This was our first time using air b&b and I was a little bit nervous.... I needn't be. Ronan's house was wonderful, the photos just don't do it justice.
We went to Lahinch to surf, and you cannot get closer to the beach without getting wet. You can grab your boards and access the Atlantic by the stairs that are right by the house, it will take, at most, 30 seconds to get into the waves.
There are loads of holiday homes that you can get in Lahinch, but we wanted something with a bit more charm and Ronan's house has it in buckets. Exposed stone walls and a picture window to die for, it's a place that you can really relax in.
As well as easy access to the beach, the house is centrally located to pubs and restaurants. It would be quite easy to never have to use your car for the duration of your stay. If you fancy going for a drive, the cliffs of moher are a 10 minute drive and the Burren is only about a half an hour away.
We had arranged to meet Ronan's key holder, Bill, at 8pm, but due to traffic delays were about an hour and half late. This was no problem for Bill, and he could not have been more accommodating and helpful.
A storm hit during our stay and Bill checked in on us several times to make sure we were ok, which we were.
I would wholeheartedly recommend staying at Ronan's house, we look forward to returning again soon!
