Family Reunion near Spiddal
Pooreen House was the perfect place to stay for our family to join in a long postponed family reunion. The house was beautiful and comfortable. John was very helpful and responded immediately to any questions. We sat in the sitting room every evening overlooking a spectacular view of Galway Bay and Clare every evening. We would love to return someday!!

Beautiful House
We spent a very pleasant and restful week at Pooreen House. It was a perfect location for a family holiday. The house was warm, welcoming, spacious and immaculate, an ideal home from home.
John the host was friendly, warm and informative about the local area. There are plenty of local well stocked shops within a 3 mile radius and Galway City is only a 35 minute drive away. The sun room to the front of the property was everyone's favourite with beautiful views of Galway bay. We really enjoyed our stay at Pooreen House and I whole heartedly recommend it.

Sehr großzügiges Haus mit toller Aussicht auf die Bucht von Galway und den Burron
We had a wonderful time here and were particularly impressed by the beautiful view and the front conservatory. John is always there if there are any questions and the tours to the west were breathtaking.

Pleasant Stay
Das Haus ist für Ausflüge nach Connemara und Galway günstig gelegen. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter war sehr nett, er ist sehr hilfsbereit. Die Räumlichkeiten waren sauber und wir haben den Wintergarten sehr genossen. Die Lage ist ruhig, aber nicht direkt am Meer. Dorthin sind es ca. 500 m. Einziger Wermutstropfen: Die Küchenausstattung war für 7 Personen etwas dürftig. Aber insgesamt war es ein schöner Aufenthalt.
