Sleeps 12, WIFI, Castle & Mountain View

My great grandfather Padraig Vaughan built the original Vaughan cottage which remains to this day in our family. It enjoys wonderful vistas of The Burren landscape and Newtown Castle. Situated on the N67 road 2min drive from the village Ballyvaughan. The Vaughans were the first to introduce tourism to Ballyvaughan in the 1940's when Mr Rocks stayed here and

built the new church altar. 5min walk to BURREN ART COLLEGE GALLERY & CAFE. 5min drive to beach

Mr Rocks' marble crafted altar is present in the Ballyvaughan church till this day. The Vaughan cottage was just a fraction of its current size when he stayed there and the toilet was outside, but he enjoyed his stay with the Vaughans so much so that he went back to Dublin to tell his family and friends that they should all come to visit. As a result, the Rocks, the Walshes and the McConnells became regular guests at Vaughan cottage and so started the growth of tourism in the village. My father Padraig, who was born and bred in the cottage, same as his mother before him, has very happy memories of an old gramophone playing on a stone wall outside as people danced Irish sets, sang and played music during his childhood - the original talent showcases before television took over. Passers by were welcome to call in and nobody left the house hungry. Most recently Richard Hearns, a renowned Irish painter associated with the adjacent Burren college of Art, and his wife Boo called the house their home. Richard found great inspiration in the cottage which also doubled as his place of work and an art studio for a number of years. We particularly cherish his lovely still-life paintings of items that can still be seen in the cottage, such as a red sailing boat and a clay milk jug. Among others, Tim Dolan, the Arch Bishop of New York also recently paid our cottage a visit. This is the first time we are opening the doors of the modern day Vaughan Cottage to holiday guests and we look forward to welcoming you to this special place.
