  CHRISTMAS IN BARNA

  We had a fabulous family Christmas in the beautiful "Aigean cottage". A 5 star experience. The attention to detail is superb, spotlessly clean, warm and cosy. It is fully equipped as a family home e.g. range-style cooker, fridge/freezer, washing machine & dryer, Smart TV, wifi, 4 bedrooms (3 en-suite bathrooms). The cottage is modern, spacious and warm - it has underfloor heating & radiators. There was a Christmas tree and decorations and when we lit the log fire it created a lovely festive atmosphere. The beds are very comfortable with quality bed linen and towels. The main bedroom has a super king size bed with a free standing bath and a walk in rain fall shower. The location is perfect too. A stroll to Barna village, a short drive to the beach at Silver Strand. Dan is a super host who made sure we had a special family Christmas.

  Great staycation

  Just spent a week in these lovely cottages. The house was spotless and very comfortable and little touches like loccitane toiletries give it a little bit of Luxury. The site is safe for children and the playground is an added bonus. The location is great.quick drive to Salthill,Galway town or many beaches and a great SuperValu and pub/ restaurant are within easy walking distance. Dan and Sarah are lovely hosts, friendly and full of local knowledge and suggestions. This was a fantastic location for a staycation.

  Perfect spot for Family & Friends Aug 2020

  Our family of 4 including two young kids had a wonderful Midweek break at the Galway Coast Cottages in Barna in August 2020. We are from Dublin and booked in May when it was clear there would be no overseas sun holiday this year. We were delighted with how it turned out. Three other families of our friends joined in and owner/host Dan was equally helpful and welcoming to us all. We stayed in no.s 6,8,9 and 10, all 3 bed cottages. Ours had a sea view from the upstairs living room and we were impressed by the comfort and standard of bedding, toiletries, kitchen equipment. Lovey shower in the en-suite as well as an electric shower and separate bath in the other bathroom, perfect for post-beach kids. We fit in a trip to a small local cove, about three turns past Tra Mór, as well as a longer drive up to Dogs bay beside Roundstone. That beach is spectacular and the sheltered water is very smooth and safe as well as that bit warmer, I loved it. The drive was about 90 mins but full on gorgeous Connemara and wild Atlantic way views, so for us it was worth it. We also did a morning walk in Barna woods and had a lovely dinner in The Pins in The Twelve in Barna, which is a short walk away. Barna village is easy to access and has a great small supermarket as well as cafes restaurants and takeaways. We were very lucky with sunny warm weather so our kids got great use out of the central playground and paved area around it (scooter races). There are several outdoor picnic tables so we had a lunch and several dinners outside. During one I had to pop back inside and deal with work emails (than you, 2020) and I noticed how I couldnt hear the chatter outside, so if other cottages are eating out its not a noise issue for those in others. Bring insect repellant for the evening, we had a couple of ankle nips. On one evening two of my friends were sitting having a post dinner drink on one of the benches on the front lawn after the sun had dipped and Dan appeared with a blanket and two cushions to make them more comfortable. This instinct to enhance a little holiday moment was so lovely and it really struck us. Overall this is a beautifully situated spot from which to explore a magical part of Ireland; owned and managed by a very dedicated couple. I wish them all the success they deserve and I hope to be back.

  Family celebration

  We spent a wonderful four days in barna staying in "the gathering" cottages. Perfect for a large family group. We were able to hold a lovely celebratory dinner in the large open plan kitchen area. Plenty of room to seat everyone,the high ceilings give a lovely feeling of space and light, a perfect party room. These cottages are finished to a high standard, really comfortable and well maintained. A big thank you to Dan and his team we left Barna with precious memories of a wonderful family holiday
