This is a lovely place perfect for one night. Breakfast continental but plenty of food. The host is a lovely lady and very helpful. Bed very comfortable. There are a couple of pubs walking distance. Be aware that there is no food available in town mon to Thursday. There is a restaurant about 5 min drive away west. Food there was great.

The place has wooden floors so you can hear others. A number of persons turned up late at night and thought it was a good idea to stand in the hall and have a conversation. Not the fault of the host. Once they had gone to there rooms we had a wonderful sleep.

Mauve, Gerry, and their dog Oscar were fantastic hosts and made our stay memorable and comfortable. Check in was easy, the rooms clean, spacious, and had all the amenities anyone would require. The breakfast was delicious with fresh breads, yogurts, oatmeal/granola, and tea/coffee. Staying at the Doonard Manor and being hosted by such lovely people was a highlight of our honeymoon. We would definitely book again and recommend these lodgings to anyone.

Nothing. I would recommend these accommodations to anyone.

The service, room, breakfast were excellent as well as the hosts. I couldn't recommend this BnB more.

The market is still way too pricey, I understand why family run businesses have to stay inline with the market, but with a cost of living crisis continuing and wages and take home pay effectively going down, it is very costly for one night. That is not a reflection on this BnB,but a reflection of how distorted market prices are.

We received a very warm welcome from Maeve and Gerry. They have a beautiful home and we really enjoyed our stay. We had a lovely room and a delicious continental breakfast each morning. The pubs in the village didn’t serve food the first night, so we drove to another hotel in the next village for dinner. Next night was a short walk into town to a local pub for a very nice meal. We thoroughly recommend a stay at Doonard Manor.

Nothing.

Maeve and her family were excellent. As a solo traveller they made me feel welcome and it felt like a home from home. The location is very peaceful. I got a bus from Galway city and then walked from the bus stop in Craughwell.

The location is rural and if you haven't got a car or can't drive it can be lonely in the evenings. There isn't much if anything to do for solo travellers in Craughwell itself in the evenings

We absolutely loved staying here. Maeve and Gerard made us feel at home with their warm and inviting hospitality. They gave us great recommendations about what to do while in Galway which made some of the best memories we had while we were in town. The room was spacious and comfortable and breakfast was delicious every morning. Great value for money!

Everything was great!

Maeve is such a great guest, you will definitely feel at home in her house. She prepared breakfast for us every day with fresh ingredients and gave us tips on a few places to discover around the area. She was also quite good at forecasting the imposible Irish weather! 😁 The house is very quiet and clean, we got fresh towels every day. It is also well located, 20 min away from Galway’s city centre, which also means less noise, traffic, etc. We really enjoy our stay in this place and would definitely recommend it.

Doonard Manor was clean and private. The hostess was very sweet. She provided us with hot water for tea and included biscuits. When we told her that we were leaving before breakfast the next morning, she got up early and fixed us toast and tea/coffee. She even had a hairdryer in the room which was a huge plus; not every place we stayed had one. She made us feel like we were staying with family.

Beds are super comfortable, breakfast was very nice and much of , silent and hosts were very kind.

Bathroom of our room was old and would have been better to have it renovated based on the price we paid - the room booked was said to be 28mq while it was smaller.. but it was cosy and confortable the same

Host Maeve was friendly and helpful. The experience was very good with the atmosphere genial and welcoming. The breakfast was very good, lots of fruit, cold meats and cheese, fresh brown bread/toast and tea - exactly what I needed to start my day off. There was lots of room to park my vehicle and the entry to the location was easy to traverse. All in all, recommended

A bit out of the city but excellent for tours etc.
