Had a wonderful stay at the Courtyard. The rooms & sitting area were very comfortable. Joe made a delicious Irish breakfast with lots of options in a pretty breakfast area. Bunratty is a short walk and PJ Clarke’s is right next door. Lucky to have found this B&B & will recommend to family & friends!
