Great cottage, well equipped. Host very responsive and helpful. We were four but sleeps six comfortably. Our kids (7 & 9) loved it as they could sleep on the mezzanine and spy on us! We were happy with the remote location as we were out all day but it might not suit those who like to walk to pubs, shops etc.
Nice food about 10-20 mins drive away. Keatings in Kilbaha is closest and I can vouch for the crab claws and the Guinness :) Longdock in Carrigaholt definately the best food. Morriseys of Carrigaholt has free Irish performances over the Summer too - worth going if you are there but go early. Finally, there is a playground beside Keatings and a really nice gallery around the corner (good coffee and cake here).
Lighthouse worth a visit. If you want to go further the Ailwee caves and bird experience near Ballyvaughan are great - kids loved the birds. On this trip we also visited a perfumery and saw the famous Dolmen on the Burren.Another day when it rained we went to the pool in Kilkee. Great slide but make sure to bring your flip flops!
All in all this house was a cosy retreat at the end of our days exploring beautiful Clare - I would really recommend it! (Ps DVDs, including Harry Potter were really very welcome :) )
