A large yard with manicured lawn is ideal for children and completely fenced in. Cows sometimes graze in the fields next door.

We were so happy in this house - we could have moved right in. We had two families in this house with 4 adults and 5 children. There was plenty of room for us all. There was nothing that we could have wanted for, and the owners family member was local- and very helpful to us. The location and views from this house could not have been any better. In fact, we found a local artist that we liked, and as we were going through his collection, one of his prints was the view from our house! To be so close to the Cliffs of Moher and the ferry to the Aran Islands was great. Don't hesitate to rent this house!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, sightseeing, adventure seekers, families with teenagers.

My girlfriends and I had the absolute pleasure of staying at this amazing home in the charming and authentic town in Doolin. We woke up every morning to the spectacular, oceanfront view of the Aran Islands. The home itself is fabulous with all the modern amenities found in an upscale American home - including a full sized refrigerator and washer and dryer- yet somehow the home still retained all of its true Irish charm. It was our ideal Irish vacation. The town of Doolin was right out of an Irish storybook and we loved visiting Clare's jam shoppe and the Cliffs if Moher only minutes away. Just writing this makes me want to book my next trip back. This home and its village does not disappoint!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, sightseeing, families with teenagers.
