About this house rental

This beautiful home in Doolin, Ireland was built in 1998 as a traditional, thatched-roof, Irish cottage and contains all modern amenities.

Each of the bedrooms is en suite, with antique pine furniture. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and the two guest rooms each have twin beds. The master bath has a bathtub and shower. The house has wireless access.

The Great Room has a two story fireplace, conveniently gas fired. There is a panoramic conservatory with 180 degree views, including Cecil B. Demille sunsets.

The view from the house was featured in the September 2007 issue of Conde Nast Traveler magazine. The striking Doonagore Castle, one of the most photographed castles in Ireland, is located immediately down the hill from the cottage and is framed by the conservatory windows. A round tower built c.1350, Doonagore Castle was entirely restored in 1975.

The cottage is surrounded by grazing cattle, lending another level of tranquility to the idyllic setting.

A circular driveway brings guests close to the front door, should there ever be inclement weather! We joke that our favorite occupation is sitting in the conservatory and watching the weather change.

When the cottage was being built, one of the builders suggested naming the cottage. He said we should name it Draiocht, which means a magical place, and it is.

This house and town will hold a special place in our family’s heart forever. It is amazing. The home was perfect for our family of 4 ( kids ages 10 and 12). Everything we needed was there and available. The yard and view were breathtaking. The beds comfy, everything was clean and commutation was great. Thank you for such a wonderful stay in an amazing town. We can’t wait to come back.

We loved this house the moment we saw it! It sits high on a hill above the sea and a castle! You can see the Aran islands and the cute town of Doolin below. Sunsets were amazing! We walked down the steep hill to Doolin once. Very difficult climb back up so we didn’t do it again. The house was just right for the 4 of us. The viewing room was where we spent all of our time. It was our first time in Ireland and this house was the perfect Ireland setting!

We simply loved this gem just a stones throw from the small town of Doolin. It is a wonderful home base for exploring the wild Atlantic way but also perfect if you just want to sit outside (or in the lovely living room!), looking out over the ocean and the castle practically on the doorstep! Don't miss a meal at Homestead Cottage, a five minute drive away. We would return in a heartbeat!

The view of the castle and ocean out the back windows was an incredible way to start the day. Hiked to the Cliffs of Moher & took the ferry from Doolin to the Aran Islands. The house is charming, comfortable & quiet. Highly recommend it.

It is not easy to be cozy and spectacular at the same time, but this is both. Along with the view of the castle and Aran Islands, we were also impressed with the furniture and lovely artwork. The washer and dryer were a plus. There are a number of pubs within a short drive, but little far for walking. Indeed the cottage is wonderfully located, close to Galway, the Cliffs, and the fabulous Doolin Cave. Indeed this cottage is a gem.
