The cottage is in the most beautiful and convenient location. Very private, yet not completely isolated. It has been lovingly restored and contains absolutely everything you could need for a relaxing stay. The cottage was spotlessly clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and dressed with quality bed linen. The host kindly left us locally sourced baked goods, fresh milk and water for our arrival. Bill the property manager called in to make sure everything was to our liking. It was a pleasure to meet him and he displayed genuine interest in the reason for our trip, an absolute gentleman . Teresa's Cottage is a gem of a property and we look forward to visiting again.

Nomes obrir la porta et trasllades a un espai ple de detalls, la musica relaxant posada, la foc de la ximenera ences, la taula posada, una llum tènue ……que fa que se t’enborrone la pell. Alli t’oblides del mon i del temps, en plena natura. No li falta detall, es ideal la decoració i l’atencio de Bill, que esta pendent abans d’arribar, quan arribes i quan marxes. Es un encant tot. Una llastima no haver pogut estar mes dies. Sense dubte tormarem.
Charmant, très bien équipé, confortable, on s’y sent comme chez soi.
Un peu loin des lieux à visiter.
Era exactamente lo que buscábamos Una hermosa casa en la campiña . Nos esperaron con la mesa del té servida , scons etc Nos sentimos muy bien recibidos . La casa tenía todo lo necesario como para sentirnos “ en casa” Bill muy generoso con su ayuda y su disponibilidad !!! Gracias
Todo estuvo muy bien !!!!
The cottage was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed for a family of 4

Fabulous, everything was perfect!
We loved our stay soo much! There were four of us, and although the cottage is compact, it is nice designed and felt very comfortable. You can really tell that every little detail has been considered. Kitchen was well equipped - everything needed for cooking was there, including oil, spices, and all the necessary dishes and utensils. The hosts had even left a carafe of milk for coffee, and the table was beautifully set when we arrived. The property is not in the city center but more in a peaceful and nice residential area, which was not an issue for us since we had a car. Location was quiet, beautiful, surrounded by lovely homes, and perfect for a relaxing walk including saying hello to the cute donkeys nearby! Communication with the hosts was also excellent - quick, friendly, and very easy throughout. I’ve traveled around the world, and this honestly felt like one of those rare stays where you can feel how much care has gone into creating a great guest experience. We truly enjoyed it and would happily stay again.
Nothing bad to say
Nos gustó todo !! Lo lindo del lugar, muy confortable y muy bien equipada. Y la atención excelente de Bill.
No podemos decir nada.
We loved our stay at Teresa’s cottage, it was in the perfect location just outside of Galway but close enough to other towns. Bill was an amazing host and incredibly thoughtful with everything you could need at the lovely cottage. Wish we could have stayed longer! Would highly recommend!
We had an absolutely wonderful time here. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, very well equipped and comfortable in every detail. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful – exactly what we were looking for. Host Bill was extremely friendly and helpful from the very beginning. The little welcome with butter and marmalade was such a nice personal touch that made us feel truly welcome. We would book again in a heartbeat and highly recommend this place to anyone! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had a fantastic stay at Teresa’s Cottage! The cottage is beautiful, very clean, and perfectly equipped. It’s cozy, peaceful, and ideal for relaxing. The hosts were friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
Everything was fine.
A beautiful find in the heart of the countryside. Attention to detail was excellent. Really cosy, comfortable and stylish. Thank you for the incredible hospitality.
AMAZINGLY renovated and fitted out cottage. Stunning interior decoration. SO cosy. You would be happy to be inside for the whole stay. It was just gorgeous. and beautiful vibe.
everything was 100%
Property had everything we wanted / needed for our stay. Bill was fantastic and always available to offer advice on where to go for food etc
Very modern, clean and comfy. Great quiet location, just a stone throw from kilcolgan. Bill, the property manager was very very kind, respectful of our privacy and extremely helpful and informative. Plenty of cooking appliances and amenities, even got fresh milk and scones on arrival. Hot water bottles on our beds too was very thoughtful for this time of year although the cottage itself has great heating. Excellent value for money
Absolutely everything, Teresa’s Cottage is stunning, every detail thought of by host Bill. The setting is amazing in a beautiful countryside. Peaceful, relaxing Christmas break. Highly recommend a stay you most definitely will enjoy this cottage .
Everything was excellent, nothing not to like.
