Cozy Beach Cottage with Lots of Character
- Minimum stay:N/A
- Internet:No
- Pets allowed:Yes
- Wheel chair accessible:No
One of the closest dwelling houses to the beach, this authentic, restored centuries-old stone cottage is tucked between Fanore Beach and the Burren Hills on The Coast Road between the beach entrance and a Surf School. It is a short walk to O'Donohue's traditional Irish Seafood Pub, an award-winning restaurant and bakery, a nearby sea-angling shop, a convenience shop, and the local (Craggagh) Post Office.
The house was restored to be very snug and cozy. It has spectacular views of the sea and the sunset. The living room has a working turf and wood fireplace and an upstairs loft with a modern, high quality queen-size bed and two large skylights for star-gazing. The all-electric kitchen includes central heating, large rustic table and benches, and traditional hand-made furniture, including 2 blackthorn rockers for long hours of reading by the fire. The lux bathhouse (once the cow-house) is a few steps outside, across a back patio, with separate central heating, shower and soaking tub. The main house has two additional downstairs bedrooms, one double and one single.
The back patio is a great perch for private sunning, morning coffee, and for hanging beach towels after a day of swimming or surfing.
There is off-street parking for 2-3 small cars adjacent to the bathhouse with back-entrance access to the house.
This is an ideal house for couples desiring to experience an authentic traditional Irish farm cottage and commune with nature in a quiet sanctuary.

We had an amazing time in Clancy cottage. It was definitely an experience we would all like again. The locals were so nice and sweet. The weather was beautuful most of the time, so we got to see so much more than we expected.The cottage was perfect for a cozy experience and was enjoyed thoroughly sitting around the fireplace!! Cottage is right off coast road, and after learning to drive on the left lane, it was really easy to get to Doolin, Cliffs of Moher, horseback riding from Mountain view Riding, fanore beach, and cave exploration. Thanks again Barbara for a memorable trip!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers.
