We are not long home from a stay in the Blue Cottage. Beautiful cottage and beautiful part of Ireland. If you are looking to leave the city life behind for a few days then the Blue Cottage is ideal, its so quiet and on a clear night you can sit and look at the sky lit up with stars. Great place to relax.
Perfect base to travel around Clare although you will need a car. Doolin is about a 40 minute walk down the hill, but a lovely walk on a sunny evening with great views of the surrounding countryside. Be sure to order your taxi home, all the taxi numbers are listed in your house manual. We were there in the off season so we found it difficult to get taxis home and ended up driving to dinner one night. Not a big issue but just be aware of it in case you like a glass of wine with dinner.
Phil was a great host, met us when we arrived and was on hand if we needed. He also had lots of tips on what to see in the locality.
Lovely place. We would absolutely stay here again.
