Featuring a garden and views of garden, Cregg Castle is a country house set in a historic building in Galway, 16 km from Galway Greyhound Stadium. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace.

We really loved our stay at Cregg Castle ,, So relaxed and kids had a blast playing hide and seek and exploring the castle . The shared Kitchen was spotless and had everything we needed to cook, Alan was great host and very accommodating . Just a really cool chilled place to go , leave the kids run wild and explore , we had a lovely walk up to the graveyard mighty excitement as there was cows in the field . We will be going back !!

    Fabulous location, so quiet and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can recommend Waterside Cottage to anyone wanting to get away from the hub bub of modern day life! The greenway walk at Ballinahinch is worth a look and views of the mountains in the area are amazing. Beautiful Gurteen and Dogs Bay for paddling/swimming are close by and Roundstone is a friendly village with shops and restaurants 15 minutes drive away.

    Location was very convenient to local Shops and bakeries. The views were so pretty, regardless of the weather. Even though the traffic noise affected the front bedroom - the back bedroom was so peaceful and quiet.

    The owner Paula is lovely and very accommodating. I ordered a vegan breakfast, but due to loads of messages and other issues this one got missed and Paula was not prepared for it (through no fault of her own), Paula came up with several ideas what she could make for breakfast on the spot and made sure I was fed, which I appreciated very much. The room was clean and comfortable, it's on a quiet street so it was very peaceful at night. Paula was very happy to help us and answer any queries we had, we would happily stay here again.

    Everything about this property was amazing. From the location to the beautiful surrounding and setting in general. 5 minute spin into Gort. A busy town with everything you could possible need but far away that you are completely in the countryside. So peaceful and quiet. The house itself is so comfortable and homely. Beautifully decorated and clean rooms. I just knew the host put so much love into the house. Plan on staying here again with a group of friends soon. Highly recommend! 😊
