Dun Ri Guest House serves both full Irish and lighter breakfast options. All are freshly prepared with locally sourced produce, homemade breads and preserves.

Our rooms were well appointed and clean and the beds were comfortable. Michael, our host, was friendly and helpful. There was an adorable little dog playing with it’s soft toy which gave a homely atmosphere to the place.

Ben View Guesthouse is located in Clifden. Featuring a shower, private bathroom also comes with a bath or shower and a hairdryer. Extras include bed linen and ironing facilities.

The family owned bed and breakfast is 3 km from Alcock & Brown Memorial and 13 km from Connemara National Park. The harbour is a 5-minute walk away.

Ben View wins the contest for best B&B during our week-long Ireland trip hands down. Spotless rooms, a vast breakfast with which you can easily skip lunch and (well almost) dinner. Super friendly hosts (always remembering your name, which is a small yet nice extra) making you feel right at home. The best bed, though not knowing what I'd do with so many pillows! Old fashioned B&B in the very best sense of the word, ideally centrally located too. What more can you wish for?

We liked absolutely everything about this wonderful guest house. Room was spacious, clean, equipped with bath products and area information……and the bed was very comfortable. It’s a five minute walk into town, so once you park your car for the evening, there’s no need to move it again. Breakfast is a variety of cold and hot with fantastic homemade breads to boot. Warm and welcoming hosts……what more could you ask for.
