Om overnatningsstedet

Luksuriøs Sommerhus med Wifi i hjertet af Burren, Ballyvaughan.

Holly Lodge ligger på den vilde Atlantic Way, om Burren Way / Green Road tæt på Burren College of Art oprindeligt en runde tårn slot fra det 16. århundrede (Newtown Castle) og kun 10 minutters kørsel fra den maleriske landsby Ballyvaughan, en fortryllende landsby på West Atlantic Coast Irlands i hjertet af Burren National Park, en Karst kalksten region, en af ​​de største i Europa, hvor du vil finde Arktis, Middelhavet og alpine planter side om side. Det er et ideelt udgangspunkt for alle rejsende at nyde en af ​​de mest fascinerende steder i Irland og Europa.

The Burren er rig med historiske og arkæologiske steder tilbyder fantastiske muligheder for at udforske, vandreture, cykling, klatring og et væld af vandsport såsom surfing, kajakroning og lystfiskeri er blot nogle af de aktiviteter til rådighed for din nydelse.

Ballyvaughan betragtes som juvelen i kronen af ​​Burren-regionen og har et udvalg af gode restauranter, butikker med kunsthåndværk og traditionelle pubber.

Det er den ideelle base til at udforske den rige arv af Burren og de omkringliggende områder. Den berømte Burren Way (26 miles af grønne vej) starter Ballyvaughan, går til Fanore, Doolin og slutter i Liscannor tage i Cliffs of Moher. Ballyvaughan er omgivet af storstensgravene såsom Poulnabrone Dolmen (der er rapporteret at være over 6000 år, hvilket gør det mere antikke end pyramiderne!), Celtic ringborge og middelalderlige kirker og slotte.

Ballyvaughan, en oase i Burren tilbyder en varm velkomst til alle. Uanset hvad det er du leder efter - spændende eventyr, romantiske pauser, afslappende med venner - vil du finde det hele her.

For golfspillere, den berømte linksbane på Lahinch er kun en tredive minutters kørsel fra huset og længere nede i Clare kysten er Greg Norman designet Doonbeg kursus.
Der er også et udvalg af kurser såsom Ennis og Dromoland Castle Golf og Country Club.

Tæt på huset den uspolerede strande i Bishops Quarter og Fanore inviterer dig til at svømme, kajak og surf. Den beskyttede Ballyvaughan Bay er velegnet til alle former for vandaktiviteter.
Også ligger en kort køretur fra huset er den berømte Flaggy Shore - »Efterskrift« den smukke digt af Seamus Heaney.

Shannon International Airport er blot en time væk fra Holly Lodge.

Når Burren er i flor markerne omkring huset blomstrer med unikke sjældne vilde blomster, såsom den »blå ensian« - alpine blomst.

Tag et kig rundt på vores luksus tilbagetog, beliggende i hjertet af den smukke Burren. Forfra og bagsiden af ​​huset kan du se en spektakulær udsigt over bjergene i Burren, dens kalksten fortove, en visning af Burren College of Art oprindeligt fra det 16. århundrede Newtown Slot, Aillwee Cave, Burren Birds of Prey Centre og Galway Bay.

Huset er designet til at optimere udsigten. Huset er centralt opvarmet hele vejen igennem. Værelserne er store med suiterne og walk-in garderober. Køkken og spiseplads er rummelige med alle bekvemmeligheder. Når det er tid til at slappe af i stuen, som er for det meste glaseret at tage i de synspunkter, vinker at sætte fødderne op, med sine plys lædersofaer og bløde møbler.

Der er rigelig parkeringspladser med store private græsplæner og bag med sten siddepladser og bord.

Selve huset er et unikt design med en stor følelse af plads og komfort, med udsigt over Burren Mountains og Galway Bay.

