    Very little choice of places to eat or have a coffee.

    Very little choice of places to eat or have a coffee. Tea rooms not open at 11am on Thursday as suggested. Had a fab dinner at Monks and on a return visit next morning at 1130am had great tea n scones in front of blazing stove. Superb.

    The hosts were very friendly right from greeting us upon arrival and giving us tips to serving us breakfast before we left. The full Irish breakfast was very good. We had dinner before arriving in Ballyvaughan, and only stayed for one night. We had a car, so it was easy for us to drive into the town centre from there. We would stay there again. We were given tips of sites to see when we left, and one we were glad not to miss was the Poulnabrone Portal tomb.

    We only were able to stay one night. It was a great launch pad for visiting the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher. The people were friendly, the food was great and the pub was fun with local, live music! We recommend it!

    The Clare Way is a nice way for walkers.

    The Clare Way is a nice way for walkers. There are at least two good places to eat out. Some side roads are in a poor state of repair. Clare County Council need to fill the pot holes and try and keep the roads in decent repair. This includes some access routes to this property.

    A beautiful traditional Irish village with all you need for a comfortable varied stay in Ireland. Situated between the stunning Burren and the cliffs off the Atlantic Ocean, and nestled on the south side of Galway Bay, Ballyvaughan is ideally located. There are a lot of places to visit in the area. You can swim in the bay or on the nearby Bishop's Quarter beach. In Summer or Winter there are lovely places to visit and in Ballyvaughan alone, the fabulous Monk's seafood restaurant is a great spot with super friendly staff, a warm welcome and really fabulous food. I cannot wait to go back to Ballyvaughan!

    This was our first visit to Ireland and we couldn’t have expected a warmer welcome or wished for a nicer place to stay than with our hosts Pauline and Gerry at the Ballyvaughan Lodge. It felt as if we were staying with friends. These are warm people (with an excellent sense of humour by the way). Other reviewers mention the excellent breakfast, the clean and nicely decorated rooms, and the nice location. It’s all true. But it’s the hosts, who really go out of their way to help and care who made this a wonderful stay.

    At the end of our trip up the wild Atlantic way couldn’t think of a better place to end. It’s a truly unique property with both study and library to relax with a beer or a wine. The breakfast was superb. Also the surrounding scenery is stunning and a short walk to the nearest town which has a handful of restaurants and pubs. Also the water from the well is so good, tap or bottled water is just not the same!

    Very comfortable and spacious accommodation within 10 minutes walk of Ballyvaughan. Breakfast was very good with an extensive selection of fruit, cold meats and cheeses to compliment the hot food selection. The room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. An excellent location to explore West Clare and the Burren. Hosts are friendly and helpful. I would recommend staying here.

    Spotlessly clean with beautifully decorated rooms and modern bathroom facilities. the staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a great location, only 20 or so minutes drive from the cliffs of moher and other tourist attractions and within walking distance to a couple of restaurants in the village (I would advise booking these ahead of time in peak season)

    The location was terrific- walking distance to a couple of restaurants in the village, plus close to the bus stop if you are not driving. Breakfast was lovely with French press coffee, delicious cheeses and pastries, plus choice of eggs and bacon or an Irish breakfast.

    Fanciest B&B out of 3 trips to Ireland. More formal with paid staff rather than just the owner doing all the work.The breakfast room is more like a restaurant with a huge buffet of fresh fruits and homemade fruit compotes.
