We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The Burren is right out the door and the countryside is beautiful. House was well stocked and clean. We used this as our base of operations for a few days while exploring Galway and other places on the west coast of Ireland. Would definitely recommend!

A clean, roomy cottage with 5 bedrooms, large kitchen, dining room and living room. The host is wonderful and so knowledgeable of the area if you have any questions. The cottage is not located in a village so be sure to stock up on groceries in Ballyvaughan or Lisdoonvarna on your way. There is a pub with food located just a few kilometers away. It was a very enjoyable stay with so much to do in the area. Just not enough time!

Nice Cottage in rural area! Loved the cows right at the back patio! The hot water took a minute to figure out would be nice if this info was included in the cottage info book! Beach was a bit further than expected but beautiful! Anne was very nice and responsive!! Wi-Fi should be included with cottage info as well, Delayed figuring out the hot water because we didn’t have service. Beautiful area, Irish music in Doolin Pubs was fantastic!

Ann was such a wonderful host. She was so friendly and helpful. The cottage was comfortable and cozy. The cottage was beautifully and authentically designed. Everything that we wanted to see was within a 2-3 hour drive. The cottage was away from the business and noise of towns but within 10-15 kilometers of pubs,markets, sites to visit like Doolin Caves and Aiwee Caves, and stores.

The cottages of Fanore are a lovely traditional cottage located in a beautiful setting that will take your breath away. The cozy fireplace and the sea view from the master suite is absolutely stunning. It is located close to many amazing attractions both new and old from the cliffs of Moher the caves of Aillwee and the beautiful moonscape of the burren . I’d stay there again!

Anne is a very attentive host. Very helpful with which sites to see in the area! Home is spacious in a beautiful rural setting. Which sits between the ocean and barren. Definitely would stay again. Only drawback that we did not realize is the extra charge of electric and fuel usage at the end of the stay which is understandable since it is such a large house.

We stayed in multiple areas of Ireland and this was by far our favorite. The views were amazing and the cottage was clean, comfortable, well appointed, and just perfect. There are not many houses in the area, it’s just natural and stunning. We took a trip to the Cliffs of Moher, but I think we all enjoyed exploring the beach, rocks and cliffs down the road just as much if not more. I will definitely be returning to Ireland and this will be my first choice for accommodations.

A wonderful opportunity to experience this wild part of County Clare in a beautiful spacious and comfortable house. Mary and Christy, the owners, were welcoming and very obliging.
