About this cottage rental
A beautiful home overlooking Doolin and the Aran Islands with Doonagore Castle close by, welcomes you to the “Wild Atlantic Way”
Located in a cul-de-sac of five houses, traffic is at a minimum and the only sounds being heard are the soft mooing of cows in the adjoining fields and the breaking of Atlantic waves on the shore below.
The views from the house are spectacular, sea and sky, with amazing sunsets over the Aran Islands and Galway Bay.
The house is a stylish cottage conversion designed by the owner, a well- known interior designer, whose family have long established roots in Co.Clare.
The theme of the interior is in keeping with the landscape, reflecting the colours from the rural setting outside. Soft off white walls with oak floors throughout the house creates an atmosphere of relaxed contemporary living.
Over 2800 square feet in size, on three quarters of an acre of manicured gardens, the house amply caters for seven people, both in space and luxury.
It comprises of four large double bedrooms, two of which are on the ground floor with views to the sea. Both have ensuite bathrooms, beautifully appointed with stone tiling and mirrored walls to reflect light. One of the ensuites is a "wet room" suitable for the elderly or those with limited mobility.
The main bathroom, also located on the ground floor, is equipped with bath and shower, and is finished to the highest standard.
As with all bathrooms it has underfloor heating.
Kitchen, dining and seating area join seamlessly together to form a central space and are beautifully appointed with large comfortable sofas, soft lighting, rugs and paintings. A wood burning fire in the main living area acts as a focal point and adds to the sense of warmth and cosiness.
Large picturesque windows which line the rear of the house, brings light and sunshine into the open plan living area and reflect the beautiful views around.
Sea Mist has been featured in two prestigious interior design magazines, House Beautiful in May 2015 and Home Interiors and Living in October 2015
If you wish to experience Irish life at it’s best, Sea Mist is the ideal location.

This is an absolutely exquisite property with the most amazing view! The house is spacious and lovely, with every amenity you would need. The town is just a drive down a hill. Absolutely, perfect in every way! Can’t wait to return!!

This was our second time booking this property, and the first time staying during the summer. Last time we enjoyed a week here during the winter and both times have been spectacular. Definitely more to do in the summer though. We loved the close access to the Doolin ferry and all the shops and restaurants. This is a great location for driving to visit the rest of Clare on easy day trips as well. Our group had 5 adults and the house was spacious and comfortable.

We absolutely loved our week at Sea Mist cottage. It was perfect for our entire family of six, including my husband and I, my Mom, Brother, and our two teenage boys. The cottage was decorated so well, was so welcoming and comfortable, clean and spacious! It was fully equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our week as a family. The views were absolutely spectacular. We loved riding our electric bikes into town and throughout all the bike routes in the area. We thanked ourselves for selecting the electric bikes on the way back up the hill to the cottage. Something we highly recommend for other staying at the cottage. We couldn’t imagine taking that trek back up to the cottage on a normal bike! Sea Mist cottage was perfect for us to find time together as a family at the dinner table, enjoying the view outside, or just chilling in the living room. The description of the bathroom situation could be a little bit better on the listing. Explain that there is only a toilet and sink in the upstairs bathroom next to the two bedrooms up there (all 3 showers are on the ground floor). So if people staying up there want to take a shower, they need to come downstairs. The only thing we couldn’t really figure out very well was the combination washer/dryer. The binder of information on all the appliances was great, but no matter what setting we used, we never could seem to get our clothes all the way dry. Other than that, we absolutely loved everything else about the cottage.

Generously appointed, spacious and modern. I wouldn't hesitate to book Seamist for a longer time than the few nights we stayed. It was so difficult to move on - sunsets over the ocean, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings for long conversations, and a picturesque castle tower nearby. Nearby are so many engaging activities - the Cliffs, Aran Islands, hiking, biking, swimming, Doolin, Lisdoonvarna. Fantastic beds, lovely bedding and linens. On a quiet road, good access to walking paths. It's the country, so shop for groceries before arrival. Highest recommendation. Easy check in, great communications.

Great property and location. Aran, Cliffs of Moher and so much more. We enjoyed everything about the house, view, amenities and decor.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved everything about the Sea Mist cottage. The location was unbeatable (4-5 minutes from downtown Doolin), unbelievable views (over looking the great Atlantic) and the layout of the house was superb. The main living space was separated from the bedrooms which was awesome for a large group (minimize noise for people sleeping). The bedrooms were incredibly comfy and bathrooms spacious. The entire property was newly renovated and appointed with very nice materials/fixtures. Highly recommend.

