Ballyvara House is a family run luxury self catering home. We are John & Rebecca Flanagan and our daughters Hailey, Veronica & Olivia.

 

American born Rebecca met John in 1998 in Doolin. Ballyvara House is the originial Flanagan Family home, once a 100+ year old thatched cottage, which has been transformed into present day Ballyvara House. A 4-star award winning guesthouse which we now offer as a luxurious holiday home destination resulting in fantastic reviews and proving to be a great success.

 

Located on over 20 acres of green Irish countryside with views of rolling fields and Doonagore Castle in the distance. Doolin village is within a half mile walk down the road and Doolin pier is 2 miles away where one can catch a ferry to the Aran Islands or a cruise to view the majestic Cliffs of Moher. The white sand beaches of Lahinch and Fanore are within a 20 min. drive, as well as the famed Lahinch Golf Course.

 

There is ample space within Ballyvara House that several families can stay and never feel crowded. Get the bar stocked and enjoy a drink in the lounge in front of a roaring fire or a welcoming glass of wine out on the patio in the courtyard garden. Children will always be entertained with the pool table, tennis and play village, as well as feeding our 2 resident donkeys that roam the fields around the property.
