Bayfield House is beautiful. I became engaged here on November 19 on the stone terrace out back. What a dream come true! Ireland and particularly Bayfield House will always have a special place in my heart now. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you very much for sharing your lovely home with us!

Bayfield was a big hit, weather glorious & rotten both, made no difference the home was wonderful, the perfect base. The invisible but ever present Kennas are high in our estimation evermore for creating & sharing such an idyll. We will certainly be back.

What a wonderful visit. Been here a week and feel like we are just beginning to relax and enjoy all this beautiful home had to offer us. With only a week we have spent far too much time running about the Burren. Glad the rain finally forced us in yesterday. Best of Bayfield for me – I love this kitchen! Thank you so much for all the equipment that supports serious cooks such as myself! In short, we are so glad we found you and look forward to coming again!

This was our first trip to Ireland. It was in celebration of our father’s 70th Birthday. We wanted something very special and very family orientated. Bayfield was the perfect spot! The accommodation was perfect for our large adult family. We loved the fact that the late night owls could be in one area of the house without upsetting the earlybirds. Thank you for opening up your wonderful Bayfield to us. This is a trip we shall never forget as it is now a part of our family’s memories.

We love this house – we keep finding rooms. My favourite place is upstairs on the couch by the window. I like to read there – and it’s a great place to hide from the children……if I were so inclined. We’ve explored from Kilkee to Inisheer to Bunratty – our only complaint is that we didn’t have enough time here, enjoying the peace of Bayfield House.
Mrs C from Connecticut, USA

Our first trip to Ireland and we couldn’t have found a better place to stay. Bayfield House felt like home and we all felt unbelievable sadness when leaving. We have definitely decided that we need to stay longer than 1 week!! Thank you to the Kenna family for sharing your home – until next time….

The island was Ireland, the county was Clare
The coast was the west coast, craggy and bare,
They call it “The Burren” and it felt in a way
Much like the scenery of Georgian Bay.
We bought sweater, followed signposts, ate garlic in brine
Drank Smithwicks, toured caves, bathed in sunshine.
Woke to crows & cows, saw sheep in far reaches
Awed at cliffs & clouds, dug cockles on beaches.
The roads, the rocks, the walks and the fences,
The fiddlers fiddling – the punts and the pences.
The tides, the towns, the freckly faces,
Will make me think of all these fine places.
The peace of the country – How people behave,
They never pass by you without a small wave.
The friends and the faces, the Flaggy Shore,
I am certainly certain we’ll come back here once more.

Mr A, Toronto, Canada
