched roof house added a lovely touch to the setting.
Even though I knew it did not include breakfast and had a kitchen, I missed the interaction with the host as we traveled around the country.
Big comfortable room with good facilities. Nice to have a couch to sit on and a fridge. Nice quiet location, sat with the door open and listened to the birds in the evening.
Bed was a bit soft for us.
The location, host and quite spacious. Setting delightful
No windows that could open is the only issue with The Cosy Studio
beautiful studio by the sea , clean and well equipped , fantastic views and friendly hosts

The view across the lawn and down to the inlet of the bay makes you forget all your cares the moment you arrive.
I could have done with a hob but there is a micro wave.
