We reached Karaun House to half of our trip to Ireland. We had been to several B & B and then stayed in several others, and certainly Karaun House and Teresa, the owner, were the best of our trip. The location, in a residential area of Clarinbridge, a small town near Galway is good. In 20-25 minutes drive you reach Galway. Also excellent for various excursions including the Aran Islands, Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, the Burren ... The scenery is spectacular and diverse, each trip was different from the previous one. The house is very large, the reception of Teresa made ​​us feel at home, and in the days we stayed at his house we get a lot of love. He cared for us, helped in planning the route, trying to integrate the different guests at breakfast ... The room we stayed in was very neat, with all the details to make you feel at home. Spotless and spacious, bright and full bathroom. At the end of our stay we were sorry to say goodbye to Teresa and her husband
