A gem in Lahinch!

How fortunate we were to have discovered this gem of a place in Lahinch, situated nearby the Cliffs of Moher and The Burren. We loved our stay at Vaughn Lodge, feeling warmly welcomed with all our needs taken care of by our hosts and staff from check in through our departure. Our room and amenities were lovely, the breakfast buffet ample and menu delicious, our dinner in was exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing over cocktails in the beautifully appointed bar.
