Our stay at Rose Cottage was so wonderful. The location is magical, the pictures don’t do it justice. The cottage is private and spacious and the grounds are breathtakingly beautiful. The bedrooms are large and comfortable and the 3 bathrooms all had great showers. We were able to spread out and relax, which can be challenging when traveling with 2 of our 3 kids (14 year old girl, 12 year old boy). The cottage is a 10/15 minute drive to Doolin, but the drive has such majestic views that the distance just didn’t matter. Rose Cottage was a perfect spot for our day trips to Galway and various spots in County Clare. I’m so happy we chose Rose Cottage...it truly is a magical spot. If you do stay, make note that there is no connectivity whatsoever. We were totally “off the grid” at the cottage and could not pick up a signal until we were a good 5-8 minutes from the house. Ciaran does note “no WiFi” on his page but we assumed we could use our data plans....not the case! In the end no connectivity was a good thing....but it did catch us off guard! Letting email/work and other daily tasks be officially put aside was a welcome and needed change. And we were able to answer work emails in Doolin and at other points along the way! I highly recommend Rose Cottage- it made our vacation truly amazing.
