Patricia was a wonderful host and greeted us immdeiately upon entry. The inn is perfect for a stay in the Irish countryside. Breakfast was fantastic and, again, Patricia demonstrated the epitome of service, We certainly highly recommend this lovely B B!

Alyssa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a lovely stay with Patricia. Great location about 35 mins out of Galway so you can have the best of a big city then retreat to a quiet room in the country. Full Irish breakfast available and fascinating castle and Celtic garden very close by. Had a fabulous meal in nearby Oughterard at Powers Thatch too. Would recommend if you want to be a bit out of town.

Amazing experience and delicious food!

We had a great stay at the Mountain View Guesthouse! The house and room were very clean and well decorated, it felt very homey. Patricia was friendly and helpful when making plans around the area. Patricia also prepared a delicious full Irish breakfast! I would definitely recommend staying here!

Loved my stay here! Patricia was a complete sweetheart and her breakfast was delicious. The room was in amazing condition, super clean and comfortable. It's in a quiet area if you want to get a feel for the country but also within driving distance of a cute shopping and dining area. Definitely recommend and plan on returning!

Nice guesthouse just out of the town. Very friendly host, good breakfast. Our window did overlook the car park on ground floor though.

Nice B & B

Very nice bed & breakfast with our own bathroom connected to the room. Rooms are a little on the small side but comfortable. It was a cold, rainy day & when we asked about the heat we were told it was off for the summer but hostess graciously turned it on so that we could get warmed up. Very pleasant hostess who welcomed us & suggested a restaurant nearby for dinner (Powers Thatch Bar & Restaurant) which was excellent. Breakfast was home cooked by hostess & good variety. Don’t book here if you’re going to be late arriving. Last checkin is 7pm. We thought we might be late & called ahead. Hostess was gracious & told us not to worry as traffic in Galway can be a problem. We did make it before 7pm, though.

Nous avons passé une nuit au mountain view et nous avons été très contents. Accueil,chambre, propreté tout était parfait. Le petits déjeuner très bon. La propriétaire est très sympathique et aux petits soins.

Such a great place!!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The rooms were spacious, charmingly decorated, and very comfortable. The location was absolutely beautiful, located in a quiet town with a fabulous old castle right down the road. What really made the trip great, however, was Patricia and her family. She was the most gracious and generous host, went out of her way several times to help us without being asked, helped give advice on the best pub for dinner, and much more. She asked what our plans were each morning, then checked in about how it went when we got back at the end of the day. She stood on the front steps to wave goodbye as we got in the taxi the morning we left. If you want to feel truly cared for during your stay, you must come here. I would come back in a heartbeat, and I’ve told my family they need to stay here if they’re ever in the area. Thank you Patricia & family!!
