Maldon House

We stayed 2 nights at the Maldon house. We found Teresa to be a wonderful host. She was very helpful with ideas on getting around Galway, taking the Ferry to Kerry, and even made dinner reservations for us in town. And the breakfast was delicious. Teresa also volunteered to drive us into town to enjoy the live music. We had a great stay!

Feedback should be as objective and honest as possible – and that's how I intend to write the following lines: In our ranking of the 7 accommodations we stayed at on our Ireland trip, Maldon House, with its 3 nights, unfortunately came in last place. The reasons: ~ Cleanliness: There were clumps of dog hair all over the house – and we even found hair from the previous guests in the bathroom; the carpet in the room wasn't clean either. ~ The room and bathroom looked quite worn; unfortunately, the front door couldn't be locked. ~ While the breakfast was more than adequate in terms of quantity, the quality didn't match that of the other accommodations. ~ Teresa is a very friendly and helpful person, but unfortunately, she seemed overwhelmed. In summary: With some leniency, you can certainly book Maldon House for a 1-night stay – ironically, however, we paid the highest price of all 7 accommodations here.

Terrsa was so helpful and organized. She recommended great places near to visit and eat. She introduced us to black pudding -which we all loved! Amazing experience!

As we did not have phone service, we were not able to phone as the post on the door required. So we were not able to stay!

Our stay at The Maldon House exceeded all expectations. The home itself is warm, comfortable, and wonderfully inviting. Our hostess, Teresa Keowan, was both professional and genuinely welcoming—like being greeted by a favorite aunt. Her Irish breakfasts were absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Teresa even went the extra mile by arranging dinner reservations for us at local restaurants, which was such a thoughtful touch. The location is ideal—set in the peaceful countryside just a few miles from Oranmore’s town center, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. Galway is only about a 30-minute drive away, making it easy to spend the day exploring its many historic sites and hidden treasures. We especially loved visiting the nearby Ross Errilly Friary, a truly memorable experience. We highly recommend The Maldon House to anyone visiting the area—you won’t be disappointed!
