    Not sure if it's within 2 hours of Galway but Kilkee in Co. Clare is really really nice.

    www.thehelm.info
    Stay in Westport, Brilliant, Home away from home. Lovely town. Stay in the helm. They have apts or B&B's whichever you want. If there is a gang of you and you want to go self catering try this one www.tridentholidayhomes.ie/counties/mayo/westport
    Promise you I am not on commission just adore Westport. Enjoy!
    Castlebar would be the next but its a bit like Dublin!
