Photos and Description of this County Clare holiday cottage 3 bedrooms,1 bathroom, sleeps maximum 7

This cosy 19th century converted cottage is located on the west coast of County Clare just outside the little town of Doonbeg. The setting of the cottage is breathtaking. As shown in the photographs, the cottage is blessed with spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and is surrounded by rolling green fields. The Aran Islands can be seen on the ocean horizon to the north-west. The beach (the White Strand) and cliff walks are minutes from the door. The Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, and Doolin (where ferries run to the Aran Islands) are within an hour's drive. There are of course many local pubs and good restaurants. Opened July 2002, The Doonbeg Golf Club, designed by the legendary two-time British Open champion Greg Norman. 'A true Links site - soaring, grass-covered dunes rising nearly one hundred feet tall above the white-capped Atlantic'. A private club with public play.

Guest Book : Tour Guide comments - January 2007 ‘Englishman Paul Richard Barton has worked with Globus for 30 years, and he currently leads escorted vacations in the British Isles -- about 20 trips a year. He shares some of his top picks in the UK and Ireland -- from his favorite pub and restaurant to the best places for a family vacation or for romance.’ Here’s what he says about Ireland for each of the following: Best spot for romance: ‘A cottage close to the beach on the west coast of Ireland, such as in Donegal or County Clare.’ Best spot for families: ‘Anywhere in Ireland - It's very family friendly.’ Best shopping: ‘Wherever the locals shop. Also, all over Ireland’.. Best pub: 'The Davy Byrnes in Dublin, Ireland'

Golf: 'Ireland's southwestern coast is home to a pair of the world's most storied Links courses, Bally Bunion and Lahinch. They have come to fruition as championship settings for the game. Between them is a third course - Doonbeg - with a story of its own. Doonbeg's storied seaside dunes were identified by the fathers of Lahinch as early as 1892. Officers of the Scottish Black Watch Regiment, they had searched far and wide for Ireland's perfect coastal site. As legend has it, this dramatic Links Land at Doonbeg was their first choice, but Lahinch was closer to transportation and rail service. Because of 19th century economics, Doonbeg's time would be delayed for another 100 years'. For further details on website addresses, please ask us.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Guest Book: (Outstanding) Jenn Clavert, Ada Ohio USA, This is a fabulous little cottage, my husband and I stayed in for the first week of our honeymoon. The Irish caretaker waited until we arrived, explained the cottage's ins and outs. The view of the rolling fields and ocean from the master bedroom was spectacular. We had plenty of heating and plenty of hot water - the washing machine was a great convenience! We burned sod bricks in the fireplace for romantic evenings in front of the fire. The picture does not lie - the greens and blues of Ireland are gorgeous and the cottage feels tucked away, but not isolated. The location was a bit out of the way, but for those wanting to slow down and get away, this was not an obstacle - what a great homebase for exploring the most beautiful part of an already spectacular country.

Overall rating - Outstading BB USA. My cousin and I spent a lovely week at the 'Cozy Cottage' and left regretfully. It was perfect..so perfect that we wanted to
