Maison de famille luxueuse avec des vues spectaculaires à proximité des commerces, des pubs et des plages

We spent almost a month at this home and it fit our needs perfectly! It was convenient to all the places that we wanted to be in County Clare and for where we wanted to travel. The owner and the caretaker responded right away when there was a boiler issue, and a plumber was called in to replace the switch. The house, bathrooms, and the "snug" were great and comfortable. The kitchen and its fixtures were excellent as we did cook in a lot! We also loved the community--being there as long as we were we did get to know some of the community residents! We loved our visit to Ireland, reconnected with a lot of family and will return! We would highly recommend this lovely home!

We were a group of 7 and we all thought it was one of the nicest holiday homes we had stayed in. We stayed in July so probably mid-season, and therefore there were a few wear and tear issues which needed fixing e.g. the lower shelf over the tv was unstable, the pins of the plug of one of the living-room lamps were bent, a loose loo seat. However the upstairs double room was definitely disappointing in that there was nowhere to hang clothes - just a lovely big chest of drawers - and everybody brings something that needs hanging. The directions to the house were good - follow them, don't satnav it as we were taken to the wrong house. The Caretaker was wonderfully helpful and very friendly. In spite of the niggles we would like to stay there again

Wir (3 Erwachsene und 2 Jugendliche) hatten das Haus für zwei Wochen (23/06/18 bis 07/07/18) gemietet und hatten wirklich einen wunderbaren, entspannten Urlaub.

Die Verwalterin Aga hat uns ausgesprochen nett empfangen und uns alles erklärt, z.B. wie man alles an- und ausschaltet und wo man den nächsten ( richtigen :-) ) Supermarkt findet.

Das Haus ist sehr großzügig und gut ausgestattet. Die Küche ist sehr schön und bietet alles, was man so benötigt. Die Schlafzimmer sind gemütlich eingerichtet und zwei der Zimmer haben jeweils ein eigenes Bad.

Das Haus ist in einer sehr ruhigen Umgebung und genau richtig, wenn man wirklich abschalten will. Zum einem kleinen Laden oder zum nächsten Restaurant in Quilty braucht man zu Fuß etwa 25 Minuten. Der nächste Strand ist 15 Minuten entfernt.

Leider gibt es in der direkten Nähe keine Wege auf denen man joggen könnte aber man kann durch am Straßenrand joggen. Es gibt nur wenig Verkehr und man kann morgens eine Stunde joggen und sieht nur drei Autos. Die Autofahrer sind auch sehr rücksichtsvoll und höflich. Überhaupt sind alle Leute ausgesprochen höflich und man hört immer ein freundliches „Wie geht’s...“ .

We (3 adults and 2 teenagers) had rented the house for two weeks (23/06/18 to 07/07/18) and really had a wonderful, relaxing holiday.

The manager Aga received us very nicely and explained us everything, e.g. how to turn on / off everything and where to find the nearest ( real :-) ) supermarket.

The house is very spacious and well equipped. The kitchen is very nice and has everything you need. The bedrooms are comfortably furnished and two of the rooms have their own bathroom.

The house is in a very quiet environment and just right if you really want to relax. It takes about 25 minutes to walk to a small shop or the nearest restaurant in Quilty. The next beach is 15 minutes away. Unfortunately, there are no trails in the immediate vicinity where you could jog but you can jog by the roadside. There is only little traffic and you can jog for an hour in the morning and see only three cars. The drivers are very considerate and polite. After all, all the Irish people are very polite and you always hear a friendly "How are you ...".

A lovely base for touring around the Wild Atlantic Way. Mostly it was a comfortable house, and I would return, but it would get 5 stars if a few maintenance issues were dealt with and a few home comforts were included ( soap in all bathrooms , a pint of milk for late arrivals , a welcome note left for instance).Having heating oil at home in the U.K. I felt the oil is rather overpriced too.

We found the home to be very lovely, and that is where it ends. There was a horrific toilet issue from the moment we arrived. The Property Manager (PM) was made aware of the non-flushing toilets during the initial inspection. She commented that we may have to flush twice waiting in between for the water to fill in the tank which can be slow. So that is what we tried, it was no better. Toilets remain full for hours as we tried to flush deposits away. In the meantime, you can imagine the smell in the house was unbearable. We contacted the PM who again said “others had no problem”. Well, seriously WHAT does that mean to me as we are confronted with this issue? After several attempts to rectify the problem with the PM and the landowner he finally sent a plumber. One of us was in the house and was told by the plumber that he never saw a problem like this before. He did raise the water level in the tank and on the last day of the stay we finally had a working toilet.

NO appropriation was made for this disgusting situation by the landowner. Even when expressly asked. We are American’s we have been using toilets all our lives and know how to flush a toilet. Clearly there is an issue with the plumbing and not a toilet training issue. We also ran into issues with the neighbor yelling and banging on our door as they were in the middle of a family fist fight. We made the PM aware of the incident and she told us that is the landowners relatives!!

Be aware, you get one towel per person for 9 days, not one tissue in the house, in the “well appointed kitchen” there are old rusty pots, no salt shakers, no drip coffee pot and 6 coffee pods that are a unique brand, I didn’t know where to find. If you are traveling from another country this makes the stay expensive and wasteful as you spend time gathering simple supplies. In addition there is not ONE electrical converter in the house, so bring your own.

The scenery is nice the house could have worked well for 4 adults, it is not close to a beach, you must drive, it is a long drive to almost anyplace. I am not sure what you do in a situation like this or who you complain to at HOME AWAY, clearly the Landowner is not concerned.
