Phil met us at the cottage and showed us round, talking about the recent work done, and about the vicinity. He offered a lot of tips about where to go, what to see and so on. This was useful, even if we didn't remember all of it!

The cottage is as remote as you could wish for, high on the hillside above Doolin, but it's only a few minutes drive away from the village, and Eenistymon is not much further if you need supplies.

There is a lot to see and do around Doolin, all easily reached from the cottage, and we could have spent longer there - but our itinerary didn't allow it.

The cottage is an interesting, characterful building, cosy, especially if you light a fire in the stove, which I recommend.
