Beautiful little inn. Highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a room while traveling in Ireland. Friendly service with a made to order breakfast included.
This is a really nice property just a couple of kms out of town, there’s a few good food options and plenty to do in the area. The breakfast choice is fantastic and the rooms are really nicely decorated and very spacious

We enjoyed our stay here, staff were very nice. We had a bonus hour's worth of traditional Irish music performed in the living room, it was really good. Breakfast was fantastic! My only negative about the property was that it was very dated, especially the bathroom, other than that, enjoyable place to stay.

Our host Colin was great! The breakfasts were amazing.
super nice hosts, Connor was very kind and shared a lot about the Burren, and Ferris in the kitchen, with a selection of warm breakfast each day you can chose from if you want to stay several days
i had a double room with chairs and tons of space, very spacious, comfortable, clean with beautiful views of one of the Burren hills
a car or bikes would be needed to get around as roads are narrow and dangerous to walk, lots to do around, perfect location to explore the area, plenty to do from there with a car, but not a bustling town situation
I went to sheep dog demonstration under stormy conditions and had a wonderful time
The property is nestled in a rural area close to Ballyvaughan. Conner was so gracious and directed us to town with a few directions for dinner!
We slept so well and were presented with a 5 star breakfast served by the lovely Margaret.
Everything is 5 star! We loved our stay and would recommend this place to anyone.cheersMucheke and Stwve
Super nice staff. Comfortable beds and cute little sitting area. Had a great view of a cute little cow field next door.
Easy to get to Doolin and the cliffs of Moher from here
