Company information

Patrick & Cathriona purchased this site in 1996 and building began that September. In January 1997 they returned from England (leaving the Construction and Hotel industry) and by July of that year (after a short break to get married in March) Buttermilk Lodge opened for business. Initially it operated as a Guesthouse but in 2024 they changed to self catering apartments.

Property information

Buttermilk Lodge offers one and two bedroom self catering apartments at the edge of Clifden. It's a short walk to the town centre, a quiet location, with private parking. We breed Connemara Ponies and Sheep and our guests are welcome to visit them out on our farm which is located a few miles away.

Neighbourhood information

We are easy to find being on the N59 Westport Road , there is a short-cut down Canons Lane & Church Hill to the town centre. We are close to town but away from the noise .