Wish we could have met Bill in person as very responsive and friendly on the phone. We were sorry we missed his visit and appreciated his nice note. The cottage was fully equipped and it was great to find scones awaiting us and some other sundries on a prettily laid table for breakfast the next day. Nice layout for two couples traveling together, even with a single bathroom. We enjoyed the fire and comfortable living area and well equipped kitchen. Had a fabulous dinner at the recommended Moran's. The country setting (including nearby donkeys!), with walks out the door, suited us and was centrally located to all we came for (such as the Cliffs of Moher by sea, the Burrens, St. Kilmacduagh, Leamaneh Castle, Ballyvaughan, Maumturk Mtns, the 12 Bens, Galway, Kylemore Abbey, Roundstone, Clifden). In wild and wooly weather, it was very good to head "home" to cozy lodgings.
All was great!
Wow it was so well presented and comfortable,a great base for exploring
Could not fault anything
Ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt ! Das Cottage ist traumhaft und Bill ein grossartiger Gastgeber ( Frühstück) - herzlich, hilfsbereit und aufmerksam. Vielen Dank !
The location was beautifully set in the countryside. The cottage has a great amount of space and a great base to travel around Galway. The place had so many utilities, we had everything we needed for the trip. The host, Bill, sent us so many great recommendations, which were so helpful! He also dropped in to check in, which was great! We arrived with a table set up with baked goods, butter and the core amenities - great Irish hospitality. The beds were comfortable, and it is a quiet location, making it easy to sleep in. It was a lovely place to rest from Storm Amy, with beautiful places a short drive away. We went to Kinvarra for coffee in the morning, and the famous Moran's restaurant is a short drive away. The pictures are accurate; it actually felt a lot bigger on the inside. All in all, a great place to stay, and we highly recommend it and would return.
The temperature did drop a bit during our stay, and the heating control was a tad temperamental. But we managed to get by in the end. The instructions were there for everything, so perhaps it was us not reading them very well!
Lovely tiny cottage in a quiet surrounding. Very lovely details in style and well equipped. The host Bill was very nice and came over to say hello. What was absolutely stunning: a set table with scones at arrival day. Also the lights were switched on and the music box played - that feels like a very warm welcome to us. Never had that before and really appreciated it.
Beds a bit to small for 4 adults. But absolutely manageable for a short stay.
The house is an oasis of peace. Everything is perfect, clean, cosy and beautifully designed. We found everything we needed and more and all amenities were in excellent condition. It is the kind of place where you instantly feel good. Our teenage daughter thinks it sends out Christmasy vibes:). It definitely is a place with a soul, filled with happy energy. We loved the fact that Teresa's photo was there too! It's impossible not to feel connected to the beautiful girl in the picture and her gentle smile! Above all, we have appreciated the personal touch. Bill, the property manager, made us feel truly welcome. Tourism today has become very impersonal, but the experience at Teresa's Cottage was anything but. We felt as if we were visiting family or dear friends. Every detail was carefully prepared to make us feel good. Bill even took the trouble to personally come to greet us. Thank you, dear Bill, for all your efforts, for the great recommendations and for making our stay unforgettable!
Excellent property, modern, new, furnished with great taste. We got surprised on arrival with tasty refreshments. Excellent communication from the owner/manager. Simply excellent... 10/10.
Such a warm welcome. Bill was the greatest help possible. Our car tyre ruptured on the way to the cottage saturday afternoon and he came to pick us up ànd arranged a replacement service who came saturday night! Holiday saved. The cottage is great, everything you need and more is in there. Modern and clean and near nice villages and the sea. Bill gave excellent tips where to eat and what to see. Super!!!!
The bed was a bit small.
So well appointed and comfortable. Great welcoming setup. Lovely rural environment so close to lots of interesting places. The manager went above and beyond to make contact and give us advice on local places to visit. All in all a lovely visit.
Beautiful place, very cosy and well furnished. Perfect location to relax. We wish we could have extended our stay.
Nothing
Liked the little extras such as scones on arrival.
That was amazing time !!! For sure we will be back there !!! Owner is very helpful! Guys really don’t even hesitate to choose this house !!!!
Location was perfect to visit the Burren and the Wild Atlantic Way. Modern cottage with several appliances. Kitchen with all you need to cook your Christmas Eve dinner. Communication with owner was good, we got several information about what to visit and where to go. Thoughtful welcome with cakes and Christmas decorations. Thank you. Grazie
Teresa’s Cottage was in a lovely location, when you step inside straight away we got a lovely warm homely feeling. It was so well stocked with essentials! We loved this cottage and really enjoyed the comfort and style.
There was nothing to dislike about the property.
We found a lovely, new, fully equipped and very clean cottage in the middle of the countryside, peaceful, quiet, perfect. Bill, the host, was really kind and made us feel at home.
