We had a group of 8 stay in John's place and we were really happy with our stay! The house has plenty of space, beds and bathrooms for everyone. It was clean and the facilities were great. The setup in the kitchen is fantastic if you fancy cooking for a big group. Our stay was in summer but I imagine the fireplace in the living room would be very cosy in the colder evenings.
Located right beside the Ailwee caves and just 2km from Ballyvaughan, the house is a great base for checking out many of the popular destinations in Clare. The Cliffs of Moher and the village of Doolin, which is where you can catch the ferry over to the Aran Islands are only a 25 minute drive from the house. The coast road from Ballyvaughan to Fanore beach is a gorgeous stretch of road. Clahane is a local swimming spot just outside Lahinch which is well worth checking out.
After a long day of exploring the Aran Islands, or swimming at Lahinch, John's house was a welcome retreat to chill and recharge during the holiday. Thanks John!
