We stopped in Ballyvaughan for one night on our trip along Ireland's west coast. It was the perfect place for trips around the wonderful Burren region.
The town itself is nothing really special but only a few miles away you will find forgotten cemetaries, limestoney grounds, caves and prehistoric sights.... The Burren really is one of my favourite areas in Ireland!
- Pros:Perfect Location for Trips around The Burren
- Cons:A bit sleepy
- In a nutshell:A perfect base in Co. Clare

The Monk's Pub is famous in the entire West for its mussels and seafood chowder! It's also very wheelchair-accessible, I found out to my surprise!
Interesting page. Ruins of churches look really mysterious... Thanks for sharing :)
Can I have Seafood without the Guinness here? How about Lonkero? :)))
A quiet Irishman is as rare a an Irishman without a drink. Hmm, perhaps they are the same one...lol
