Savour your meals with your loved ones gathered around the dining table, before you head into the living room to kick back and relax as you watch a film on the TV whilst a crackling open fire heats the inviting sitting space. As day rolls into night, be sure to refresh with a long hot bath or a rejuvenating shower on your way to hunker down for a well-needed rest in one of the three plush bedrooms. When you're ready the next day, head out and explore what your gorgeous surroundings have to offer. Pop on foot to the nearby The Cope Foodstore, where you can stock up on all the homely essentials you'll need throughout your stay.

The village of Abbey is situated 7 miles west of Portumna and 11 miles from Loughrea, south east of Galway city on the northern shore of Lough Rea. County Galway’s winner, for three years running, of Ireland’s Tidy Towns competition, the village of Abbey offers two pubs and a supermarket, and a monastery dating back to the 11th Century, from which the village takes its name. Portumna is nearby, offering good fishing and watersports, while the medieval town of Loughrea is host to several shops and pubs, two 4 star hotels, an 18 hole golf course and a lake, renowned for its fishing. Gort, is a medium sized market town on the Galway-to-Ennis Road, situated in a gap between the Slieve Aughty Mountains and the Burren to the south. There is a strong tradition of Irish music in the locality and many pubs stage sessions at night. With the cosmopolitan delights of Galway city and the popular beach at Salthill also within driving distance, this is an ideal touring base.

Convenient location and nice views. The kids enjoyed popping over to the local shop. Large dvd collection, but shame the dvd player didn't have a lead to match the telly

Needs a bit of basic care, upstairs toilet doesn't flush, rear doors very difficult, no outside chairs and no instructions provided therefore not clear on rubbish, recycling and operating the heating and water

However we think that it would be lovely if there was an information pack provided in regards to what to do with waste and if recycling is in place also information on how heating and water heating are switched on as it took us a while to figure out and also wi fi password but apart from that everything was wonderful we would definitely stay again
