The Stone House - Wild Atlantic Way

This house is truly a remarkable work of art. It was built to resemble an old stone barn and does so beautifully.

On the bottom floor there are two bedrooms both with en suite bathrooms. One bedroom has a king size bed while the other has a queen. There is a study just outside the master bedroom. Upstairs you will find a magnificent Great Room. At the one end there is a seating area in front of a gorgeous stone fireplace. At the other end you can sit and take in the Aran Islands, Galway Bay and breathtaking sunsets through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

In the center of the room, there is a kitchen area with an antique table. Also, hidden behind the fireplace, there is a powder room. The entire house has under floor heating which is truly decadent in the cool Irish countryside.

For those of you who wish to leave the house you will find abundant entertainment. There is a gorgeous sand beach just down the road. For the golfers in your group there is a world-class golf course just a few towns over in Lahinch. Also in Lahinch you will find some of the country's best surfing. Fanore is not as renowned for its surfing but does have a surf school every summer. And for those of you music lovers, Doolin is just one town over and is renowned for its traditional Irish music.

In addition Doolin has many incredible restaurants and pubs. And if you need to get out of the countryside and into a city, Galway is just an hour away. It’s a wonderful city. Despite its small size you can find most anything you need there. If you’re looking for a great bottle of Irish Whiskey or an unusual bottle of wine, go to The Vineyard then stop by Sheridan’s Cheesemongers where you will find an amazing selection of cheese from around the world. But for those who wish to explore Fanore, you will find gorgeous scenic walks and some of the best angling in the country. And if you want to see things from s different angle, go horseback riding. You’ll love it.

The house is just up the road from O'Donohue's Pub and a small grocery shop. Both of them are within walking distance.

We had a wonderful time at The Stone House! I especially loved all the artwork inside and out in the garden. We enjoyed a couple meals at O'Donohues and explored the Burren and Ballyvaughan. Our stay was April 1-4 and it was COLD... I wish we would have gotten more supplies to keep a fire going the entire time we were in the house because the upstairs was quite cold! But the beds were cozy so we slept well. My only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer! :)

Great ocean views, beautiful decor, a comfortable bed and very warm. What more could one ask for? The pub up the road with a roaring fire and delicious food! I am afraid to go on as we would like to stay in Stone House again! Luckily we love the West of Ireland in the winter and walking the Burren in the peace and quiet so hopefully there will always be room for us. Gary and Sharon

Can’t be to the views

Beautiful property. There is a small grocery store and pub just a short walk away. The showers were particularly nice - hot and great water pressure - and you appreciate this all the more if you’ve spent the day out in the wind and rain. A short drive to Doolin and the Cliffs. Would definitely recommend this property.

Incredibly charming house with an amazing view!

We stayed at the Stone House for 4 nights and hated to leave. We were delighted with everything about the house itself, and the view of the ocean and cows was amazing! Being in the Burren was really wonderful and we visited many of the places recommended by our hosts. The pub down the street had delicious food and we tended to avoid the crowds of Doolin. I can’t recommend this house highly enough and we hope to come back some day.