It's the first time in years I want to give a rating of 12 out of 10! A wonderful place, perfect location, great hosts, clean as can be with everything you could need and although it feels like it's far from all form of agitation, it is 5 minutes drive to shops and restaurants! We will definitely come back for a longer stay!
Nothing to dislike, unless you want to walk to bars, shops and tourist attractions.
The cottage was very clean, comfortable and tastefully furnished and decorated. It is located on a quiet, bucolic Irish country road. A car is a must. A special shout out to Bill, who gave us a warm and cheerful greeting (even though we were hours early) and was extremely helpful and solicitous thereafter.
The only thing we did not like was that our stay was too short. There is so much to see and do in the area and the cottage is so relaxing that we wish we had given ourselves more time.
Teresa's Cottage was a perfect base for us to explore Galway. It was a cosy and warm home-away-from-home and we were so impressed at the attention to detail and little touches that made it such a comfortable place to stay!
The cottage is as presented. Actually, it's even better. The immediate area and beyond is peaceful and pretty. It's well stocked, and every detail has been attended to by the property manager.
Perfect, not a thing. Great spot.
It had a beautiful country feel about it !
The shower wet the whole bathroom floor. The shower stall could be better designed .
Such a clean, comfortable and stylish holiday cottage for our little family of 3. We only stayed for 2 nights but wish we'd have booked for longer. The cottage is well stocked with basics, milk, tea, coffee etc and the freshly baked scones went down a treat after a long day travelling. The cottage was beautifully decorated inside and out and had a large private garden to boot. Our little boy loved running around with a football. Bill was an excellent host. He made many great recommendations for things to do and places to eat and even called by to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We couldn't have asked for more. Our holiday was a tour of Ireland (7 different holiday accommodations over 2 weeks) and Teresa's cottage was our favourite accommodation by a country mile. We'd love to come back. Thank you for such an enjoyable stay.
Nothing, it really is exceptional.
Beautiful, clean, warm, inviting property. Bill was fantastic- great communication. Full kitchen. Washer and dryer. Bedrooms are quiet and warm. Would recommend.
Very warm welcome, well equipped kitchen, washing machine and dryer available
The host left us some pastries, butter, and jam on the nicely decorated table. It felt like home.
Every detail was attentionated, Bill prepared for us all the necessary things for our little one and the breakfast with homemade baked scones, coffee. The house is fully furnished with washer, dryer and fully equipped kitchen.
Nothing. Everything was perfect.
Cute, comfortable, and perfectly located to enjoy the peaceful countryside - whilst still in reach of Galway & the Cliffs of Moher. Very well looked after cottage, full of thoughtful touches for an amazing stay.
It was just an incredible nice stay, very remote and with a lot of attractions nearby e.g. Connemara, Lough Corrib, Galway, The Burren, Cliffs of Moher. It was a really home for one week to us. Shopping opportunities in Kilcolgan or Oranmore for having breakfast and meals at home. We arrived and were very positively surprised by finding scones and jam on the table as a welcome present. Thanks again to the very nice housekeeper especially for sending us the left behind cables to our next stay, what a service, just great.
Luxurious, cosy and beautiful cottage, with comforting features, like perfect beds with delightful mattresses, plush pillows and duvet, as well as the gorgeous fireplace and sofa. The kitchen is well equipped and the host, Bill, was exceptional; he made considerate effort to offer local knowledge and advice, also on arrival provided coffee pods, fresh milk, scones and wine!
Nothing. Everything was thoughtfully and considerably put together.
We enjoyed a lot, we loved the scones in the a very fine setting table when we arrived late at night. The host helped us with good recomendation of the areas to visit.
Wonderful cottage with great hospitality.
Couldn’t think of anything
The cottage was really well laid out and had absolutely everything that we needed during our stay. The location was ideal- close enough to the major sites in the area but still very quiet.
Nothing, it was great.
Fantastic location for exploring the region. It was very quiet and the property was clean and of a very high standard. Also, Bill was awesome - some great recommendations of places to visit/eat, and the scones, milk and Easter egg were a lovely treat!
Nothing springs to mind - It was all great!
Well equipped, comfortable, cosy and clean.
All good
An amazing cottage filled with character and charm. Everything you needed was at hand from kitchen to laundry to bathroom. With cosy dining /sitting room and two lovely bedrooms. And all recently refurbished to a very high standard. It had the perfect peaceful setting in the country (daffodils in full bloom outside the windows) but is very conveniently located a short drive from Galway City, so we had the best of both worlds. I have to say it was perfect, topped only by the property manager Bill who was very welcoming and helpful and went out of his way to return an important item we had inadvertently forgotten in the cottage on our departure. I can’t recommend a stay at Teresa’s Cottage enough. And myself and my family will defiantly be making a return visit. Denise Collins Schull Co Cork.