We had a lovely stay overall. The house itself is fantastic – spacious, very clean, and with beautiful bathrooms. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated the many welcome treats, snacks, and drinks provided – such a thoughtful touch.There were a couple of small drawbacks: in the upstairs bedroom we couldn’t close the door to the hallway or the walk-in closet, and the wind can get a bit loud at night on the upper floor.In terms of location, there aren’t too many hiking trails nearby, but the one we found was very nice. Grocery shopping requires about a 25-minute drive, so it’s something to keep in mind.All in all, a great place to stay with wonderful hosts, and we truly enjoyed our time there.

Wonderful house in a unique location

The house is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It has everything you might need. The sitting room is amazing, surrounded by windows so you are looking at the Burren from the sofa. The kitchen is huge and we liked having the dining table there close to the big windows. It’s very quiet and very comfortable, and it’s just five minutes by car from town. The surroundings are spectacular. Mary and Poppy were extremely kind. They were very flexible with the check in /out time. They left plenty of coffe, tea, and even chocolates for us. They were quick to answer any question we might have. We liked the house so much that we didn't want to leave. We recommend it, it is probably the best rental house we ever had.

Wonderful stay!

Mary's house was perfect for us. The location, privacy, views all wonderful. The house was very well equipped for our 5 night stay, we lacked nothing. Such a peaceful spot within a short drive of Ballyvaughan and several restaurant options. If you are looking for a quiet spot near all the Burren has to offer, this is your place!

Die Ausstattung der Küche , der Zimmer und Bäder ließen keine Wünsche offen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber verlief problemlos und bei unserer Ankunft waren sogar Lebensmittel, Kuchen, Kaffee und Milch vor Ort. Nochmals danke dafür. Alles in allem ein rundum perfekter Urlaub.

Stillness of the Burren

There is something special about the stillness of the Burren. The views of the windswept limestone hills were breathtaking. Peace and quiet, with easy access to some of the best sights of County Clare: Cliffs of Moher, Poulnabronne, Galway City. Hoke was perfect. Setting was perfect. Hosts were very thoughtful. Thank you!

Home in the fairyland for a week

Mary is an amazing host - she escorted us personally to the property, ensured we knew how everything works so we have a comfortable break and even brought some supplies. It is like being at home but in a totally surreal beautiful location - views from all the windows are so stunning that you don't really need to go anywhere if the rain has its way ))) Plenty of information about the attractions, very comfortable and well equipped. We could properly chill out as a family and it was perfectly safe for our child with additional needs. Thank you Mary, I am glad I found your listing.

Lovely, gracious home

My family of four (two adults and two kids age 12 and 9) had a wonderful stay in Holly Lodge, Ballyvaughn in July 2018. The house is large and comfortable with everything we needed to relax and spread out. We loved the sun room with its amazing views from multiple large windows; sunsets were beautiful. We loved the fact that we could see a castle (Newtown Castle/Burren College of Art) from inside the house. Mary was such a kind host - meeting us at the church parking lot to escort us to the house, which she had prepped with home-made soda bread, delicious Irish butter, an apple pie, a carton of milk, and plenty of coffee and tea. Next door and/or across the lane neighbors are sheep, cows, horses, and donkeys. The road is quiet, with little traffic. The location is great for exploring the Burren. The kitchen is a bit under-supplied for cooking, but we were able to creatively make do. We ate and drank at many local places, and had good food and friendly service everywhere. Favorites are Linnane's in New Quay, Monk's in Ballyvaughan, etc. It was unusually hot when we visited so we spent lots of time at beaches like Flaggy Shore and Bishop's Quarter in Newquay, Lahinch, Fanore, and had a great time tidepooling and swimming. The house is a very short drive from Ailwee caves and the Poulnabrone Dolmen, along with other fun cultural sites like Corcomroe Abbey, Cliffs of Moher and St. Brigid's well among others. Very highly recommended!

A very comfortable home, with fabulous views!

Mary was a most welcoming and helpful host even before our arrival, and when we walked in and saw the panoramic views from her house we knew we'd come to the perfect location. Spacious and comfortable and well equipped, Holly Lodge is very well placed for exploring the Burren and the Galway area, and with the beautifully situated little town of Ballyvaughan close at hand providing excellent restaurants and tearooms and some shopping facilities. A most relaxing week and we would happily return!

