Kingston, Taylor’s Hill, and old Salthill are Galway city's most prestigious and sought after residential areas primarily due to the fact they are close to the city centre and Salthill Promenade and have a choice of old established schools and services within the areas. The Orchard is made up of similar large detached family homes around a central green area and offers a safe environment.
