Furbo (Na Forbacha) is a settlement with a population of around 800 in Connemara. It lies along the coast of Galway Bay between Barna and Spiddal.
It is the first settlement to the west of Galway where Irish is the language used in the school, church and at community meetings. The headquarters of the Gaeltacht Authority - Údarás na Gaeltachta is located in Furbo. Although in the Gaeltacht, English is commonly used in day to day life, particularly amongst younger age groups. It has a typical Gaeltacht style of settlement with no village street or centre, but rather comprises around fourteen townlands, most of which run North to South from the bog to the foreshore.
Although the area is only 12km from Galway City centre it has maintained its rural nature quite successfully in recent years due to strong opposition to large scale development from locals. Due to its proximity to Galway City, and consequential pressure from property developers, housing developments generally have an Irish language clause applied. Currently many developments have a requirement that 50% plus of housing units are reserved for Irish speakers.
DIRECTIONS - From Spiddal, continue towards Galway City for approx. 5km. Turn left just before National School (on right) and take 1st right. Continue towards property which is on the l.h.s.
This property offers exceptional value for money.