Absolut empfehlenswert!

Wir durften, nach unserer erlebnisreichen und anstengenden Irland-Rundreise, eine sehr erholsame Woche in diesem Ferienhaus verbringen. Das Haus mit seiner großzügigen Ausstattung bietet alles, was man für einen angenehmen Auffenthalt benötigt. Besonders zu erwähnen ist der herzliche Empfang durch Mary! Sie hat an alles gedacht, sogar an eine "Erstausstattung" für ein gemütliches Kaffee- /Teetrinken nach der Ankunft. Dafür und für die schöne Zeit möchten wir ihr nochmals herzlich danken. Vielen Dank auch für die vielen Informationen im Vorfeld!

Peace and quiet in a picturesque setting.

We enjoyed our stay at Holly Lodge. The house was cozy, well kept, and had all the comforts of home. Mary was a helpful , informative, and caring host. We arrived to fresh soda bread, apple pie, eggs, milk, coffee and tea. She checked in with us during our stay to make sure that we had everything we needed. The area is very quiet and the sounds of cows and sheep on the hills can be heard. We found the Burren , an untouched limestone landscape to be quite fascinating. The town of Ballyvaughan is lovely and the area allows for day trips to Connemara, Galway, the Cliffs, a drive down the beautiful atlantic coast, and much more. Thank-you Mary for sharing Holly Lodge with us!

Home and property is exactly as described

Mary was a great hostess, very attentive - helped us get our bearings on the first day and made sure the essentials (coffee!!) were already in the home. Holly lodge was very clean and comfy. The kitchen was very well appointed for those days when we planned to cook in; the location was great for seeing the west coast, including the Aran Islands. You will need to be patient to drive places to get groceries etc., as distances in the Burren are deceiving :-). A lovely spot to explore the West and a not too bad 2.5-3 hour trip to Dublin! Thanks a million Mary

My Irish Eyes are still smiling!

We just returned from a beautiful week's stay at Holly Lodge. We have visited Ireland twice before, but the first time visiting County Clare and the spectacular Burren. Mary was so wonderful to correspond with from the very beginning. She was very prompt in answering any questions via email regarding the house and or suggestions for visiting this part of Ireland. She also sent some very helpful information about the area which added to our excitement counting down to our trip. My husband and I traveled with my son and daughter in law. We all loved the house. Mary made us feel so welcome. She did a marvelous job telling us about her home and also surprised us with some fantastic brown bread, apple pie, milk, butter and a bottle of Bailey's Irish Cream!!! She had the teapot hot for us when we arrived, and supplied tea and coffee. Her home is beautiful. The kitchen was huge and was well equipped. The living room was so comfortable with gorgeous views from every window. Actually, the views from every window made it hard to leave each day. There are three big bedrooms, closets and 3 bathrooms. The house is immaculate. Every night we would have a fire in the living room and relax. Mary supplies logs! This was a favorite time of day. We visited so many places. The house is just ideal for visiting western Ireland. We visited Galway, Cliffs of Moher, Ailwee Caves, and travelled all over the beautiful Burren. The village of Ballyvaughan is just lovely. There is a wonderful store to pick up any groceries if needed. We ate at several of the local restaurants and they were wonderful. We ate twice at Monks. So pretty by the water and the fresh Seafood platter to die for. Another favorite was Burren Fine Wine and Food. This place was adorable and the food and service was exceptional. Mary's house is someplace you can only dream of staying. We loved the sheep and cows in the nearby fields, some of the best neighbors ever. We ate fresh local ice cream, star gazed at night and marveled at the rainbows. Holly Lodge and the Burren truly are magical and we would most definitely stay again.

