What a great choice we made staying in Fanore at Anne Pilkington’s cottage! This was a great base for our touring plans and allowed us to spend time learning about the history of the area through Anne and John’s Burren Mountain Tour. Our cottage was very clean, organized, and easy to access. It also allowed for privacy and a true vacation feel.

A wonderful place for a family!

This lovely rustic cottage was a perfect spot for a 3-generation trip to the beautiful Burren area. Lots of space for kids, parents, and grandparents to sleep and all the amenities needed to take care of little kiddos (kitchen, washing machine, bath, etc).
