Overall, this house was spacious, in a great location, and had gorgeous views of Doolin. We had some issues with amenities and accuracy but nothing that majorly impacted the stay. If you’re wanting to do the Cliffs of Moher trek, definitely stay in Doolin...it’s a wonderful little village with great pubs and access to so many of Ireland’s attractions that are all very accessible by bus.
Some things to keep in mind for travelers that would have helped us:
- if you’re not going by car and/or can’t use a GPS...be aware that the smaller side streets aren’t really labeled, and asking around for ‘Doolin Court’ will result in an array of varying directions...that said, it was a little aggravating trying to find the house. So here are the easy walking directions: get yourself to Fitzpatrick’s Bar (it’s not on the main strip, but closer to Hotel Doolin), go down the footpath/bridge that’s opposite of Fitzpatrick’s (there will be a donkey in the small field to your left), keep walking past the BnBs and campsites, it will eventually be on your right (very recognizable from the picture).
- finding somewhere with WiFi (that was actually powerful enough to use) right when we got in Doolin was actually really hard for us. So make sure to get the check-in directions from the host before you arrive if you rely on WiFi for internet connection.
- be prepped that there aren’t really any good food markets that are walkable (but very good cafes and restaurants!) so if you’re coming from another spot with a grocery store...get them there.
Overall recommend but hopefully these tips help the bag packers traveling by public trans!