Beautiful light spacious home with wonderful views

Beautifully situated in The Burren with lovely views over the valley. Our home for the week was spacious and well appointed and situated very close to Ballyvaughan which has some lovely restaurants. Mary Nix our host was helpful and approachable giving us many tips before we arrived and a comprehensive visitors folder. The kitchen is well equipped and we were provided with a lovely welcome basket of a few essentials and a locally baked pie. There is an open fire in the stunning sitting room and the logs, starter and matches were provided. As a family of 5 adults we had more than enough space here. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and comfortable. This is a beautiful home from home and cannot recommend it enough as it is perfectly located to explore The Burren either by car or on foot. We will certainly be returning to this gem.

Tolles Haus mit wunderschönem Rundumblick

Das Haus ist super ausgestattet, mit allem, was man im Urlaub braucht. Mary, die Vermieterin des Hauses, durften wir jederzeit kontaktieren, wenn wir Fragen hatten (z.B. beste Wetterbedingungen für Fährüberfahrt auf die Aran Islands = sehr zu empfehlen!). Wir wurden mit leckerem Apfelkuchen, Muffins, Kaffee, Tee, Milch etc. begrüßt und haben uns in dem Haus rundum wohlgefühlt. Die Aussicht aus den Fenstern ist ein Traum. Die Lage ist für Ausflüge in die Umgebung perfekt. In ca. 1 Stunde ist man in Galway, in 25 Minuten in Doolin (Fährhafen), in 40 Minuten an den Cliffs of Moher. Ballyvauhgan (4 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt, 20 Minuten zu Fuß) ist ein gemütlicher Ort mit schönen Restaurants/Cafes, einem kleinen, aber sehr gut ausgestatteten Supermarkt und Pubs. Wir haben einen tollen, erlebnisreichen Urlaub gehabt und können das Haus wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

Our stay in the Irish Countryside at Holly Lodge

We had the most wonderful time staying at Holly Lodge. Mary is the most gracious hostess, providing us with freshly baked goods, coffee and milk in a lovely welcome basket! She is so kind and thoughtful. The house is very clean and well maintained, exactly as pictured. The house is in a great location and we made day trips every day to the many sights and attractions that are nearby. It was so nice to "go home" after a long day and the country setting was beautiful, great for walks. It was a magical vacation and we hope to return someday.

Sehr schönes Haus in faszinierender Landschaft

Das Haus liegt in Mitten des Burren, in 4 Minuten ist man nach Ballyvaughan gefahren, zu Fuß sind es ca 20 Minuten. Das Haus verfügt über eine topausgestattete Küche, sogar ein Smoothie-Mixer ist vorhanden. Mein Highlight-Zimmer war das lichtdurchlutete Wohnzimmer mit Kamin, von dem aus man in drei verschiedene Richtungen auf die grandiose Landschaft sehen kann. Das Haus hat 3 Schlafzimmer, sehr schön eingerichtet, Matratzen prima (nicht durchgelegen, haben wunderbar geschlafen). Benötigte Utensilien wie Toilettenpapier, Seife, Spülmittel, Handtücher, Küchentücher etc. war alles ausreichend vorhanden. Die Lage des Hauses ist für Unternehmungen perfekt. In einer Stunde ist man im lebendigen Galway, in knapp 30 Minuten in Doolin, von wo aus man mit der Fähre auf die Aran Islands (sehr zu empfehlen) fahren kann. Die Cliffs of Moher sind in knapp 45 Minuten prima zu erreichen. Ballyvaughan selbst ist ein kleines, süßes Dorf, in dem es sich prima Essen gehen lässt (Tea Garden), ein kleiner, aber gut ausgestatteter Einkaufsladen ist auch vorhanden. Mary, die Vermieterin, hat uns am Ankunftstag in Ballyvaughan abgeholt und uns zum Haus begleitet. Wir wurden mit einem leckeren Apfelkuchen, Muffins, Milch, Kaffee etc. begrüßt und konnten Mary jederzeit anrufen, wenn wir Fragen hatten oder Tipps (bestes Wetter für Fährüberfahrt) benötigten. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und hatten einen tollen Urlaub.

