Experience the west of Ireland at Churchfield B&B - Highlights

Doolin is considered by many to be the home of traditional Irish music and
with the famous pubs, McDermott's and McGann's just 2 minutes walk away
and O'Connors a mere 10 minutes walk, you could not be closer to the action.
Traditional Irish music can be heard nightly throughout the summer and at weekends during the winter in all the pubs. The atmosphere is unique and before long, I know you will be tapping your feet and clapping your hands
as the music takes over.

Churchfield B&B was established in 1981 and newly renovated in 2003 with regular re-decorating & upgrading our B&B is in fantastic condition.

All bedrooms are En-suite & have Tea and Coffee facilities, TV and Hairdryer. All our rooms are non-smoking.

Baby sitting may be arranged.
