About this property

Peaceful holiday cottage central to places of interest. Free WiFi and parking

Druid Cottage is a charming 200 year-old renovated farm cottage nestled in the heart of County Clare. Its welcoming atmosphere and the tranquility of its rural setting creates a peaceful retreat after a busy day of sight seeing adventure.

Enjoy scenery of rolling hills with hiking trails, Bunratty and Knappogue castles, the Burren National Park, Lough Derg and part of the Wild Atlantic Way. Limerick and Galway cities are also within easy reach, just under an hour from the cottage.

The cozy interior features a mezzanine bedroom with a rustic ladder and a comfortable double mattress, while a double pull-out sofa in the main room offers an alternative sleeping arrangement.

The kitchen is stocked with essentials like tea, coffee, and condiments. Seasonal organic vegetables, milk, cheese, and yogurt are available from a nearby organic farm. .

Laundry, for your comfort the machines are installed in the nearby out house. The wash is free but the dryer is €7 per load. The cottage is equipped with an outdoor clothes line and indoor drying rack.

Friendly outdoor cats Mizu and Grace roam the property adding to the homely atmosphere.

Note that while the cottage lacks a TV, it offers a truly nature-focused experience, perfect for those looking to disconnect and unwind by the wood burning stove or in the garden.

High-speed fiber optic broadband internet makes it also ideal for remote workers.

The combination of comfort, rustic charm and proximity to the scenic beauty of County Clare, makes it an unforgettable getaway.

About the host

Host profile image
I grew up in Dublin and after my studies and traveI I settled in County Clare to raise my children and now enjoy wonderful grandchildren. I have a passion for adventure and often spend winter away staying as a guest in small selfcatering apartments, so naturally I have a good idea of what makes Druid cottage comfortable for my guests! I love hiking along coastal and hillside paths....As Albert Einstein said, "Look into nature and you will understand everything."

Why they chose this property

East Clare is a beautiful area with rolling hills, lakes, small farms and many creative and artistic people.
The cottage is located between two small villages and not far from the main towns of Ennis, Gort and Scariff. The cities of Limerick and Galway are within an hours drive and every turn of the road shows different scenery especially when you head west to the wild Atlantic where I also love to walk the coastal pathways.

What makes this property unique

The stone cottage is the original pre Irish famine family home lovingly renovated to todays requirments. Its small with a spacious uncluttered feel and the new cosy mezzanine is where families would have all slept years ago.

Perfect for sightseeing, quiet fishing, a three day quiet retreat or equally suitable for longer stays as we have high speed internet for remote workers.
