We spent a lovely week over Xmas at Bayfield House. Beautiful location and property with lots to see and do within an hour’s drive. The owner was always quick to respond before and during the stay, and very helpful with suggestions for activities, restaurants etc. He went above and beyond to proved a Xmas tree with lights to help us celebrate the holiday. I highly recommend Bayfield House for any large group looking to enjoy Clare and Galway.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bayfield House. Location was great. Plenty of space for extended family of 13. Beautiful surroundings---Galway Bay, The Burren, cow and sheep pastures, old ruins, all in view.

Bayfield House is located on the beautiful Flaggy Shore, in the heart of the magnificent Burren - perfect for daily walks and hikes. The house is warm and welcoming, with lots of space for our party of 14 - adults and teenagers. We could all gather together comfortably in the large living and dining room, and those who wanted a quiet reading or chatting space also found many a cosy corner. Special touches include the wood-burning stove in the living room, the reading room on the first-floor landing, and the Christmas tree and lights provided by our host on request. We will definitely be back!

We were joined by the larger family for an afternoon and the house was a huge hit. The children loved the spacious garden and we all enjoyed the hidden patio where could all sit around the stone table and chat in the evening sun.

Bayfield House was a dream come true. A lovely house in the most beautiful location. The house was well equipped and catered to everyone’s needs on our big family vacation. A large house with a cozy.
The house is a close drive up to Galway and down to the Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Isles. All together PERFECT

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Bayfield house - it is nice and comfortable for a party of 12 to 14. Some things would require mending (lights in the bathrooms!) and at peak times the water pressure was so low that the bedrooms upstairs had no water, but with some practice we all managed to have a shower. The area is great with many sightseeing and activity options, besides the beaches!

Bay field House was amazing. It was welcoming and comfortable for all 15 family members. Each bedroom and bath en suite was clean and cozy. The family room was huge with plenty of seating. A large farmhouse table sat almost all of us.
Loved the little reading nook on the second floor with fabulous views. The grounds were lovely and we had family pics taken on the grounds.
Short walk to the bay, Linanne’s restaurant and a relaxing stroll on the roads. Kinverra is 15 minutes away for market shopping. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us. Highly recommend. The Sawyer Family

What a lovely location!! We had two families with young kids, ages 2-5, for a total of 11 people. The views were amazing, beds were comfortable and the house was very spacious. There were helpful notes all over the house guiding us on how things operated, light switch locations, etc. The back yard was so inviting, we had many meals outside while the kids ran around, climb trees and explore. The cows and horses across the street were entertaining and friendly. We LOVED walking to Linnaine’s; the food was delicious, people were friendly and the kids enjoyed throwing rocks into the ocean and watching the fisherman on the dock. We had many day trips and explored the Flagg Shore and trails. Overall we absolutely loved the house, location and people and are so greatful for staying in such a great place.

I cannot overstate how amazing Bayfield house is. Our multi-generational family was perfectly at home in the generous layout of the house. The annex provided a quiet and separate space for our children to have fun while the adults relaxed in the great room. Every room was appointed nicely, and the en suite bathrooms were wonderful. Everything in the kitchen is labeled well which was helpful while moving about. The outside space is just phenomenal. The yard is perfectly maintained, and I cannot describe the sense of peace that surrounds you while sitting outside. It is perfectly situated- there is a darling gallery/coffee/wine shop at the end of the road, and the Galway Bay beach is just a few yards away. Kinvara, Ballyvaughan, the Cliffs of Moher, and Doolin, with all they have to offer, are all within a 45 minute drive. The owner, Maxx, was incredibly kind and helpful and answered any questions we had very promptly. I cannot overstate what a wonderful holiday we had. Thank you, Bayfield House!

Second stay at Bayfield with extended family ( 8 of us ) and still one of our favorite places in Ireland. Very affordable for a larger group with 5 spacious bedrooms and 4 baths. Well appointed kitchen so cooking was enjoyable and the large farmhouse table there became our central gathering place. Evenings were spent in the comfortable living room with a nice fire and good selection of movies. The grounds are beautiful with a charming raised picnic area overlooking views of the distant hills and glimpses of the sea. An enclosed yard gave our little 3 and 5 year olds the freedom to come and go on their own and a safe area to play. Watching the sun rise from the glassed in sun porch was a treat. A lovely rural area just a very short stroll from the Flaggy Shore and well located for day trips to the many enchantments of the Burren and major sights such as the Cliffs of Moher, golf, Aran Island ferries, Ailwee Bird Sanctuary and Caves, Galway, Ennis, a lovely art gallery-coffee shop and restaurant just steps away and smaller charming villages. We hope to return again to our Irish home away from home.

Ein unvergleichlicher Blick auf die Bucht von Galway und den Burren-Nationalpark war nur eines der Highlights unseres Aufenthalts! Die Räumlichkeiten sind sauber und großzügig geschnitten, einfach ein Juwel. Die Vermieter sind überaus freundlich und zuvorkommend. In dieser atemberaubenden Gegend konnten wir vollkommen entspannen und die Zeit genießen. Absolut empfehlenswert!

The property is surrounded by farms, and just minutes from the water. There is a huge backyard with a bbq, and large seating area. The family room also has lots of seating plus a table that could easily seat 14-15. The bedrooms are all big and ensuite.
Max, the owner is great. He responds within an hour, and reached out several times before and during our stay to make sure all is well.
We needed help a couple of times while staying there and the caretaker, Mike, responded immediately and came over within 10 minutes. Four generations of my family stayed here comfortably for 4 nights.

Our family loved our stay at Bayfield House and would highly recommend this property. The house was excellent for our needs. We especially enjoyed Floggy Shores and the Russell Gallery. My grandsons really loved seeing the neighboring cows. Sitting in the backyard was so relaxing. We had to contact Max a couple of times and he always responded quickly.

We just loved the property so much. Great access to the beach and the Flaggy Shore, and convenient to have Linnane's Restaurant so close by. The Great room was very roomy and had great seating and a long dining table; we used it every night. The kids frolicked in the garden every day. Highly recommended and we would visit again.

This was my third stay at the Bayfield House! My wife and I love it there. New Quay and the Flaggy Shore are so peaceful and relaxing and the house is so comfortable and accommodating. The location is great, with easy access to, among other things, the Burren, the Cliffs of Moher, and Galway. In addition, the owner, Max Kenna is so responsive and helpful!
We plan to return!

We were a mixed group of adults and teens and had the best holiday in New Quay! We thought the house was fantastic. It is really comfortable and equipped to a really high standard. The large garden is lovely with a great outside dining area. With the lovely Flaggy Beach down the road and loads to do in the area...... Brilliant.
