Such a peaceful, beautiful bed and breakfast with just a short drive to the charming center of Doolin, The Cliffs of Moher and the ferry to Aran Islands. The rooms are very pretty and tastefully decorated with everything you need! You will be so happy with the stunning views of the Cliffs in the distance and beautiful pastures surrounding you. Our host was so lovely and welcoming and the breakfasts she served were delicious and so filling, we were too full for lunch! She had wonderful recommendations and advice for us that enhanced our trip so much and provided us with a great experience! We were so pleased and would highly recommend O’Leary’s Lodge and definitely plan to return again! This was our second visit. The first time was in 2018 and we were just as pleased on this return visit!! Thank you Aoife for going above and beyond for us, again!…

Spent 3 nights in this delightful B&B. Gorgeous accommodation with stunning views, facilities and delicious breakfast (esp pancakes). Location is away from the Doolin hustle & bustle . Owners Aoife & Greg provided amazing hospitality & were extremely helpful. Must walk the Cliffs of Mohar, visit the Aran islands and Doolin Cave. The only bad thing was having to leave …..

Wonderful…We could not have been happier! We unfortunately didn’t stay long but comfy bed, hot shower after a long day of travel and the owner Aoife, amazing! She gave us good info for the Doolin Ferry, logistics and set us up for a great day; thank you!! We hope we can return to the area again sometime! Be well.

All I can say is “absolutely fabulous”. The owners are fantastic and will provide you with the info you need to see the district and places to eat. It is only a 3 minute drive from pubs and restaurants. This accommodation is a beautiful and an excellent choice. Doolin is a great place to spend a few days and visit the cliffs of Moher.

Aiofe was amazing. Her place is beautiful and clean. Breakfast was always amazing and she went above and beyond for us. Doolin is a sweet little village near the spectacular Cliffs of Moher. Hope to go back soon and will definitely stay at Olearys.

Everything about the location and the room was outstanding. Aoifa was a most delightful host and provided a lovely breakfast. A one night stay was not enough time - it will longer next time for sure.

Our trip lasted 21 days. We spent a week in Ireland, went on to other parts of Europe and then spent several more days in Ireland. Of all the places we stayed this was MY FAVORITE. We went with two other couples; one couple booked all the rooms. The lodge is a separate building, with three spacious rooms. Some rooms could accommodate a family. The rooms were spotless, bathrooms were nice. Fresh decanted water was provided in the room, so you could prepare a hot tea. There were great choices for breakfast that were reasonable. I would definitely go with the breakfasts. Our hostess was a wonderful, charming young wife/mother. She was very helpful with our itinerary for the days we were there, giving us tips on the routes we could take. There were a lot of cool places to check out in the area. The town was a little walking distance away, perhaps 15-20 minutes. Our hostess dropped us off near a pub downtown for dinner and we stayed a little later hoping to catch some local music playing at the pub. Our hostess agreed to pick us up at 10pm, which was perfect. There are taxis that can pick you up if needed. Obviously, I would stay here every time I was in the area. Book ahead of time. Our hostess explained she had regular guests that would return annually. …

Our stay at O'Learys was perfect. You could not ask for nicer people. Thank you for the delicious breakfast and all the travel tips. Can't wait to go back. Aoife and Greg are exceptional hosts. Can't thank you enough.

Not far from the Cliffs of Moher and about 2 minutes from Doolin Cave, so the perfect location. Great room, excellent shower and superb breakfast! Aoife couldn't have been more welcoming. Definitely go there if you are in that location, you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful B&B, quiet location with incredible views of the Cliffs of Moher, a castle and cows! Our spacious room was comfortable, immaculate and beautifully equipped with everything you might need. We had a delicious and plentiful breakfast with a wide variety of hot and cold choices, including homemade breads! Aoife, our host, was amazing! She is so friendly and knowledgeable. Her recommendations were spot on and she even mapped out the best routes for us follow. This was the best guesthouse we stayed in during our Ireland trip and I highly recommend it!
