Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
The apartment is ideally placed, around 5 minutes walk to Galway city centre. This means that all the amenities of the centre (cafes, shops, theatres, restaurants) are easily accessible, but the apartment itself if quiet. The apartment is on the first floor of the apartment complex, above a small supermarket and post office.
Galway is a vibrant, university town, on the sea - with gorgeous city beaches and a bustling city centre with lots of arts & cultural activities, music, street busking and fine dining. Also, Galway is ideally placed as a base to explore some of the most beautiful parts of Ireland, such as the Burren (45 mins away) and Connemara (45 mins the other direction).
There are a number of good golf links or courses close to the apartment.
Can offer car for your use.
