We could not have been more pleased with Clare Rose Cottage. It was perfect for our group of 3 adults and 2 children (11&12yo). Pictures do not do it justice. From the front view overlooking the cliffs to the beautiful garden out back and cow pasture. The house is immaculate and updated. Unfortunately, we actually spent little time in the house. In the time we did, the house is extremely comfortable and felt like home with plenty of space and sitting areas for everyone. Mary was an absolute pleasure to deal with and could not have been more hospitable. Leading up to our trip she covered just about everything we could think about. Definitely hope to make it back to Clare Rose Cottage in the near future!

This property was better than we could even imagine! When we pulled into the driveway and could see the cliffs and ocean from the house we knew we picked the perfect place. The inside was clean and had everything we needed to feel at home, including a kitchen the gave us the ability to prepare meals like we would at home. Mary was a great host providing us with detailed information about the property, how to travel there, and things to do in the area. We hope to return here in the future!

Wonderful property! Very spacious, clean, and close to everything we wanted. Wonderfully stocked kitchen, very comfortable all around. Mary is a wonderful host, quick to respond to any questions regarding the local area or the home itself. If visiting the Cliffs of Moher, highly recommend staying here.

The house is just as it’s presented and the glowing reviews are very accurate. The house is centrally located yet out & away. Very comfortable spot for our party, including all the necessities. Mary provided all kinds of info on sites, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Everyone in our party raved about the house. Oh, and Georry the property manager is a hoot! Book your stay - you will love it!

We had the BEST stay at Clare Rose Cottage! After multiple 2-night stays all over Ireland we were so excited to settle in for this 4-night stay, to wrap up our trip. And it didn’t disappoint! This cottage has every amenity, not to mention lovely flower gardens in front / back yards. And off in the distance (the HUGE pic window in sunroom addition is amazing) there are views of the ocean / Cliffs of Moher. And I know I should NOT say this … we came to a foreign country to experience new things (!) … but the comforts of home that our other 4 vrbo’s didn’t have on this trip were a delight. Top sheets, wash cloths, a drip coffee maker, giant fridge & showers, smart TV’s, and (my fave) a SEPARATE washer & dryer … Clare Rose cottage had it all. (Kitchen and baths all recently renovated.) Cottage is close to Doolin & Lisdoonvarna both, for pubs, music, groceries etc … and we did easy day trips to Galway, the Cliffs of Moher, and the Burren. Also I can’t stress enough … check out Ballinalacken Castle too if you stay here. It wasn’t even noted in my guidebook, but it’s literally 5 min away. Next to the teeny 15-room 1930’s-built hotel is a very cool ruin / watch-tower from the 1600s that you can tour w/ the owners … not to mention the Michelin-starred meal we enjoyed in the tiny restaurant, post tour. Very cool, esp after we’d been turned off by the HORDES at Cliffs of Moher that morning 🙁 Mary was amazing to work with too - very responsive. Highly recommend!

Beautiful area , perfect house for 4-5 (6) persons; kind welcome and support from Gerry on site. A car to visite the beautiful area around is recommended. Perfect kitchen and dining room.

The house was phenomenal, the property manager was excellent, and very easy to communicate with. The location in Lisdoonvarna was close to many wonderful attractions too many to list. Would definitely stay at the house again If we were in that part of Ireland. Excellent value and highly recommended.

Clare Rose house was perfect for our group of 6 adults. The house has a great layout for communal hanging out and the ability to tuck away for more privacy. The modern kitchen is roomy and open with a big gas stove with multiple ovens. There are 2 comfortable living rooms, one with gorgeous views to the cliffs, and a lovely sun room looking out over the garden. All 3 bedrooms have en suite bathrooms. The house has ceramic flooring throughout and our room and bath had in floor heating - no musty carpeting or curtains which can be an issue in Ireland. Communication with the house owner is easy. When we had a minor plumbing issue, it was resolved quickly. We will definitely return - can’t imagine staying anywhere else when visiting the west!
