My family and I spent a beautiful week at the Spiddal Villa, 6 adults and 8 children. The home was perfect for us and the property was great for relaxing and watching the children play. I highly recommend this home. We all hope to return one day
This was the perfect place for our group of 14, ages 3.5 to 70. We were provided with everything we needed to cook, play games, celebrate and sleep well. There was plenty of space indoor and outdoor. Just the loveliest stay! Our host Deirdre was absolutely delightful, welcoming and thoughtful. She responded quickly to questions before and during our stay. We would definitely choose to stay here again if we are in the area.
The outside photos do not let on to the beautiful and spacious interior. The property is well maintained and served all our needs. We had a family of 11 age 1 to 63 and there was ample space for sleeping, reading, eating, laundry, cooking and family fun. A perfect location for us to gather away from home and visit a lovely island.The outside space provided beauty, calm, and relaxation. Plenty of space for parking.Great location for visiting the West Coast of Ireland.
Spacious, clean family home was a wonderful stay for our large family. Fully stocked kitchen made for easy cooking at the house. Plenty of good pubs within 30 minute drive. 30 minutes and an easy drive to downtown Galway. 30 minutes access to the Rossaveel ferry for the Aran Islands. Deirdre was a great host and communicative! Thanks for a great stay.
Thank you so much for your gracious hospitality. Our family enjoyed every moment in your home. Very well stocked kitchen and home. Tidy, modern amenities and a great place for family gatherings. We visited both the Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher from this location while continently located 30 minutes from downtown Galway.
We had a lovely stay at Teach Na Mara! The house is in a great location to see so many of the west coast’s natural beauty. Check in and out was seamless, and Deidre was excellent about communicating with us. Thank you!
The place was beautiful! Wonderful setting, very tastefully, decorated and a ton of space to spread out. Everything worked well and the host was friendly and available. Thank you so much for a great experience!
Excellent house to stay in. Clean, homey, comfortable. Great for large groups! Dierdre is a wonderful host, very accommodating and lives next door. And I can’t forget the fresh flowers!
This is a lovely house in the Irish countryside. It has lovely decorations, was well furnished, and very comfortable. Dièdre was very responsive and helpful. Getting to the house takes a bit of doing, but the location is quiet and is great for taking walks.
Our stay at Deirdre’s home was a joy and she is an outstanding host! A great location—off the beaten path, but close to many activities. A beautiful, spotless, and well laid out house. And, she was as welcoming and thoughtful as one could ask for in a host. Everything was perfect.
Wow, what a house ! Spotless, seemed brand new - modern and spacious for 8 plus.
Host was so welcoming and helpful! Check in and out was simple. Outdoor space of this property was amazing.
Deidra was so friendly and fun, we wanted to have her join our group - great recommendations for things to do, places to go and restaurants, pubs etc.
Thank you again !
We stayed for a week over the Christmas and the house was very comfortable. Deirdre had the house beautifully decorated which meant it felt like a home away from home. It is a great size house with 6 very spacious bedrooms. The kitchen and living area worked very well particularly for children playing around. We would highly recommend a stay at Deirdre’s house. It will not disappoint.
Stayed with friends while visiting a resident of Ireland. It was a vacation for everyone. The house was lovely, well decorated and comfortable. We also appreciated the nice touches like our welcoming cake, etc. The house was also well-stocked. The only comment I would make is that the house is a bit remote.
The house is absolutely fabulous. It’s spotless and the facilities are incredibly well thought out. Anything we needed was provided including baby monitors, cots, bouncer etc. The house was beautifully decorated with Christmas decorations. It’s easy to tell that it is a much loved home of the owner as they take such good care of it. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking soon.
We loved our stay in Spiddal with Deirdre, and could not fault any of our stay - from the time we initially booked right through to checking out!The house itself exceeded our expectations and was spotlessly clean, with plenty of space for our group of 14, as well as all the bits and bobs we might need during our stay. Outside of Spiddal itself, a car is definitely needed but there was lots of room to park, and the drive up to the house is very straightforward.Deirdre was great in the run up to our trip, answering all of our questions about coffee machines and chairs, and even popped by on our first evening to make sure that we had all that we needed.None of our group would hesitate to stay again were we looking for somewhere to stay for a group in Connemara!Go raibh maith agat
If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! This house was just perfect for our stay in Galway. It was immaculate, comfortable and very spacious for our large family.
Deirdre was an amazing host and not only gave us some fantastic suggestions and advice of things to do in the area, her hospitality, friendliness and welcome basket was an unexpected bonus to our stay as well. We had everything we could possibly need to make our stay comfortable including a well stocked kitchen so we could stay and eat in when we wanted. There were also several outdoor seating areas that were very comfortable and inviting. After visiting the hustle and bustle of Dublin and Killarney it was nice being a little outside of Galway in the quiet countryside, yet close enough to enjoy both Galway and the Aran Islands. I highly recommend Deirdre's home!
Beautiful house, great location, and a tremendously helpful and caring host.
From the very start we were welcomed with good information and flexible check in arrangements. Also some welcome supplies to start our stay off.
Throughout our stay our friendly and helpful host was on hand but not intrusive.
On leaving again the process was a simple as arriving the same helpful requirements that placed no extra burdens on busy preparations for the trip home after a great time together in a
Lovely place that provided for all our needs.
Our whole Family wish to thank Deirdre
For making us welcome with her friendly and helpful manner
Would definitely recommend any group like ours staying here and would not hesitate to book again if we wish to visit the West coast again

We had an absolutely wonderful time in host Deidre's beautiful home up the hill from Spiddal. The home is huge and incredibly well appointed, you won't feel like you are at a generic grey VRBO. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need and the bedrooms, laundry and bathrooms go above and beyond to provide a comfortable space. There are several adorable outside sitting spaces that the pictures don't do justice, you really are in an incredibly beautiful, quiet and private part of the country. Deidre answers questions super quickly, and if you're visiting from the US you might have a few about how and when to use various appliances/systems. There is a great instruction binder there too. You have to drive, but are central to be able to easily visit Galway, Kylemore Abbey, and other places on the West Coast. Highly recommend!
We had an amazing time staying at Deirdre’s home. The house and location were beautiful and the nearby town was lovely. It was perfect for our large family group.
Deirdre was able to accommodate an early check-in which was greatly appreciated by our group after a long and stressful travel day the day before. It was especially appreciated by our tiny ones who were exhausted. She also had so many things available that helped us feel at home…cots, a high chair, and toys for the little ones (4 mo, 2, and 3). The older kids loved (9 and 14) loved the outdoor space and the games that were there.
We loved visiting the town of Spiddal, the craft village, and the local pubs/restaurants. We took several day trips to nearby places including Galway and Kylemore Abbey. It was nice to have a quiet spot to return too.
Overall we had a lovely visit and Deirdre’s hospitality was a huge part of that.
I hope to be able to come back some day and visit again.
At first I was hesitant from being so far from Galway City center. I was completely wrong. Spiddel is a scenic town with activities for all: traditional music, shopping, great coffee, and perfect streets for long walks. The house itself, Teach Na Mara, seems to be brand new with every little detail you could possibly need: two kinds of coffee makers, brand new kitchen appliances, turf ready outside, a beautiful bbq area, and loads of space and charm. The owner is the kindest host I have ever encountered. She is creative and empathetic and readily available should you need her. We were here with four children under the age of ten and didn't hear them: this house is so well designed for peace. This house should be at the top of every person's wishlist to enjoy at least once.
