We had a very comfortable stay here, in a lovely room overlooking the garden. It is an easy walk into Kinvarra, which is a lovely town. A visit to Green's bar is a must!

Ann is a wonderful hostess and her place is lovely with a large bathroom and comfortable bed. Her breakfast was very good as well. She gave us a tip of a historic site to visit on our way back to Dublin that was really interesting and we would not have stopped at if she hadn't suggested it. :)

The lady of the house was lovely, very welcoming, and couldn’t do enough for us. The accommodation was top class and great value for money. We will stay here again when we visit North Clare or South Galway.

Pleasant stay.
Owner/Hostess was wholesomely welcoming. She gave us recommendations on places to visit. Warmly Friendly hostess. Very clean and tidy home that was Just rightly warm for the weather. I liked that the house was located just outside the busy city center. Front garden was a delight to behold. Breakfast? Hostess was generous with food. My sister and I were frankly impressed with this B&B.

Nice place.
House and bedroom/bathroom were very clean and tidy. The check-in time, 6pm, is a bit early for people wanting to tour. Breakfast was delicious and filling but I felt a bit rushed by staff to check out.

Convienent to many sites and very friendly hosts
We booked thru travelocity and they have the wrong phone #, However the "wrong" Arches gave us the phone # of the"correct" Arches and we were guided in by Ann. The room was great and the breakfast were fine. Conviently located to Galway, the Burrens, Cliffs of Mohr and Conemara areas.

Beautiful B&B
This comfy little B&B on the edge of town was quiet and had a beautiful view. The family who runs it is warm and friendly. Excelent place. I'd recommend it to all.
