Ennistymon and Phil's place was the "happiest place" of our recent travels in the UK and Ireland! Phil (and Sean) were amazing hosts! The town was out of a story-book truly.....we felt like for a few days we were living in a small Irish town, so quaint and friendly and charming. We made friends with the locals at The Cheese Press (Sinead), Eugene's Pub, Jean Moran who had an Irish Hand Weaves shop for perfect souvenirs I wish I bought more of....Byrne's for dinner looking over the falls was great, and Oh La La crepes across the street from Phil's place was extraordinary! (I am now a crepe person and wasn't before!) We loved the local hardware store with his many cats my kids visited everyday, were able to buy a fishing pole there to use on the river! AND, it was a perfect location to do day-trips exploring County Clare which is why we chose it! The Burren, Cliffs of Moher, Lahinch Beach (our kids favorite!!) and local castles close to visit. I hope and plan to visit again and will stay at Phil's for sure. Highly recommend and will dream of returning!!
