Our communication with our hosts was impeccable from the start. They treated us with a beautiful card with wishes to our celebration and special treats upon our arrival. The bedroom mattresses were comfortable and all sheets were clean. There were some towels for us and a compact washer/dryer when we needed more. Their instructions were clear so we knew what to do, during opening and closing of Shore Haven. We used two bedrooms and the 3rd one was our suitcase/clothes areas. The glass in closed sanctuary was comfortable and we ate several meals out there. Perfect views. The home was right on the water with beautiful views. You will see the changes of tides and weather changes every day. When the weather is not blocking the sunset, it’s a perfect view for seeing and taking pictures. The local pub in Quilty has food, great service, and Guinness within walking distance from home. There is also a local store (watch opening/closing times). It’s a perfect hub for touring around the area in County Clare. We will stay again.

Beautiful property at an amazing location. Loved sitting in the sunroom and watching the sun rise and set over the water. Location is quiet and peaceful but perfectly located to see many sights. The owner was accommodating and very communicative. Couldn’t ask for a more idyllic stay.

What a wonderful stay we had here at Shorehaven. It was the perfect place for a relaxing few days to end our touring in West Clare. Mike and Tina were great hosts. Clear communication. Well appointed kitchen, thoughtful amenities, and immaculate. Sweet and comfortable cottage on the water. And literally, ON the water. The sound of waves right outside, and spectacular sunsets. Several seating areas outside and in the “sunroom” for relaxing and taking in the views. Good location for quick run to shops etc, , nice area for walking, and great spot for touring wild Atlantic way. Will be returning!

What a great place to stay on the water. It's quiet this time of year, which was what we were looking for. We still saw a lot ... The Cliffs of Moher aren't far, and the cliffs at Kilky are even nicer, IMHO. Our hosts were excellent. They had left some snacks as a welcome gift and were helpful with a late checkout. We will definitely stay there again.
