We had a wonderful one night stay at Madra Rua in Ballyliffin room. The room was a good size with lovely sheets and towels. The owners are a lovely couple who also suggested we have dinner at Simpsons which was a good choice. Breakfast at Madra Rua was a hearty Spanish omelette and pancakes with fresh fruit served in a charming room. Highly recommended.

Organic Delight

This place was wonderful and everything was spot on. The breakfast was possibly the best we’ve had since being in Ireland and when they advertise ‘organic’ they really mean it. I would highly recommend this place if youre looking around this area as I can’t believe there would be better. Thank you Clara for your wonderful hospitality.
