We really had a nice stay here in this bb, one of the best of our experience in Ireland. Marian has welcomed us in a really cozy house, our room was clean and well furnished in a lovely yellow. We had a very nice sleep, the district is really quiet. What was missing was the city, unfortunately the bb is... More

Marian is a great hostess! She recommended a great Pub for dinner within walking distance in Oranmore. One of the best meals we had on our trip. Marian was also very helpful in suggesting a tour route for the following day which we followed to the tee and we were not disappointed. We came back late in the dark and... More

I was traveling Ireland with my son. We were staying at B&Bs along the way. The Birches is off the main road but very easy to find. We were greeted by the owner and shown to our room promptly. She offered us tea and delivered it to our room while we were settling in. The town of Orenmore was within... More

In a local neighborhood, close enough to Galway. Rooms clean, nice size, bathroom small, but had a hall bathroom that was larger. Hostess very friendly and accomodating, let us check in early and got up early to make us a filling breakfast for our long journey that day. Pleased with our selection.

Marian is a perfect hostes ! The room is clean and cosy, the house is close to the village centre and the breakfast is excellent! This is a B&B we can recommend to everybody. Eddy, Marianne and Tim ( Brugge, Belgium )

The bedroom was bigger than most hotel bedrooms.The bed was large and comfortable. The en-suite was spotlessly clean. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of... More

Having stayed at many B&B's in Ireland I would rate the Birches as the best. A great "home base" for all areas of the West of Ireland. Owners are very knowledgeable and helpful. I will include a stop here on every visit!

Quiet lodging outside of Galway. Beautiful rooms, and the hostess was very charming.
