The Waters Country House 3 stars

Ballyvaughan

Situated in Newtown, 5 minutes’ drive from Ballyvaughan and Galway Bay, The Waters Country House boasts over 40 acres of farmland at the foot of the Burren Hills. Ailwee Cave, also featuring an underground river and a waterfall, is only 3km from the property. Unforgettable experience! Surrounding area is very calm and beautiful (btw there is a very good fish restaurant in the nearby sea village). The house is more like a castle or a palace with rich, aristocratic interior full of history. Moreover, and it's a little bit of a spoiler, there is a water spring inside! The room we stayed in was also quite unique. This accomodation is very thoughtful, relaxing and inspiring.

Suaimhneas

Lahinch

The units in the country house are equipped with a flat-screen TV. The units are equipped with a private bathroom with a shower, while certain rooms here will provide you with a fully equipped kitchenette with a microwave. At the country house, each unit is equipped with bed linen and towels. The location was amazing and very close to Lahinch town centre. With picturesque views of the ocean and country side. The accomodation was clean and very comfortable to stay in. And Helen was very welcoming and accomodating. Her two dogs and two cats were extremely friendly and would definitely recommend if you’re an animal lover.

Aran View Country House 3 stars

Doolin

Built in the Georgian period in 1736, Aran View Country House stands on a hill on the coast road and commands one of the finest views of the wild Clare coastline. Doolin village is just 10 minutes' walk away. I really loved my stay at Aran View Country house. Its a great little bed and breakfast with lots of country charm. The views of the cliffs from the front of the property were breathtaking and I slept like a baby both nights I was there. Thank you!
