The Core Lodge - The perfect getaway in the heart of the Burren.

The Core Lodge is situated in the beautiful coastal village of Ballyvaughan, in the heart of the Burren. Surrounded by limestone mountains on one side, and the sea on the other, Bishops Quarter sandy beach and our family farm are only 1km away. The village has a supermarket, convenience, store, restaurants, pubs, tea room, coffee shops, walking trails, and one of the oldest caves in Ireland, the Aillwee Cave. Family farm tours are available upon request.
There is a rental property attached to the side of The Core Lodge (“The Core House”) which is a four bedroom house and is available to book on VRBO also.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and an ironing board.
