Summary: We stayed for a week in July 2023 and used this cottage as a home base to explore part of Ireland’s west coast. My 12 year old daughter and 6 year old some both loved that they got their own rooms here, there is a huge bathtub, loads of games to play as a family, and so much space to spread out. The kitchen is clean and well stocked. This place has a washer and a dryer! Your closest beach, Fanore beach, is a great one. There are loads of other beaches to explore in neighboring towns. If you like to hike, this cottage is nestled in the Burren and super close to great hikes. We enjoyed the pub in Fanore, great fresh seafood. It’s not too big a trip into Galway only about an hour. And in the other direction staying here makes seeing the Cliffs of Moher and taking a boat to the Aran Islands very close too. We would stay here again. The hosts are responsive and have a lovely space to share for vacation.

Summary: Our family took advantage of every lovely amenity and nuance of this wonderful cottage. We had puzzle night in front of the peat burning stove, we watched a fox family in the hedges and took the quick trip to the near by golden beach at low tide and investigated sea life. The cottage's kitchen is spacious and well stocked. The rooms are big & well appointed. We had a wonderful time.

Summary: This cottage is perfect. The rooms are spacious. The light is incredible. We were close to lots of really cool things by car. We were also close to more beauty than I’ve ever seen on foot. The area is very rural so make plans ahead for groceries and food. We were able to get enough signal from wifi to check emails and use google/limited social apps. Come prepared to entertain yourself, but there are plenty of books and games to help get you started. The hosts were wonderful and we enjoyed their fresh eggs with Irish butter and toast every morning. We had a visit from a neighboring cow who took a wrong turn and snacked her way back to her friends. This was the perfect spot for us.

Susanne F. Jan 9, 2023 04:23:33 AM

Summary: The cottage is exactly as the pictures show. It is charming, warm and cozy. The peat fire was the perfect touch. The kitchen had everything needed to make wonderful meals. As stated the WIFI is spotty and there is no cell service at the cottage. We planned for this so it was fine. We would love to return for a longer stay.

Martha D. Jul 21, 2022 11:02:10 AM

Summary: Very comfortable, spacious home. Pretty location. Kitchen had everything we needed. Keep in mind this is a remote location so WIFI is not reliable. We were out a lot and didn’t use it much, but you you should also be aware that WIFI usage is limited so ask the owner about that in case it may be a concern for your stay.

Anouk & Joe (&Taranaki) S. Sep 13, 2021 05:00:27 AM

Summary: We stayed three weeks with our 3 children (3, 5 & 7 years). The house is spatious, the location remote and quiet, the surroundings most interesting. We had some rainy days but enjoyed the beach anyways and were happy about the cosy fireplace. We can recommand excursions to the Burren Sanctuary an Moher Hill Farm. We had a wonderful time and would recommand the place without hesitation.
