La casa era fantastica , realmente en las fotos parecía más pequeña . Todo funcionaba pefectamente , absolutamente super limpio , en un barrio tranquilo con unos vecinos encantadores. Los antitriones nos dejaron información y algunas cosas necesarias y otras como regalo de bienvenida . Galway es un sitio estupendo al igual que Irlanda , sobre todo por sus habitantes . La casa es muy confortable y tranquila.
Cordial, simpático. Casa de acordo com a descrição.

We are both semi retired and working part time as tutors in a third level college. We are keen travellers during holidays and love to explore new places. Our two grown up children now do their own thing on holidays, but occasionally like to join us. We have house swapped many times before and found it wonderful. We ideally would like a duration of approximately two to three weeks, but are quite flexible. There are many countries we would like to visit and look forward to hearing from you.
