We were looking for our own quiet spot on the west coast of Ireland, and we found it here at the Yellow Cottage in Doolin. Phil and Valerie were perfect hosts. The whole experience in the cottage was a perfect blend of historic Ireland living (wood burning fireplace) and modern essential conveniences (hot water and Internet) which is exactly what we were looking for. We planned on driving up to Galway for a day and ended up staying in Doolin, which is truly beautiful and has plenty to explore (made easier by the extensive guidebook and website the hosts assembled themselves) One tip from us would be to rent as small car if you can, will make some of the narrow county roads easier, especially if your accustomed to driving on the opposite side of the road!
