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.

With free parking, this guest house offers easy access to the stunning Irish countryside. Corcomroe Abbey, an early 13th-century Cistercian monastery, is 20 minutes’ drive away. Our hosts, Wolfgang and Maria were delightful and so helpful. We felt at home in our cosy Burren suite and also in the common areas. Breakfasts were amazing. Our 9 night stay would have to be the best ever for me.

Situated in Doolin and only 11 km from Cliffs of Moher, Knockaguilla House Bed & Breakfast features accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking. Boasting a housekeeping service, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. The accommodation offers private check-in and check-out and bicycle parking for guests. Lovely place. Marie and her husband did everything to make us feel welcome. We had an early departure and they adjusted the breakfast time so we could have breakfast before leaving. The room was very comfortable and super clean. I love seeing the stars from my window without any kind of light. I will definitely come back when I return to Doolin.

The Nest is located just 1.5km from the centre of Doolin village, boasting views of sunsets and the Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Islands.

All of The Nest's rooms have flat screen TVs, hairdryers and tea and coffee making facilities. All of the en-suites are equipped with power showers. The nest was charming and cozy with ‘tiny house’ vibes. A bit off the beaten path without a car, but still just a peaceful 20 minute walk into town on quiet country roads.
