Great place to slow down in Ireland back country. I took long walks out various lanes around the cottage with crazy pictorial scenes the entire way. Needed to contact host for a small instruction and was answered promptly. And, easy to Burren and Cliffs of Moher. Hike the Burren!!!

Beautiful Irish setting

We stayed in 5 properties during our time in Ireland. This was by far the most beautiful. It was a surprise to be right on The Burren. Although house was “rural” it was easy to get to the places we wanted and to the nearest town for dinner and music. Michael was extremely accommodating and a delight to chat with.

Ein tolles Ferienhaus, wenn man Ruhe sucht. Es gab alles, was wir brauchten. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden das Cottage sofort wieder buchen. Das es ein paar Kilometer vom nächsten Ort entfernt ist wussten wir, das störte uns nicht. Das Meer mit vielen Klippen ist mit dem Auto in ca 20 Minuten zu erreichen, durch eine wunderschöne Landschaft.
