Situated in Newtown, 5 minutes’ drive from Ballyvaughan and Galway Bay, The Waters Country House boasts over 40 acres of farmland at the foot of the Burren Hills. Ailwee Cave, also featuring an underground river and a waterfall, is only 3km from the property. This property is the most beautiful, majestic space with breathtaking architecture. It is nestled into a hill with views of The Burren and the sound of flowing water is around every corner. There are several inviting common areas complete with fireplaces and the feeling of contemplation and peace. We topped off our eve with a whiskey at the “help yourself” bar. The next morning we visited the Ailwee Caves (a must see) and the 16th century tower house called Newtown Castle which is part of Burren College of Art - there was true student talent. Both places are a short walk or drive from The Waters Country House. This is a one of a kind B & B NOT to be missed and Wolfgang and Maria are the most gracious proprietors!

This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 22 km from Galway Greyhound Stadium. Lovely Cottage in a beautiful area. If you are looking for some peace that's just the right place to go to. The furnishing was chosen with care and is top of the notch. The cottage is very clean and you can find everything that you could possibly need during your stay - even a washing machine and a dryer, Bill was a real highlight as well ;-) He was always in a good mood and very helpful. We were absolutely delighted to find a ready laid table with scones and a bottle of wine upon our arrival. We were lucky with the weather and had breakfast in the lovely garden every morning. We are looking forward to come back as the cottage is an ideal location for trips within Clare, Galway and Connemara. Be prepared, Bill ;-)
