This 3-bedroom house is immaculate! It is the best place we stayed at during our two months in Ireland. There is everything you need for a long or short term stay. Its quiet location is within a few minutes walking distance to shopping, pubs, restaurants and a very doable hike to the Cliffs of Moher, along with many other hikes. We had a slight issue at the house, and Patrick resolved it immediately. He is a great Host. I highly recommend this very relaxing and perfectly located property.

We had a great time and the split plan was perfect for our two couples. Everything was clean and in order. Perfect location for relaxation and see8ng the local sites including a day trip to Galway. Our only critique is the pots and pans needed a little updating. Our

The location was walkable to many shops and pubs. You can see the cliffs from the front parking area. Cottage was clean and adorable. Plenty of room for our group of 3 adults. Host was quick to respond to questions and very helpful. Overall a perfect, idyllic location.

This house is in a great location for a stay in Doolin - just a few minutes walk from Gus O’Connor’s pub and some shops, and a few miles away from 3 other good pubs, all with Irish music at night. The house has everything that you might need and Patrick stopped in a couple of times to see if everything was good. I recommend this as a good place to stay in Doolin.

Awesome location, cozy home with 3 full batgs in each room. Perfect for a submersive irish country side experience. We were 4 people 2 adukt children and us parents. This was by far more impressive in person than we imagined. Patrick O'Brien helped us get acclimated and brought his horse over to visit in the back yard. My girls lloved tge hirse Lilly and we all enjoyed the pubs and shops all eithin a couple m8nutes from tge house. Doolin is a myst ser! We will be back again!@

Clean, comfortable house in a very quiet area located very close to Gus, O’Connors pub, and the quaint village of Doolin. Very easy access to the cliffs of Mohr and a nice jump off spot for other destinations on the west coast. The house was fully furnished with everything at six people needed and host. Patrick always make sure to take care of any concerns that we had instantly. If you were looking for a very bustling rowdy night life, this is not the place for you. However, if you want the classic traditional Irish pub and music experience you will not be disappointed with the cuckoos nest.

The house was spotless and beautifully furnished, very, very charming yet contemporary at the same time. The views were nice and the location could not have been better for walking to the main street or driving a very short distance to the pier. Patrick, our host was very responsive and easy to reach. The home had everything we needed and I can’t stress enough how lovely and clean it was. Loved everything about it!

The Cuckoo’s Nest was the most beautiful, peaceful house you could stay at to explore Doolin and surrounding areas. Every possible thing you would need was in the house. Three nights was not long enough!

The property was maintained to a very high standard. It was more like a home from home, rather than a holiday rental. Patrick came to meet us and introduced us to Lilly the horse in the back garden. We made ourselves very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cockoos Nest.

We loved our stay and would definitely come back to Doolin. Patrick was a great host and answered our questions quickly. The house is close to restaurants and local activities. We recommend Ivy Cottage - had breakfast and dinner. We also ate at Gus O’Connors and McGanns. Both were really good.

Very comfortable house with everything you need for your stay. Easy drive to Cliffs of Moher and The Burren. Literally just down the hill from Gus O’Connors, where we spent several evenings. Patrick was a gracious host and made everything very easy for us.

The location is great. Walking distance to pubs and beginning of Cliffs of moher walk. Go to grocery for staples before u get into town as there is not a grocery store near by. They have a great washer and dryer and supply laundry pods. It was a wonderful place. Once we checked in Patrick was easy to get in touch with when we needed him

You will love your stay at the Cockoo's Nest. Ultra clean, ultra modern. I could easily live there! Great showers and very quiet. A short walk to lower Doolin and Gus O'Conner's. Pier is a bit of a walk but still close by. If I stay in Doolin again, it will be at the Coolio's Nest!

This cottage was clean, modern and yet charming. Fabulous location where you can walk to any local pub, or the pier or the Cliffs of Moher. Patrick brought his mare Lily to “mow” the grass and we enjoyed her very much. The wifi works but there’s not a lot of data but you’re not there to surf the net so it wasn’t a big deal for us. We had 4 adults and everyone was comfortable. Would stay here again for sure. Thx Patrick :)

Suggest a door from dining area to 2 bedroom area as it it can be noisy in these bedrooms when people are in the kitchen. Other than that absolutely excellent.

We were a group of three couples and the Cuckoo's Nest provided perfect accommodations for us all. It was accurately depicted, clean and conveniently located. Pubs and shops are within easy walking distance and the ferry to the Aran Islands is just a short drive down the road. Our host provided excellent hospitality and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. We would stay there again, only longer if we could!

An outstanding property and one that we would not hesitate to use again. Great location in the village. For sightseeing it is close to many interesting and scenic areas and suitable for those who like to hike/walk or drive. Patrick was a gracious and friendly host. We were a party of 6 and while there were lots of lovely places to eat in the area we chose to cook most nights and found the kitchen very easy to use. All in all a lovely place to stay.

My husband and I spent a week in this cute cottage and absolutely loved it, we were in Ireland for nearly 4 weeks and this was by far our favorite accommodation. The house is newly renovated with 3 bedrooms, 2 with en-suite baths and a large stand alone bath with a tub and shower. We had two groups of friends join us at different times for a few days and there was more than enough room for everyone. The location in Doolin can not be better, walking distance to everything including the Cliffs of Moher via the stunning Cliff Walk. The house has a very well equipped kitchen, a laundry room with washer and dryer and a lovely sitting room with very comfortable furnishings. Patrick was quick to respond to any questions and concerns, he lives very nearby and was always available if needed. I highly recommend the Cuckoo’s Nest for your holiday in Ireland!

We stayed in this beautiful place June 4th through to June 7th, 2018. The accommodation was well appointed, very clean and wonderfully furnished. The host, Pat, was excellent at meeting up with us and discussing the place and nearby attractions. We enjoyed our stay at the Cuckoo's Nest in Doolin very much and would not hesitate to return to this magical place. In addition, a special thanks to Theresa next door at making us feel like old neighbours. Thanks again Pat for a wonderful experience. Andrew and Valerie Nelson British Columbia, Canada

We loved the Cuckoo’s Nest. Owners are great, very responsive, and live close by if you have any problems. In my travels, kitchen was more equipped than others that I have seen. Tea, coffee, pasta was left in panty which I like because I always try to cook a meal or two when on the road using fresh local ingredients. Usually you are lucky to find salt and pepper. Nearest town to get provisions is 20 minutes away in Ennistimon where there is a supermarket, butcher, produce, and whatever you may need. I am a chef and I pack a good pan and a knife in my suitcase when I travel but it wasn’t need here. Halogen stove and oven. The linens were top of the line. Queen size beds were a treat. Key point. This is set up like someone’s home and not just a rental. Definitely worth while. Bonus is that you are no more than 100 meters from the nearest pub. WiFi is spotty but who cares. Remember you are in Doolin.

Pat’s house is absolutely breathtaking and one of my favorite home rentals. The location is exactly as described - very easy to access pubs for trad music, shops for souvenirs, and the pier to go the Aran Islands! We had a car and would still recommend it. We didn’t get a chance to meet the owners, but sincerely hope to get to return to this beautiful town and house. As a side note, definitely check out Doolin Cave! A highlight of our trip!!!
