Atlantic View Cottages

In the rural heart of The Burren, with views out towards the Cliffs of Moher, you’ll find this well-frequented restaurant with a clean, modern interior. The menu offers an appealing choice of dishes crafted using top-notch produce, which is treated with care and skill by the kitchen team. A few ambitious, adventurous flavour combinations might appear too, like mango with salmon. The friendly service and simply furnished bedrooms complete a rather charming picture.

Now being run by the third generation of the Vaughan family, this characterful pub has become something of an institution in the coastal village of Liscannor. Its Atlantic-adjacent location, impressive fish tank and walls filled with nautical memorabilia all give clues as to the focus of the menu, where locally sourced seafood underpins the cooking. The dinner dishes are more elaborate than at lunchtime, but quality produce and classically based combinations run throughout, ensuring a satisfying experience. Bright, stylish bedrooms are hung with photos of local sights.
