Spent four of the coldest days of winter at Paul's place and thank God the house was so brilliant, because we spent more time in it than anticipated. Problem with Clare is, all the attractions are outside, except maybe the caves! But the house was great, spotlessly clean and warm and very large. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms great with strong hot showers. Fantastic local pub 300 yards away and yes, it really does only open at 9pm! Very interesting and unique ruined church and graveyard nearby. Lovely beaches too. Must come again in better weather!!
