Ard Aoibhinn, a beautiful, well fitted and maintained bungalow on an approximately half acre site of landscaped gardens, was built in 1996 and enjoys panoramic unobstructed views over Galway Bay.

Ard Aoibhinn provides high quality residential accommodation with spacious light-filled open plan living areas, and large picture and bay windows to take maximum advantage of the panoramic views of Galway Bay. It is fitted to a very high standard with very little wear and tear.

Our beloved leader

A “dictator” is a head of state who exercises arbitrary authority over the lives of his citizens and who cannot be removed from power through legal means. Kim Jong-Il of North Korea, Than Shew of Burma and Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe are all dictators. They rule not because they have the approval of their citizens but because they want to rule. Brian Cowen’s democratic credentials are becoming increasingly suspect in this regard. This is a worrying development because the Taoiseach should be committed to democracy by its definition and not just on his own terms.
