Bordering the dramatic Burren Region and Connemara, Ballyvaughan is a great base for walkers, cyclists and nature enthusiasts. Home to over 70% of Ireland’s native flora, The Burren supports equally diverse wild life – from wild goats to pine martens and a wide variety of butterflies. It is also rich in archaeological features including over 500 ring forts and more than 80 Neolithic tombs. Beneath the surface is a labyrinthine cave network, disappearing streams and lakes.
There is an abundance of outdoor activities on offer locally including diving at the Burren Adventures Dive Centre, rock climbing with Nigel Calendar, sea angling and horse riding. Dolphin and whale watching is available at Carrigaholt and the local Burren Birds of Prey Centre is definitely worth a visit.
This part of Co. Clare’s Burren coast is famous for good surf and there are a number of good surf schools and equipment stores in the area including the Lahinch Surf School, 30 minutes away and Aloha Surf School at Fanore, a really lovely Blue Flag Beach, just 20 minutes from Ballyvaughan.
The charming fishing village of Doolin is 25 minutes away and ferries leave regularly from Doolin Pier to the Aran Islands and also taking visitors to view the famous Cliffs of Moher from the sea.
This self catering accommodation in Ballyvaughan is the prefect base from which to explore the Burren Coast, northern Clare and southern Galway.
