My husband and I have been travelling around Ireland and staying in B & B's along the way. My husband is Coeliac and requires a gluten free diet which can be tricky to manage. When we arrived at Karaun House we were overwhelmed at the genuine warm welcome extended to us by Teresa. She had cooked gluten free treats for... More

Teresa was friendly and helpful. It was such a relief to have someone who understands what having celiacs means, and who can provide a safe and delicious breakfast. The rooms were spotless, and comfortable. The sign marking the turn off the main road was easy to spot, as was the house sign. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

About 1 1/2 years passed by since my boyfriend and I have visited Karaun House but unfortunately I did not manage it to write a review so far. But anyways, our stay was almost perfect!!! I'm suffering from Celiac Disease and on top of that I am allergic to Cow milk and eggs as well (next so some other things)... More

Our 1st stay was so perfect we made sure we visited again with Teresa and Denny O'Dea on our way back to Shannon Airport !! My daughter and I arrived about 9PM (pretty late) our first night and were greeted as graciously as ever by Denny. Teresa showed us to our room which was comfy and warm. While resting and... More

What a wonderful experience! Teresa and Denny couldn't have been better hosts. We stayed for two nights at the end of out 17 day Ireland excursion. We stayed the extra night not only because it was so comfortable but also because it was only an hour away from Shannon Airport! The referrrals for restaurants were spot on and it was... More

We stayed one night there, enjoyed the big room, beds were comfortable. Breakfast was wonderful. Theresa is a very pleasant woman, she recommeded places for us to go and her husband was even nice enough to drive us into town, don't find that everywhere. I would recommend this place and I'm sure if we are ever near Clarinbridge again this... More

Found a gem of a Gluten-Free B&B! During a recent month-long visit to the West of Ireland, we happened on Karaun House in Clarinbridge. As two coeliacs, always seeking a 'safe' GF accommodation, we had the very good fortune to book in with Teresa O'Dea (she herself is coeliac) in her inviting, spotless, comfortable home. Wound up staying four nights...... More

I stayed 1 night with Theresa and really enjoyed my time at the Karaun house. It was my first experience traveling solo in Ireland, and Theresa is so helpful and easy going. I highly recommend this B&B, with it's proximity to one of the famous seafood restaurants - Morans - and of course, Galway. Theresa is a warm, generous person... More

We spent 4 nights with Teresa and felt we were cared for by a treasured friend. She truly cared that our holiday was pleasant and recommended local places to eat, shop, visit, and even get a flat tire fixed. The heating blanket was a nice touch for our comfortable beds. If I return to Ireland, this will defintely be my... More
