Beautiful property at an amazing location. Loved sitting in the sunroom and watching the sun rise and set over the water. Location is quiet and peaceful but perfectly located to see many sights. The owner was accommodating and very communicative. Couldn’t ask for a more idyllic stay.

The conservatory with ocean views is the star of the show. It was lovely to sit and watch the ocean and the birds. It must be amazing in the summer. There's plenty of kitchen equipment. A well-stocked convenience store is a 10-minute walk away. The house is a great base for visiting County Clare. There are lots of attractions nearby. SatNav does better on the bigger roads in the area. Good communication with the hosts. We would stay here again.

We had a lovely few days at Shorehaven. Communication from Mike and Tina was excellent, and they made us extremely welcome. Accommodation was comfortable and a lot of thought had gone into what was provided for us - cooking was easy. The view from the conservatory was probably the highlight!

Better than advertised!

At high tide, prepare to feel as though you're on the bow of a boat. Photos cannot capture how close you are to the water. And the sunsets....!!! The cottage is well appointed, beds comfortable, and the spacious solarium and two outside gathering spaces have endless views that include the Cliffs of Moher. This site is perfectly located in County Clare which is riddled with interesting sites, great food, and lovely towns all within an hour's drive. If all that isn't enough, sweeter hosts couldn't be had. Mike & Tina met our every need with the charm and kindness that Irish citizens are famed for. We can't wait to come back for another stay and to visit with our new friends.

Why they chose this property

Quiet and peaceful on the village outskirts, this cottage, backing onto the Atlantic Ocean with its ever-changing moods, is a fully equipped 3 bedroom property, perfect for your stay. Set 500 meters from Quilty village on the Wild Atlantic Way, mid-way between the Burren landscape and the Eden Tourist Award-winning 'Loop Head', there are plenty day trips for you to enjoy if you can drag yourself away from Shorehaven's peace and tranquility.

What makes this property unique

Unrestricted ocean view of the Atlantic with its ever-changing moods and tides. Laze away in one of Shorehaven's hammocks or shoreside seats while lapping waters soothe away your cares.
Your biggest decision of the day could be, 'Will I have another beer...or opt for a glass of wine and some cheese...' :-)
