Helen was an extremely welcoming host, providing laundry facilities and also recommendations on local hikes (she even lent me a book of hikes in the area) and other activities. The place was roomy, had a full kitchen, and was perfect for our stay.

We were greeted by the cheerful host family who led us to our comfortable, clean rooms each containing it's own bathrooms. After a fabulous full breakfast of our choice, we were given a tour of the farm. Our 18 year old boy said, "Holding and bottle feeding the new born lamb was the highlight on my trip". The host, and her husband clearly seem to love sharing the joys of life on the farm with guests. This clean and modern farmhouse is in a secluded area, but only 10-15 minutes drive to great restaurants and go to historic attractions.

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...
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.
We loved this B&B. we felt welcomed like we were family. my kids said it felt like leaving their granny’s house as we departed. It was clean, comfy, and safe, with a lovely breakfast that was my kids’ favorite since we left the US 2 months ago to travel Europe, Africa and Asia. we felt spoiled. <3 overall a great experience. we would definitely stay here again and plan to next trip to Ireland. :)
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.
This place is a gem. Karen was so friendly and helpful in every way. Our room was spacious, spotless, and the bed was quite comfortable. The "Irish breakfast" was the best we had throughout our visit to Ireland. Our stay at the Creggs helped make Ballyvaughan the highlight of our holiday. We recommend this place highly and hope to return.
This was our second stay at The Waters Country House. It is an amazing place, with rustic rooms, an atmospheric vibe and friendly proprietors. The location couldn't be better, close to the village of Ballyvaughan, the Burren, the Wild Atlantic Way and the Cliffs of Moher. We would return without hesitation on our next visit to the area.
Peaceful, beautiful, relaxing, and healing. Our stay was way too short. Wolfgang and Maria are the most wonderful, helpful, intriguing and engaging couple I've had the pleasure of meeting in Ireland. When I next visit Ireland, I look forward to staying with them longer. The views are amazing.
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.
Perfect location for all the attractions in the Burren and less than a minutes walk to Ballyvaughan where there are lots of good restaurants and bars. Awesome host, we are happy to highly recommend it and would happily visit again.
Burren Court holiday homes are just up the hill from the beautiful Ballyvaughan , they are ideal for family holiday get together or small breaks away . comfy beds great walks nearby staff are very helpful can’t recommend enough .
The staff in Wild Atlantic Lodge were all extremely welcoming and helpful.
I thoroughly enjoyed breakfast on both mornings - fast, efficient and friendly service and delicious food with a great selection.
Thank you.
Such an amazing hotel, lovely staff and comfortable beds. Really enjoyed our stay here and we will most definitely be back again. Beautiful location just beside the sea and sitting on the Burren.
The hotel was well appointed, very clean and quiet. The guest receptionist was kind and thoughtful. I fell ill while there, and she called me room to check on my, brought me soup at lunchtime.
Had a lovely stay, the hotel was top notch and I really enjoyed myself. However my stay was marred by developing a very bad back, so hotel staff helped me contact my insurance company.
