Moy House

Boutique hotel overlooking the sparkling waters of Lahinch Bay

Moy House is a former private home from the 18th-century that has been turned into a beautiful boutique hotel overlooking Lahinch Bay. Surrounded by ancient woodland and the sparkling waters of the Atlantic, this is an idyllic spot from which to appreciate the beauty of Ireland’s West Coast.

The hotel is a mix of classic and contemporary with the air of an elegant country house. Rooms are traditionally decorated and have a real warmth to them, and those that face the ocean offer the most glorious views to wake up to.

Food and drink are among the highlights of a stay at Moy House. The hotel has its own farm, home to pigs, hens, sheep and Dexter cows as well as a kitchen garden that provides vegetables, fruit and herbs for the restaurant. There is a six-course tasting menu, as well as an à la carte, and the dishes are finalised each morning depending on what’s ready in the garden.
