In the West of Ireland, at the heart of the Connemara area, Bun-Invhir B & B enjoys an ideal location and is strategically situated for visiting this beautiful and varied region. On the shores of Kilkieran Bay just off the coastal road R 340 joining Screeb to Carna, the B & B is about 60 kms (40 miles) from Galway and 35 kms (23 miles) from Clifden (see: How to find us).

   The cottage was originally built two hundred years ago, then extended over the generations. Acquired years ago as a holiday house by its owners, it is now their permanent home and has been extensively renovated and modernised.

   Acting on friendly advice, we decided in July 2002 to open the house to guests in the summer. The experience was extremely rewarding. Our guests were delighted with the setting and walked down to the pier to watch the seals, we cooked french food and irish bread, we answered questions and pored over maps, advised outings, picnic spots and restaurants and anxiously watched the forecast, and ultimately made lasting friendships.
