Meet the B&B’s – Glasha Meadows
There are few places in Ireland where you will receive the hospitality that you do in Doolin. Our B&B members have been welcoming visitors to Doolin for a long time ,some of them are in their 3rd generation of running a B&B business. And they have some great stories to tell.
As well as gaining invaluable local knowledge when you stay at a B&B in Doolin, you are also guaranteed superb food, luxurious rooms, and an Irish welcome like no other.
In the first of our series of Meet the B&B’s, we meet Marian, Martin and daughter Sandra from Glasha Meadows B&B. At Glasha Meadows, you are treated like family. Your hosts can be often found in the dining room, regaling guests with stories of the local area and sharing their love for this special place.
How long have you been running this B&B, and what do you love most about it?
We’ve cherished our 33 years at Glasha Meadows B&B. What we love most is the joy of creating unforgettable memories for our guests.
Can you share a memorable experience with a guest that encapsulates the essence of Doolin hospitality?
One evening, we had a guest who joined a local music session at a nearby pub. They felt like a part of our community, and that’s what Doolin hospitality is all about.
What's your favorite local dish or beverage that guests must try while they're here?
You can’t miss the Irish Beef stew at our local pubs that goes down well with a pint of Guinness. It’s a true taste of Doolin’s heart and soul, comfort and hospitality.