A Luxurious Holiday Home in the Burren

Holly Lodge is a luxurious holiday home nestled in the heart of the Burren Mountains. The rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished and decorated. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything the modern day chef requires. The house is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Burren. It is also very close to the village of Ballyvaughan with its cultural life, harbour, musical pubs, and shops. Cathleen Connole’s wonderful restaurant, Burren Fine Foods and Wine, is just a short distance away, as is The Burren College of Art. Holly Lodge is a perfect base from which to visit the attractions of Clare and Galway. Mary and Crissie are gracious hosts who have compiled a huge binder of local attractions, and several excellent books for guests to enjoy. They have created a beautiful holiday home and have thought of everything that a discerning traveller would need.

3 lovely weeks in May 2016

My husband, cousin and sister visited Holly Lodge for 3 weeks in May 2016 and what a lovely stay we had! My husband and I previously had met Mary and her mother last September when they graciously gave us a preliminary tour of the house and tea. She exceeded all of our expectations in May when she met us just off the dual carriageway from the airport and escorted us to the house for a delicious and plentiful continental breakfast. She also provided instruction on how to use the amenities. A well planned Information Book on activities and dining in the area was on the dining room table. She also provided many books on the ecology and culture of the area as well as a selection of useful maps. We especially loved the quiet of the countryside and the lovely views of The Burren from every window in the house, which sits on a walking lane. Sitting in the living room with fabulous views and a cozy fireplace to watch sunsets was extra special, as well as the lovely sunrises from the bedrooms on the upper floor. We could not have had a more wonderful vacation and much of it was thanks to Mary and her well-appointed house.

Stunning Home, Great Location, Welcoming Hostess

My husband and I stayed in Mary's beautiful home for a week in July 2015. The house is wonderful - spacious, clean, nicely decorated and has absolutely everything you will need for a relaxing vacation. The kitchen is huge - fully equipped, and there was a wonderful guest basket waiting for us. Local brown bread, butter, milk, crackers, jam, fresh apple pie and more. Such a nice surprise! The family room has views to die for. The Burren, the sea, Galway lights in the distance, and many many sheep! The wifi was flawless. The bathrooms spotless and the power showers worked great. The washer and dryer - complete with supplies - worked great. This is a great location to tour up and down the west coast and the wild Atlantic Way. Do not miss the Fear Gorta Tea Gardens in Bally Vaughan! Delightful for lunch or just tea and a slice of homemade cake and terrific cheesecake! There is a small but well stocked Spar supermarket in town. It has terrific "99" ice cream cones. And there is a nice Tourist Informatiion Center next door. Everyone is so friendly! Quite a few pubs, and the ones along by the small pier have great views. Mary was a terrific hostess. From the very first email / contact, we became friends. Mary went out of her way to make sure we would not miss any of the many highlights in the region. In fact, Mary has compiled a big binder full of maps and leaflets and information perfect for planning day trips and sightseeing. She also sent us email links to help build excitement for our trip. She kept in contact with us during our stay and was available if we needed her. Mary and her lovely mum met us on the day of our arrival in the town church yard and led us up to her house. The house is just like the photos but better! We highly recommend Mary's house and look forward to visiting again! Kind regards, Linda and Tom Smith

A wonderful family stay at Holly Lodge

We had a lovely stay at Holly Lodge. The home was very accommodating for our family of four, plus two friends. The beds were most comfortable and the kitchen amenities helpful for family meals. Holly Lodge is close to town for a quick pint, shopping and music. We enjoyed a beautiful hike, "Bells on the Burren", just down the road, as well as the Newtown Castle and Gallery tour at the Burren College of Art. Every window with a view. Close to many day trips, the ocean shore, beach, Burren, castles and ruins. Look for the treasure chest hidden within, enjoy the treasure but leave it and add one of your own. Thank you Mary, for such a wonderful stay. The Colorado Murray's
