Gill and Pat warmly welcomed us. Everything here is excellent. Room, en-suite, breakfast, wi-fi, location, the view from our bedroom. And chatting with our hosts! This is a great base for walking in the Burren. Or swimming at Fanore beach. There was live Irish music in the local pub on Sunday night. We loved Fanore.

We had an amazing time at the Orchid house ! The room was comfy, the view amazing, the breakfast on point and the hosts were very nice. :-) Would definitely recommend for a family, couples or friends for a break on the Burrenway or the coastline.

This BnB was so lovely! I had the best night here. The room was so cute, cozy, and comfortable, and mine had a view of the sea. The breakfast was delicious, everything was so good including the yummy potato pancakes. The host was so great – very informative and knowledgeable and gave me several handy tips for my walk. They were also fantastic in communicating about the services in the village. I was sorry I only had one night to stay, and would certainly stay here again!

This location has beautiful coastal views, amazing hiking and wonderfully kind hosts. We had a fantastic stay, and will definitely be returning in the future. The Orchid house has clean comfortable rooms, a nice choice of breakfast options and fantastic access to hiking in the burren.

Stayed with Gill and Pat years ago, had a lot of car trouble and Gill was so kind and took such good care of us and gave great advice on how to deal with our problem, and even took us to Doolin so we could rent bikes for the rest of our stay! This time, it was very much the same, apart from the fact I was travelling solo and had no car trouble. But the experience was the same, if not better! Greeted by Gill on arrival, shown to my spotless clean En-suite room overlooking the sea. Asked for my breakfast order and times I would like to eat. I felt so much more than warmly welcomed. Breakfast was amazing with home made muffins and brown bread. Completely amazing place, completely welcoming and friendly owners. Breath taking views and wonderful chats at break fast with Gill aswel. Completely respected the guidelines of covid 19 and I was not even slightly worried about the cleanliness of the entire house. Currently planning my next visit. 100% would recommend to anyone!…

Really great place looks like it was just built. Beautiful ocean view in a quiet area. Gill and Pat are wonderful hosts. Breakfast was excellent offered more than we could eat. We were there in early September. Pub down the street had best seafood chowder we had in Ireland. Thanks Gill and Pat for your hospitality.

Four of us rented 2 rooms and were all very pleased. The rooms were both very nice and all we needed. The breakfast was delicious. Gill and Patrick were wonderful. We had some problems our booked tour and they treated us like family trying to do all they could to help us out. This stay made our trip more enjoyable
