Peaceful paradise for family with two young teens.
Bravo!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This cottage was an absolutely wonderful stop on our trip to Ireland, and no one wanted to leave after two nights! The cottage is located on a hill just outside the bustle of Doolin tourism and has a vibe of Swedish modern simplicity with stunning views and everything you need to chill out. Helen was lovely and unobtrusive and it was obvious that she takes great pride in the cottage and the experience she’s creating for her guests — left us snacks and goodies which made it so easy to unpack from the car and settle in right away.
Our young teen children loved the serenity of it— the farm and sea views and the peaceful setting helped all of us to reset after traveling from busy Dublin. The two twin beds were comfy and the shared room wasn’t an issue for them. The primary bedroom is comfy and large with an incredible view. I am a painter and there was no need to go anywhere for inspiration- it was right in front of me as I sat at the table. The stars were incredible at night and we all slept so soundly.
With a full day ahead we took the drive down into Doolin and did a fantastic cliff trail hike with Ollie’s Tours (booked on ABNB experiences) followed by a delicious fish and chips dinner at Russell’s Fish shop. A boat ride to the islands will be our focus next time as we heard it’s not to be missed. Thank you to Helen and her family for creating such a pleasant stay. Kitchen and bathroom also has everything you would need to stay there.
We recommend this cottage to those looking for a quiet base far out of the pub scene — it’s a perfect spot from which to explore the County Clare coast or just be in quiet retreat.
