Summary: What a grand place to stay. The home was like we were stepping back in time but with all the modern amenities. Whitegate was a great location to stay if you want to see Western and Southern Ireland. Do yourself a favor and visit the local restaurant/pub. So good! Carol and Kevin are the best of the best. Carol was instrumental in making our daily jaunts absolutely wonderful. Ireland was magical and so was this place! Say “HI” to Rosie and Sally for us when you visit!

Summary: It’s difficult to know where to begin! Ireland is an incredible country to begin with, and staying at Williamstadt House adds that sprinkle of magic that everyone looks for on vacation. Equal parts charm and luxury…it feels like home in all the best ways. A warm hearth, a fully stocked kitchen, spacious bedrooms with welcoming beds that beckon you to sleep a little longer on a rainy morning, a courtyard out of the pages of a magazine, your own private shebeen. What more could one look for? We enjoyed the company of our gracious and warm hosts (Carole and Kevin) for two lovely meals on the patio, and thoroughly enjoyed the company of Sally and Rosie (their gentle and loving dogs) who made us (and our three children) feel right at home. The location of the house is just enough out of the way to make you feel, well, away; but close enough to the spectacle that is the Wild Atlantic Way that you won’t miss a thing! Words simply don’t do this special place justice. We are so looking forward to our next visit and consider Carole and Kevin part of our extended family. Thank you for a most memorable getaway!

Summary: Our family of seven thoroughly enjoyed Williamstadt House and the owners, Carole and Kevin. There is so much to enjoy at the property: the lough (loch) with kayaks, the meadow and planting, the original courtyard with a watering trough built into the stream branch running under the house, and a cozy fireplace aglow amid family portraits, antique furniture and wonderfully eclectic furnishings. Situated at the northwest edge of County Clare, the house has a path through its 50 acres to the lake, about a 1 km walk. The house is about an hour from places such as Galway, the Cliffs of Moher and the Graves of the Leinstermen. Two closer places of interest are Bunratty Castle and Craggaunowen, each about half an hour away. We went to nearby Feakle, renowned for folk music, to Peppers Pub. One hint on getting there from Dublin: don’t take the Google Maps route in from the North, because of all the narrow roads, instead take the southerly route toward Limerick, mostly motorway! Thank you Carole and Kevin for the great stay and wonderful conversations.

Summary: Staying at Williamstadt house was an absolutely magical experience. Meeting hosts Kevin and Carol is like spending time with your favorite relatives. They made us feel completely at home in their beautiful estate full of fascinating treasures. It is truly an artist’s dream full of interesting artwork, objects and beautiful images and places to paint. We also enjoyed the company of loyal canine companions ready to cuddle or play at a moments notice. Chickens, ducks and donkeys also received plenty of our attention. Our children were of just the right ages (12-16) to enjoy the magic without harming any of the beautiful things curated around us. I have found that the best thing about Ireland has been the people and you will find the best of the best at Williamstadt House and in the village of Whitegate, Co. Clare. I would highly recommend this stay!

Summary: Unique and quirky house set in gorgeous grounds. Very comfortable and spacious. Helpful hosts, generous with their time. So much to see and do.

Nancy M. Oct 28, 2019 12:21:09 AM

Summary: Carole and Kevin invited us into their lovingly restored home as if we were old friends that they wanted to have the best possible time during our week's stay. Everything I read in past reviews of their kindness and generosity was all true. They are both fantastic. Kevin actually gave the boots off his feet to one of our tribe that had forgotten his boots at home. Could not have had a better time and it would not have been possible without Carole and Kevin.

Summary: Lovely house with terrific hosts made for a wonderful stay

Joe V. Jul 9, 2019 04:02:02 PM

Summary: Property is an excellent example of a country estate that existed over 200 years ago. Carole and Kevin are very gracious and generous hosts, who were a pleasure to meet and interact with during our stay. Prior positive reviews are right on point. If you are looking for a stay equivalent to a high-end hotel, you will be disappointed. However, if you would enjoy stepping back in time, staying in home and on a property that is full of history, and being hosted by two very warm and genuine people, this property can't be matched.

Summary: Words can't express the delight of our overall experience staying at the Williamstadt House. We stayed for five nights our party included two adults and three teen boys. All of us fell in love with not only the house and the property but also our hosts Carole and Kevin. I have to mention that we also fell in love with their three very personable pups Walter, Sally, and Scout. The house itself was like living back in time with all the modern amenities. The house offered plenty of space, cozy sitting rooms, and comfy beds. Carole was the sweetest host who was very helpful with local attractions and Kevin was very charming and funny. We look forward to keeping in touch with them and making a return visit as soon as we can. We can honestly say that we felt homesick for Williamstadt as soon as we left, it was truly the best vacation property we have ever experienced!

Stuart R. Jun 17, 2019 07:52:19 AM

Summary: We stayed at Whitegate in the big house as 4 couples and Carole and Kevin were wonderful hosts. They went out of their way to make our 6 days the best possible. We loved having the dogs Sally, Scout and Walter hanging out with us. A great base location for touring the sites of the South. We all loved it.
