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 had a lovely stay with Gerry and Pauline at Ballyvaughan Lodge really enjoyed the Hospitality and Gerry's great ability to remember names of people he has just met for the first time. Very impressive choice of fruit and cereals for breakfast and the traditional fry up sets you up for the day. Within easy walking distance of nice pubs and restaurants
Can highly Recommend
Superb location - within 2 minutes walk of a shop, restaurants, the pier.
The view was incredible - the house looks right over the water.
Would highly recommend for an intergenerational family holiday, both for the generous-sized house (with ground floor rooms), the location in Ballyvaughan, and the range of activities within an easy driving distance
Wow! Wow! Wow! The Monks Ballyvaughan far exceeded my expectations! Just a gorgeous property just across from the pier. Our room was do comfortable with every amenity you could think of. Very clean and updated bathroom. We had dinner in the attached restaurant and the included breakfast was lovely. The staff were exceptional. Highly recommend!
Great house in a great location. The house was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. It was like (an improved version) of home from home. It was also a perfect launch point to visit all the attractions that Clare has to offer. Being within very short walking distance of shops and restaurants made evenings easy. Highly recommended!
It's a very old mansion. He has his own church where holy water splashes. There's a lot of stories here. It's in a very good place for people who do wild atlantic way. Breakfast is a sublime European and English breakfast. I recommend it to families and travelers.Safe parking for cars and Motorbike.Owners very kind and helpful.Thanks .
Big huge room and a very comfy bed awaits at the Hylands. The staff are very professional and absolutely lovely! The breakfast was wonderful and the dinner on offer was even better. Nice wine by the glass was a plus. The view of the Burren in the morning out my window was lovely to wake up to.
Pauline and Gerry welcomed us as old friends in their home, the hospitality was really beyond expectations. The house was super clean and I think I have never tried such good breakfasts. If you want to taste west Ireland staying in a super lovely place, this is the choice
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.
Perfect stay with excellent value! The most welcoming host, Karen accommodated our late check in and gave us good information for our road trip. Breakfast was fantastic! It was our favorite accomodation on a 5 day trip in Ireland. Would definitely go back!
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.
Wolfgang and Maria are wonderful hosts. Their hospitality made this our favorite stop on our two week trip through Ireland. The house and the well are magical and peaceful. We loved the breakfast, views and atmosphere. Highly recommend!
We had a gorgeous stay at the Creggs in the perfect little town of Ballyvaughan. From our welcome to the freshly cooked breakfast to the comfortable room, everything was lovely & full of care. Karen makes hosting looks effortless.
The hotel was beautiful with polite owners and an amazing breakfast. The room was spacious with everything you need and the bed was huge. The hotel has its own parking space which was very convince. Every thing was great!
Bridget was really nice. She tried to help us with whatever information she could share about Restaurants, parking etc. She asked for breakfast choices well in advance. Premises and rooms are kept clean.
Lovely quiet room at the top of the hotel. Spotlessly clean which is very important in Covid times. Fantastic location to explore Co Clare and Galway.
Great breakfast.
