Mountain View Guesthouse is a very comfortable bed and breakfast located near the village of Oughterard, an easy drive (17 miles) outside of Galway on your way toward Connemara. We used it as a base for exploring Co. Galway. Our family room was very comfortable and clean with excellent beds and linens. The bathroom was large, clean, and had abundant... More

I stayed in this B&B in 2008 and the excellent service has only gotten better since then. From the moment i arrived to the moment i left owners Patricia and Dickie made me feel right at home. The rooms are quite and cosy with plenty of storage, tv, en suite, and complimentary tea and coffee. The B&B about 500m off... More

We found this b&b by chance. The welcome was great, rooms very clean and well furnished, the breakfast plentiful and very good; you can choose between the English and continental breakfast. Patricia is also very kind and helped us on our journey. Good location for visiting Galway, located twenty minutes by car. Recommended More

I would highly recommend a stay here. In addition to the warm and friendly atmosphere they are a font of knowledge on local history and sights to visit. More

The Mountain View Guesthouse is perfect for exploring the Connemara and is... More