The home is spacious and beautifully appointed with spectacular views of the North Atlantic. We were also delighted to discover that we had a castle as a neighbor! We enjoyed the tranquil setting and were provided with everything we needed. Both the host and the manager were very responsive and gracious. We enjoyed the traditional music in Doolin and the numerous restaurants/pubs and all right next to the cliffs of Moher!
5.0 / 5.0
The Seamist home made our first trip to Ireland a completely gorgeous experience!
From the house we enjoyed the views of the ocean and the lush green scape.
Upon entering the house we were in awe of the large size and the beautiful decor.
We had more than enough space for our family of 5 adults.
The house had all the comforts and supplies we needed so we were truly able to relax.
And the Doolin area was everything we hoped for! We were able to travel to the Aran islands and Cliffs of Moher with ease. O’Connors pub was our favorite nearby restaurant and nightly hangout.
We hope to visit this home again in the near future!

4.0 / 5.0
House, gardens, most furnishings are lovely. Perhaps starting to need a bit of TLC ie kitchen organization, some wonky light fixtures etc.
Stunning views as promised, laneway in to house is quite rough.
Doolin itself is charming, spread out over quite an area and a steep walk down and back to the house.
Some great restaurants - our favourite was Glas.

The views were amazing from this house. If you want to feel part of what makes the coast of County Clare special this house did it for our family. The house itself was very functional and designed perfectly for the needs of a family vacation. We would 100% recommend it to others.

My wife and I spent a week at Sea Mist cottage in Doolin. The house is very comfortable and the Doolin area is quite amazing in terms of restaurants, pubs and spectacular scenery. The pictures of the house and views really can’t do justice to how beautiful it is. I would highly recommend this property.
5.0 / 5.0
Great views , great house, Doolin a short taxi ride , not so easy walk, especially back to house. One issue, I thought all bedrooms had a private full bath, that's not the case. 2 downstairs bedrooms have full baths, but the 2 bedrooms upstairs share a 1/2 bathroom...the full bathroom for them to use is actually on 1st floor at end of hallway. That being said, would highly recommend.

If you are looking for a quiet stay with breathtaking views you will find them both here. We found so many amazing places to visit and things to do within a short drive of the house. The inside is exactly as pictured and has everything you need and more. The owner had an amazing ability to see what this seaside cottage could become. I am so glad they did. I will recommend Seamist to my friends and family and hope to return one day.

The pictures cannot convey the warmth and luxurious set-up of the home. The owner was the most accommodating person to work with. The view could not be more breathtaking.

Amazing house - pictures don't adequately protray - with beautiful landscaping and gardens. Stunning sunsets over Galway Bay and the Aran Islands on the right and Cliffs of Moher on the left. Historical castle and tales of the Spanish Armada just over the hill. Great pubs and restaurants in Doolin and beautiful towns a short ride away.

Wonderful experience in an incredible house. Loved every minute of it.

SeaMist is a beautiful home located above Doolin with an amazing view. We were happy to take it all in from high above the town. A rental car made it easy to get into town, but it is a steep incline up to the house - so walking back and forth to town isn't practical. But no matter -- the house was a lovely refuge, and we would love to return!

We stayed with our 3 adult kids and their 2 spouses- location is amazing and so convenient to everything - The house is a perfect design and very spacious. A lovely view from every window. Comfortable beds and furnishings. The garden is beautiful ...Doolin is idyllic and so friendly. The food in the area is very good. We would definitely return to this home.

First , I would like to thank Pat, for allowing us to stay at his amazing home.
Place is exactly what you see in the pictures,
It’s 5 minutes away from cliffs of moher, home has everything you need, beds are really comfortable and I could keep going pointing everything home has to offer.
If you looking for a home in Ireland, that’s the one.
Once more , thanks Pat

Fabulous house in a fabulous location. The views out to sea were amazing even when it was blowing a gale it was wonderful to watch. The house is as described, kitchen well equipped and all finished to an extremely high standard. The kitchen living area is a very social space and worked really well for our group of 5 adults whilst the separate sitting room provided a nice breakout area. Would definitely try to book again next time I return to Doolin.

This is a rental property that will be hard to give up the details to with my friends and family - it's THAT good. Truly the first rental property I've stayed at that was even better than the pictures. If you are looking to get away from the city and are looking for a more rural stay, this is for you.

Just home following 4 fantastic nights in Sea Mist. The house is even better than the pics and the ocean views are superb. Can’t wait to book our next visit!
