The Aran Islands can be seen on the ocean horizon to the north. The beach (the White Strand) and cliff walks are minutes from the door. The Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, and Doolin (where ferries run to the Aran Islands) are within an hour's drive. There are of course many local pubs and good restaurants. Opened July 2002, The Doonbeg Golf Club, designed by the legendary two-time British Open champion Greg Norman. 'A true Links site - soaring, grass-covered dunes rising nearly one hundred feet tall above the white-capped Atlantic'. A private club with public play.
Things to See and Do: See the unique natural attractions of Ireland's South western Region, such as The Burren, The Cliffs of Moher, and the Aran Islands. Explore the wild Clare coast on Loop Head.

Thank you so much for your review, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay.
Very enjoyable stay for 5 nights in a really really nice traditional Irish cottage. Location was rural and the cottage had excellent views. The ideal get away if you want a nice quiet chill out. Open Irish turf fire in the cottage was a lovely feature.
A little place in paradise at the End of the world
It is a wonderful, silent place surrounded only by nature with an overwhelming view over the ocean and the coast.
If you love the nature, the ocean, no people, no other input and you need a place far away, then it is the right place for relaxing!
We‘ re coming back for sure!

Low cost
This property needs major renovations to be suitable for guests . We spent one night there because it was to late to seek other lodging . The host refunded half of our payment and we moved on the next morning.
Cossy cottage close to the shore. Impressive views of the Atlantic ocean from the main room. The area is out of the beaten path although the connections are difficult. Closest attractions Head Loop (25 m) and Cliffs of Moher (45 m). The fireplace with the crane and pot hanger takes you back to 1800s. The wc sometimes clogs and takes you back to the 1970s, I would renew this part :-)
This cottage is amazing. Though very outdated for the average tourist, the old world charm, location, peace, and quiet were exactly what we needed. The heating system went a little on us two days into our stay but we totally didn’t care. We bought some extra firewood, some extra wine, and moved all the blankets into the living room and slept in front of the fire the next two nights. It was wonderful. The town is adorable. So friendly. Kilkee was GREAT!
If you want a large kitchen and large tv with all the cable channels, new furniture and amenities, this isn’t for you.
If you want experience a lovely part of all this Island has to offer and reconnect….. this is your place.
Thank you Etain, we had a lovely adventure and will be back

This home was at the top of my bucket list. It was owned by my great grandfather until 1914. My grandfather left this home in 1913 to come to America. It is one of a few homes in the village that dates back more than 300 years old. The area is beautiful and unspoiled. A small farming community that remains today. We watched the farmer behind us put his cows out everyday. The views of the Atlantic are awesome. Sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous. You can see the Cliffs of Moher from the front window on a clear day. Instructions and descriptions are accurate. Owner gives information about the area and there are the towns of Kilrush and Kilkee nearby to explore. The house is spacious and comfortable and has that cottage feel. We will return to one day to experience life as it was over a 100 years ago.
Abgelegenes Cottage an herrlicher Lage mit riesiger Wiese, zu Fuß 5 Minuten zum Atlantik (wilde Brandung, kein Badestrand). Auto dringend erforderlich.Das Haus hat drei Schlafzimmer (für 5-6 Personen), eines davon mit traumhaftem Blick auf die Bucht! Die Betten fanden wir sehr bequem. Das Wohnzimmer ist gemütlich, alle Räume geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die kleine Küche ist sehr schlicht ausgestattet. Hier und im Bad gibt es einen Punkt Abzug. Ansonsten perfekt für vier Personen, bei mehr wird es dann schon eng. Sehr gutes W-LAN.
Wir waren für eine Woche in der Cottage und möchten eine faire Bewertung vornehmen. Das beste als erstes: Die Lage und Aussicht. Du wohnst in Alleinlage mit direktem Meerblick. Der nächste Ort ist ungefähr 10 Minuten mir dem Auto entfernt. Hier bekommt mal alles wichtige. Ohne Auto ist man aber etwas hilflos. Die Eigentümerin ist immer erreichbar und sehr freundlich. Bei Problemen versucht sie zu helfen. Wie man auf den Bildern sehen kann, ist das Cottage in die Jahre gekommen und bietet nur wenig Komfort. Aber das weiß man, wenn man die Cottage bucht. Allerdings war das Cottage bei unserem Besuch nicht sauber. Bei unserer Ankunft haben wir viele Spinnweben und Spinnen vorgefunden. Auch das Geschirr musste gereinigt werden. Es ist nicht so, dass die Cottage überhaupt nicht gereinigt war, aber es war nicht so sauber, wie wir es erwartet haben. Das Cottage benötigt nach unser Ansicht eine Grundreinigung. Die Besitzerin hat uns eine zusätzliche Reinigung angeboten. Aber mit all unseren Gepäck sahen wir das als nicht möglich an. Entsprechend fällt unser Fazit leider nicht gut aus und wir würden das Cottage nicht noch einmal buchen.
Vi hade fyra fantastiska dagar med kossor betande utanför fönstret. Stugan var jättefin och det ensamma läget passade oss perfekt. Nära till Dingle-halvön och Cliffs of Moher blev perfekta dagsutflykter.
The cottage was just what we expected and hoped for. It was quaint and what I always envisioned that a Irish cottage was. It was surrounded by fields of green and the blue ocean was the backdrop. So beautiful!! Better than the pictures.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour grâce à l'emplacement exceptionnel de la maison. Vivement conseillé pour les amoureux de la nature. Vue superbe de la grande chambre. Petit bémol concernant le mobilier qui mériterait un rafraîchissement.
The property was amazing, the drive to the cottage was a little scary but well worth the drive. The owner stopped and welcomed us and stopped before we left, she's so sweet and welcoming!
Everything was as listed and made for a very enjoyable stay. We ate in Doonbeg and saw many sites. Would love to come back ❤️
Fantastic views and lovely area, outside table and chairs missing.

Disappointing
Property looks like something out of the seventies, tv the size of a postage stamp, kitchen for a self catering accommodation a complete joke , completely inadequate for the catering needs, the bins were locked, no keys washing machine broken , owner appeared reluctant to replace but did, this property is managed remotely by someone who appears to reside in the uk , so obvious problems Re communication, left the place in a clean condition, consistent with many other lets that I have used , never a problem, except here I was issued with a demand for 200 e cleaning fee which I refused to pay , so I was told I would get a bad review!!! The demand for additional monies keft a sour note because despite this we had a good time in west Clare
Traditional Irish Cottayge in the country. Just a great view...on most days you can seen the Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher in the distance....inspiring. Nearby Doonbeg is a beautiful village with some great Pubs and wonderful people. Highly recommended!

Missing some minor but important details
Size, location (amazing sea views) and distribution are good. Small details could improve the quality of the stay a lot. For us it is important that bathroom area has minimum comfortable conditions, and this had not (shower, WC tap not locked, etc.)
Kitcken is also important, and having separate hot and cold water taps makes it more difficult to wash dishes.
