Excellent place to stay when exploring West Clare. Carmel is a lovely host, friendly, full of advice and pulls a great pint in the bar. Fresh, crisp clean sheets every day, best shower in the west, in a cozy environment and to top it all off a killer breakfast. Loosen your belt or put on your stretchy trousers for this one. Will be back.

Unfortunately I was disappointed by my stay here I only needed a bed and breakfast for one night- paid full rate only to find in the morning that it was a bed only and no breakfast- they must have stopped doing breakfast- the room was ok although WiFi didn’t work and a stain on the sheet I needed to eat in the morning and there was nowhere else available at that time in the town - so not happy!

Comfortable beds, great shower, good location. Carol was very accommodating and got up on the Bank Holiday Monday (October 28) to serve us breakfast at 7:00am. We booked in the evening before and told her that we had to leave early in the morning to make the tide to sail back to Fenit. Carol had a great breakfast and a pot of coffee ready before 7:00 and to top it all off she gave us coffee to go.

Buggles is a lovely quaint place to stay. Breakfast was excellent. It is cheap and clean. It is a pity the same can't be said for the town of Kilrush. It has great potential but sadly not used and some very dirty dilapidated shops and buildings. Definitely will not be back

I regarded Carmel as extremely kind in organising automatically my day in Scattery Island. I also appreciated your help, Carmel, in finding the B&B near Carrigaholt. I arrived Kilrush soaked and exhausted and left warm, refreshed and joyful. Thank you :)

Although this is above a bar it is actually separate. You have to collect your key from the bar when you first check in , but after that you can use the separate entrance. Lovely room, very clean, bathroom a bit tight but fine. Very quiet, but a great location.

Lovely B&B in the center of the small town of Kilrush. 3 adults traveling, we stayed in one room that was fitted with 3 twin beds and 1 double bed. Coffee and tea provided in room, wonderfully clean, comfortable beds, crisp linens, private bathroom. Our hostess Carmel was so kind and welcoming. Breakfast was made to order at a time of our choosing and served in the beautiful dining room. We stayed one night and then continued our back road country tour of west Ireland. Just down the road, near the port, is a Safeway grocery store where we could stock up on fruits and snacks for our road trip. Highly recommend Buggles B&B!

This was my first time staying at Buggles and I will certainly be back. This is an old house on the square in the heart of Kilrush. It has been tastefully modernised but retains its character and charm. Unlike many older properties, the shower was a good size and the water pressure was great. The bed was also very comfortable. Carmel, the owner, is a great host. I look forward to my next stay.

This was a delightful B & B. My room was very well fitted out, tea and coffee provided, it was quiet, extremely comfortable and warm, even in December, and the charming hostess, Carmel, presented me with a wonderful breakfast, meeting my dietary requirements exactly. Many thanks! The public bar has quaint old style decor and a lovely atmosphere.