Great location, great cottage/venue and interiors. Great host - very accommodating and helpful.
Shower glass setup a little small for shower head, caused the bathroom to flood
The cottage was very beautiful and comfortable. The host was very attentive and kind.
La decoración, las comodidades, todo hermoso

Bill was great! He prepared everything for us. We have a baby girl, so he got a cot and high chair for her. We arrived late on a winter time and he left the house warm and cosy waiting for us. Amazing stay!
A great cosy property, in a lovely quite and remote location.
Can't think of anything.
We arrived to a warm house and kettle! The electric fire was glowing, along with ambient music with scones ready on the laid table. I was honestly in awe at the carefully curated space. From an iorn to a coffee maker to milk, butter, jam, eggs in the fridge there were so many thoughtful touches. I have recommended Teresa’s cottage to family and friends because it is such a comfortable get away in a quite area yet close to the nearest town. Beds provide a restful and dreamy sleep. It’s very special. I’m an Airbnb host in LA and this was the best stay I’ve had on Airbnb.
Nothing.
Everything was perfect. Bill, the host, was incredibly welcoming. The cottage was cozy and well-equipped, making us feel right at home. I can't recommend this place highly enough – if you're looking for a relaxing getaway, this is the perfect spot. We'll definitely be returning in the future
A beautiful snug & immaculately clean cottage. Peaceful & quiet farming area - loved Teresa’s Cottage & didn’t want to leave.
The cottage is super homely and cosy (the fireplace provides a great atmosphere) and offered everything one needs for a great vacation! Would love to come back anytime and recommending it to everyone travelling to Ireland!
Absolutely everything, the most exquisite cottage, immaculately kept with every single appliance and accessory one might need. The location is perfect in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood situated about half an hour from Galway. The manager Bill was so warm and helpful, on arrival he had left us all sorts of goodies like bread, scones, jam, milk, and gave us lots of tips and info.
I can't think of a single thing.
Lovely Cottage in a beautiful area. If you are looking for some peace that's just the right place to go to. The furnishing was chosen with care and is top of the notch. The cottage is very clean and you can find everything that you could possibly need during your stay - even a washing machine and a dryer, Bill was a real highlight as well ;-) He was always in a good mood and very helpful. We were absolutely delighted to find a ready laid table with scones and a bottle of wine upon our arrival. We were lucky with the weather and had breakfast in the lovely garden every morning. We are looking forward to come back as the cottage is an ideal location for trips within Clare, Galway and Connemara. Be prepared, Bill ;-)
We loved every minute....
Scones,butter and jams were a great touch. Very comfortable and relaxing. well finished cottage with lots of room for a family. great host
cant think of anything
Lovely cottage. Beautiful location and perfect restoration. Really comfortable and great facilities. Set in a lovely location down a really quiet road. Would definitely come back here in the future
I can’t think of anything
We loved how close this charming cottage was to Galway. The cottage was impeccably clean and spacious. Rooms were beautifully decorated and comfortable. There was great attention to detail throughout the home. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!
Every detail of the cottage has been thoughtfully designed and prepared. When we arrived the table was set, freshly baked buns, butter & milk. It is a home away from home with everything you need.
Teresa's Cottage is an absolute gem. Brand new and modern with top notch facilities, and yet it is still so cosy and holds so much character. Bill was so accommodating, making sure the place was all set up for our arrival late on Friday. He had some milk, scones and wine waiting for us which was such a lovely touch. The place was spotless and had all the facilities you would need for a longer stay (washing machine, tumble dryer, iron, oven, hob, etc). Fantastic location also, we were able to visit both the Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Islands as it was quite central between the two. Couldn't recommend this place more - we'll definitely be back.
Absolutely nothing. Teresa's Cottage is a must visit.
Lovely house with everything what you need 10/10
Everything perfect👍
When we first seen this cottage in person we thought it was beautiful, in a lovely quiet location in Galway. The facilities were amazing! Washing/dryer were fab and the filtered tap water was to die for! Fluffy and lovely towels waiting for us upon arrival and fresh scones with irish butter! All the rooms were to a high standard and very clean! The toilet and shower facilities were also very good! We all enjoyed our stay there very much and would return again, the host in particular (Bill) went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable! Would highly recommend staying here, you won’t be disappointed!
Nothing, everything was to a high standard
