How to get here

Thanks for your booking - Caroline at the Thatched cottage BnB here to confirm your reservation.

A top tip to locate the BNB is to download the app WAZE and input the Eircode H91DK8W and it will bring you straight to the b n b, otherwise follow the below directions.

If you have not done so pls confirm your check in time, noting check is from 3.30-10pm unless an earlier time as been previously agreed.

Directions:

Travelling from Galway the easiest way and the way that I strongly suggest you follow to the b n b is to travel north on N83 to Claregalway. DO NOT TRAVEL ON THE MOTORWAY M17 as we are off the old road. From Claregalway continue north on to Lydons Knockdoe (do not turn left nor right off this road (GPS will attempt to turn u off) and you will reach Lydons Pub Knockdoe ~ 5km). From Knockdoe continue straight on N83 for 2km further taking the first left by CURRANDRUM national school, the house is just under 2km on the right.

B&B Was welcoming, and friendly. We had a great room and ved was comfortable. Only issue was very minor, we couldn't figure out how to shut the window in the bathroom which made showering a bit chilly in November lol. Breakfast was on point and we were very well treated

Mauvaise organisation pour les pe***** déjeuners qui ne pouvaient être servi qu'à partir de 9h30... Compte tenu de la route que nous avions à effectuer nous ne les avons donc pas eu. Dommage car ils étaient inclus ds le tarif qui lui n'a pas été modifié... Grosse confusion au départ qui a dû nous faire revenir sur place après 20 minutes de voiture.

Delphine Breakfast is NOT badly organised, it is the exact same as any other place, first come first booked in , you didn't arrive until 10pm but expected breakfast at 8 o clock, it does not work like that nor does it work like that in any other bnb house/ hotel/ restaurant either It is not up to me to give you discounts that;s up to bnb Ireland The confusion on departure was because you took another customer belongings Your review is totally unjustified as far as I would be concerned all the best

Chambre et salle de bain froides, petit déjeuner irlandais à prévoir en supplément aussi non continental, ce qui est dommage pour un B&B irlandais. La mère de notre hôte nous a bien accueillie.
