A naturalist travel experience — Aran Islands, Ireland

The iconic building that housed Inis Meáin Restaurant & Suites, is now called the Stone House. It is joined by the Boat House nearby which has been carefully renovated to the same high standard of design and comfort. From 2023, both Houses now offer unique accommodation for groups - the Stone House can sleep a group of up to 8 guests and the Boat House a group of up to 4 guests - offering individual privacy within a stunning living space for loved ones to reconnect. →

Our Island Stay Houses form part of our 70 acre Farm Estate of Burren landscape on Inis Meáin. It is a working Farm which includes cattle, native Irish bees, hens, vegetables, and biodiversity preservation. The Farm contains many separate parcels of land stretching along a strip of 5km from the north to the south coast, including all of the various terrains of the island along the way. Our in-depth Ecology Study of the Farm provides guests with a guide to this rich landscape, renowned for its Burren Biodiversity and Dry-Stone Walls. →

Inis Meáin offers the best of Ireland in one easily explored island — unparalleled natural beauty, culture, and history within a living and vibrant community. And as the least developed of the three Aran Islands, Inis Meáin can be explored in peace. The island is just 5km by 3km and the Houses are located in the centre, within walking distance of everywhere. Inis Meáin Island Stays include an extensive Exploration Kit in each House, so that guests can explore in comfort island treks, sea swims, cycles, yoga, foraging and picnics throughout our farm estate and the unique island landscape. →

A large part of Inis Meáin's allure is its tranquillity with a community of just 180 islanders and few visitors. Consequently dining options on the island are very limited with no venues open at times. To make sure all of our guests can dine to their preferences in comfort, Inis Meáin Island Stays are offered on a self-catering basis and the Houses are kitted out with high-spec kitchens and comfortable dining areas. In addition, a delicious daily-changing, set Island Dinner, curated from our former Restaurant's repertoire, home-baked Brown Bread, nourishing Lunch Soup and a special Wine Collection are also available for delivery to the Houses. →
