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!

there was a Match-making Festival happening in September in nearby villages of west of ireland, named biggest party for singles in the world. this was the best accommodation in terms of crowd-avoidance and distance from local attractions. we could have stayed little longer...
This hotel is on top of my list for our Ireland trip. While not convenient for a Galway visit, it's absolutely perfect to get away from it all. It's extremely charming, with views to die for and hosts that go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The two "relaxation rooms" were always ready with a warm fire and it made for a perfect ending of a day spent sightseeing. I can't praise the hosts enough for their attentiveness and overall hospitality. The breakfast was excellent every morning. A true gem!
Very friendly reception. The landlady is cordial and willing to provide information. The rooms were spacious, clean and in a quiet location on the Cliffs of Moher.
The house is almost in the center of the village. Sea, restaurants and harbor are within very short walking distance. A grocery store for shopping is only 50 meters away.
Breakfast was extensive and very good.
We would try again to book this accommodation on a renewed trip to this place.
The location was perfect for our stay right in the centre of Ballyvaughan near to cafes and restaurants. The house was clean , bright and comfortable.
Only downside was our en-suite did not work during our stay. The owner was notified and said it would require to be checked by an electrician. In this instance we were lucky to be able to use the shower in the main bathroom as we were not sharing the house with anyone else.
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)
Cappabhaile was in a beautiful location near to town with some nice restaurant choices. We were giving a very friendly welcome and treated to the BEST breakfast in two weeks in Ireland! We had to skip lunch! The room had a lovely view of the hills to enjoy a cup of tea. The beds were comfy and the room had a lot of space to relax. Overall it was a wonderful stay!
Ballyvaughan Lodge is an exceptional bnb. The attention to detail was phenomenal, and our stay felt very special. Gerry and Pauline are wonderful hosts and had fantastic recommendations for the local area. The room was fabulous and the breakfast is delicious, really sets you up for the day!
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.
Great staff. Nice room. Elevator available which is rare for a 3 story hotel and certainly a big plus for the elderly or less-mobile. Bar and restaurant on-site with very nice food. Limited vegetarian selection but the veg special was excellent the evening we visited.
incredibly well set up for family stay, great garden with lovely light sun room on the back of the cottage. Local amenities all in walking distance. Perfect location for visiting all the best sites on the Wild Atlantic route. Highly recommend.
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.
Great place equidistant between Lisdoonvarna and Ballyvaughan which were both 8 km away - Well equipped apartment in rural setting in beautiful location. Eggs and wine on table on arrival - nice touch
Excellent location. Very helpful and friendly staff when we arrived. We had booked on short notice but our room was ready early. Hotel has a great cozy bar with a fire and excellent pints of stout.
We had a gorgeous stay at Ballyvaughan. Gerry and his wife were really welcoming and the breakfast was delicious. The lodge is beautifully presented and maintained. We would definitely stay again.
