- “The owners Sally and Gerry were such a lovely couple. They live next door so met them a couple of times during our stay. Always stopped for a chat and asked how things were going. They have a pony who we got to meet on one of the last days as our son had kept hearing the horse but we never seen it. The house has everything you need and more all supplied by hosts. Lovely little touches like fresh flowers in sitting room and kitchen, freshly home baked scones on arrival, towels, dish towels provided for use. The kitchen was well stocked cutlery, crockery and other utensils. The house had plenty of room for us party 4 adults and 2 kids. You would need a car if staying here as we used ours a lot as found the immediate area did not have much to do so needed to travel further for activities. The weather was nice and dry and imagine it would be a gorgeous area on a lovely hot sunny day.”

- “We stayed in Tigh Darby for a week in July and had a really lovely holiday. The house was much more spacious than shown in the photos. Sally and Gerry were very welcoming and friendly and brought us home made scones on arrival. We much appreciated milk, tea, coffee and butter on arrival. Thank you! All the beds were extremely comfortable and the owners have invested in good quality mattresses. The house is a short walk into Spiddal and the countryside or Galway Bay can be seen out of each window. The house was very clean and very comfortable and the facilities excellent. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it,”

Beds very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Close to other blue flag beaches and the amenities in salthill. Also near Galway city. Kids had a ball!”

A welcome pack of tea sugar and milk was a lovely gesture and she even brought around homemade scones.

- “I don't normally leave comments or recommendations, but I felt I absolutely had to for Tigh Darby.
The hosts were absolutely wonderful througout: for our arrival, they made sure the house was welcoming and took the time to make sure we understood the heating and other facilities; during our stay we never saw them, except for once when they stopped by to drop off some home-made scones; however as they live next door and had been so welcoming we always felt they were there if we needed them.
The house facilities themselves actually are better than described: The internet's great; the tumble drier has been connected properly; the heating comes on immediately and the house warms up very quickly. The house really is a few minutes walk from the sea, and you can see the Atlantic from several of the bedrooms. The kitchen has absolutely everything we wanted: wok, pans, potato peeler, cheese grater, oven gloves, cafeteria x3, several sharp knives, chopping boards, kitchen scissors (sharp!) etc etc etc.
If you want to spend some time in this beautiful part of Ireland, then I can't recommend enough this well-designed property and its wonderful hosts.”
