You close your eyes and feel the scorching sun washing over you and the sounds of not so distant waves are drumming out a relaxing beat against the shore. That was my welcome to the Bervie guesthouse on Achill. The place itself is beautiful with years and years of love infused into it. The rooms are bright, airy, clean and comfortable and the hosts are lovely people. They do an awesome deal for a weekend B and B with one night's dinner for around 160 Euro. This is all great but I haven't even started talking about the food yet. The breakfast was out of this world. Proper full Irish and every ingredient tasted fresh and delicious. There was a great buffet option as well with cereals and fruit etc as well as some lighter options like poached eggs and Salmon. Then we had the dinner. Wow. Best food I have tasted in an age. I had confit duck, lamb sausage and haricot beans for starter. Steak, amazingly done, with mushrooms infused with wine and veg and mash and roast spuds. Followed by a passionfruit crème brulee. I don't think I can even describe how good this food was but you can see the pics for a rough idea! The whole guest house is superb, right on the beach in one of the most spectacular spots in Ireland. I will be back, lots and lots. I cannot recommend this place enough! I'd give it 10 Stars if I could!

We stayed at the Bervie on our honeymoon in July 2013. We could not have asked for a better B&B, a…read morebetter location, or a better hostess. It had been unseasonably hot for Ireland so I had not packed adequately and purchased some shorts and t-shirts for the 85 degree weather. By the time we arrived in Keel I had worn all the clothes I purchased so we asked Elizabeth if there was a laundry nearby to wash them. She would not think of it, she took the clothes and washed them for us. I'm extremely particular about my laundry, I only air dry my clothes and Elizabeth was so accommodating to hang them outside to dry. The room was perfect and only finished second to the amazing views from our window. The beds were as comfortable as home, the beach is only 200 meters outside your door, and Elizabeth even got us a bottle of wine to enjoy as we watched the night fade over the ocean. We could not have asked for a more perfect experience.

Said rooms have a very modern feel which i found a nice esacpe from the usual rustic offers these kind of places normally have, and all have flat panel televisions for when the weather is just too much. The B+B is ran by a young family that have strong roots in Ireland where their parents were born and her mother was born near where the B+B is located. The hosts themselves were born in Great Britain, and moved to Ireland to start this B+B. I myself found this fascinating

John is very nice, gave us great advice on meals, pubs, drives, etc. He called ahead to the Clare Island ferry to have them hold for us, as we would be late due to car troubles, and the pilot DID!

The themed…read moreroom was impeccably appointed with a very comfortable bed, and the view from our room was beyond stunning. Every breakfast we had was ample and delicious. Additionally, we had dinner one evening at Ferndale that was expertly prepared and served by the proprietors, Jon and Alex. It was a lovely alternative to going into town, and the fresh halibut, scallops and prawns that Jon cooked for us was one of the best meals we had ever had in Ireland, not to mention the fabulous chocolate mousse and deconstructed Bailey's Irish Cream cheesecake he made us for dessert! Last, but certainly not least, Jon and Alex were absolutely the best hosts! They managed to make us feel like family, yet pampered guests at the same time-No easy feat! Their attention to detail in terms of our comfort, and their wit and warmth were a winning combination. We will most definitely be returning!
