Sep 2022Wr loved our stay at Soheen and fully enjoyed the waterside location. Wr are twice at Barrtra’s and enjoyed a fire on two rainy days. What a comfortable well-loved family home we felt lucky to experience.

Oct 2019We stayed at this house for 3 nights and enjoyed it immensely. The house is beautiful, spacious and very close to the sea. The owners left lots of suggestions and tips of things to do. The cliffs of Moher and the burren are easy to get to. We would definitely stay here again.

Oct 2021We live next door, just rented this place out for a few extra rooms for a family gathering. Everything was perfect. Clean, warm, easy to check in and out... Would definitely recommend.

Aug 2020We had a wonderful week at Joan and Brian’s house in Lahinch. The house was warm, spacious and well equipped with all we could need for our stay. Our 3 children had lots of space to play on the huge lawn which surrounds the house and loved the quiet walk down to the seafront from the house where there were rock pools for exploring, and shells and stones to collect. We also swam off the rocks there which was lovely.
The house is perfectly situated for exploring county Clare. Lahinch beach is just a short hop away as is the beach at Spanish point. We made trips to the cliffs of Moher, Doolin and the Burren which are all easily accessible from the house.
We had a fantastic holiday and had the weather on our side. We’d gladly return!

Sep 2020We had a great time in West Clare at Joan and Brian's house. The house is very large and spacious with a good layout for sleeping and socializing (we couldn't hear each other when we closed the doors between the two areas, which was great for those wanting to nap or sleep while others stayed up). The kitchen/dining area is very large and airy with lots of windows allowing for loads of natural light. The garden and lawn is very large and well maintained and made for a great spot to watch the sunset each evening. The house is located between Lehinch and Spanish Point making it easy to get to both or pretty much any other attraction in Clare. You do need a car though, as there isn't anything in a walkable distance, but the rural location adds to the charm. There were several farm animals around the area (chickens, cows, and two very cute and friendly neighborhood dogs which would come over for a belly rub each morning). It's very peaceful and quiet all the time and we all felt completely relaxed and at home here. The owners were very communicative on email and text and flexible when we had a request. The only complaints we have are minor - the broadband/wifi isn't great if multiple devices are using it at the same time, and we could have used more towels (we were only given 3 towels for 3 people for 3 nights and could have used a few spare ones), and it would've been great to have a few beach towels available too. But everything else we could want (spices, soap, laundry detergent, etc) was stocked and plentiful. We would highly recommend booking here and are planning to come back in the near future. We've stayed at several homes and hotels in the area (Lehinch, Liscanoor, Doolin) and this has by far been our favorite. This property is fantastic and provides a real West Clare holiday experience. Thank you Joan and Brian and hope to stay at your home again.

Apr 2022This is one of the best homes I've ever rented, anywhere. It was the ideal place to spend the first leg of our Ireland trip. The listing is accurate, but somehow I didn't realize how absolutely lovely the setting is - it's down a quiet lane in a small community, surrounded by farmland, and set up on a hill so you can see and hear the ocean from all around the property and most of the rooms. We laid in the plush grass and listened to the waves and the intermittent mooing of the nearby cows. You can walk to the end of the road to the beach, and there's a great restaurant just up the hill. Friendly local dogs dropped by for visits, which my kids loved. And on a clear night the stars are magical.The house itself is spacious and my family of 5 was so comfortable here. The kids enjoyed the bunk bed room and there was a separate room for my baby to sleep in. The kitchen is big and BRIGHT with everything you need to cook a nice meal or just bring in, as we did. It's also so cozy - I loved the couches in the kitchen and the sitting room/den where we built fires. This feels like a cherished family home and not just a rental, and that was a wonderful thing to experience. The location is also really perfect - Lahinch is truly adorable surfer town with great food, cute shops (my kids loved the book store), and an overall fun vibe. And it's a short drive to the spectacular Cliffs of Moher. Lahinch wasn't on my radar, and I was initially looking for house rentals closer to the Cliffs. I'm so glad I came upon this listing, because the location was truly ideal.And finally, Brian was an excellent host - quickly responsive with any questions that came up, left clear instructions for everything, and just seemed like a nice person. He even arranged for us to have some amazing weather in April :)I wish we could have stayed for a month! If this home is available for your dates, book it.

Aug 2022This is a wonderful big house with a nice spacious garden area! Unfortunately there are cameras located around the house and two are even inside the house - one in the kitchen/dining area, the other is monitoring the living room and the way to the bathroom! In every room there is also a motion detector and in combination with all the family members looking from the many pictures on the wall we did not feel home.The property listing does not tell about the very weak internet connection and additional cost above 1GB/day. Well, in our case it was even not working for all 3 days. There was no real support but at least we got a refund for the extra charges using mobile phone data.

Sep 2021This is a lovely, spacious house in a convenient location for Lahinch, Spanish Point, The Burren, the Cliffs of Moher and more. The kitchen/breakfast room is large and well equipped and the living room is very comfortably furnished with sofas and armchairs. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and there was plenty of room for our family of 2 adults and 3 boys. The gardens are well kept with room for the boys to kick a ball and the adults to enjoy the stunning view with a glass of wine. Two tips - A car is essential to make the most of the local attractions. Barrtra is an excellent restaurant only 2 minutes walk from the house but book well in advance of your stay.

Aug 2019This beautiful spacious home had everything we needed for our week-long holiday in the Lahinch region. Master bedroom with ensuite, huge kitchen that was also cozy to relax in and play cards with the kids, wide fenced-in yard (with a couple of dog visitors from neighboring homes who were happy to see our kids). It was also possible to walk down the road to stroll along a secluded rocky beach. The area is just breathtaking, it is a must-see (if you can find it, hahaha! it is really difficult to find our way in Lahinch, where there seems to be no addresses)! The hosts were very responsive and managed to get some electrical issues sorted out very quickly. Don't hesitate to book this cottage!

Sep 2019Really enjoyed the house and the region. Owners were easy to communicate with. Many beds for resting - loved that there was one room more for the kids. Had a fully stocked kitchen. Washer was inside, but drier was outside - it worked out. Loved our walks down to the beach and exploring.

Sep 2019One of the best hosts we have experienced, and we do travel using VRBO and Home away quite a lot. Joan and Brian were thorough in there descriptions, and the house was immaculate and well ordered. The location was superb, if you prefer peace and quiet, yet a short drive to the action In Lahinch. We heard plenty of trad music, which we love, in nearby Milltown Malbay, as well as our favorite Doolin. A wonderful stay!
