Hylands Burren Hotel

This family-friendly hotel is located in the centre of the quaint Irish village of Ballyvaughan, County Clare. Ballyvaughan is located on the west coast of Clare, south of Galway along the N67 road and 39 km north of the town of Ennis. The nearest beach is just a 10-minute drive from the hotel, and Shannon Airport lies some 30 km away. The warm welcome of an open fire mixed with the tranquillity of bygone charm and traditional Irish hospitality greets guests upon arrival at this 30-room hotel. The relaxing atmosphere, combined with quality service, is what makes this establishment so special. The lobby features a 24-hour reception and hotel safe, and there is a bar, pub and restaurant on site. For an additional fee, guests can enjoy room service. All of the individually decorated guestrooms come with an en suite bathroom (fitted with a shower, bathtub and hairdryer), a direct dial telephone, TV, an ironing set and tea and coffee making facilities. Traditional Irish musicians and storytellers often frequent the Burren Bar, which has a wonderfully enchanting atmosphere. The restaurant specialises in local seafood; the catch of the day, fresh from Ballyvaughan's tiny harbour comes highly recommended. The Burren Bar menu is an ideal choice for delicious snacks in the bars, which date back to the original coaching house.
