About this property
Sea Mist, Idyllic Setting overlooking the Atlantic Ocean
A beautiful home overlooking Doolin and the Aran Islands with Doonagore Castle close by, welcomes you to the “Wild Atlantic Way”
Located in a cul-de-sac of five houses, traffic is at a minimum and the only sounds being heard are the soft mooing of cows in the adjoining fields and the breaking of Atlantic waves on the shore below.
The views from the house are spectacular, sea and sky, with amazing sunsets over the Aran Islands and Galway Bay.
The house is a stylish cottage conversion designed by the owner, a well- known interior designer, whose family have long established roots in Co.Clare.
The theme of the interior is in keeping with the landscape, reflecting the colours from the rural setting outside. Soft off white walls with oak floors throughout the house creates an atmosphere of relaxed contemporary living.
Over 2800 square feet in size, on three quarters of an acre of manicured gardens, the house amply caters for seven people, both in space and luxury.
It comprises of four large double bedrooms, two of which are on the ground floor with views to the sea. Both have ensuite bathrooms, beautifully appointed with stone tiling and mirrored walls to reflect light. One of the ensuites is a "wet room" suitable for the elderly or those with limited mobility.
The main bathroom, also located on the ground floor, is equipped with bath and shower, and is finished to the highest standard. As with all bathrooms it has underfloor heating.
Kitchen, dining and seating area join seamlessly together to form a central space and are beautifully appointed with large comfortable sofas, soft lighting, rugs and paintings. A wood burning fire in the main living area acts as a focal point and adds to the sense of warmth and cosiness.
Large picturesque windows which line the rear of the house, brings light and sunshine into the open plan living area and reflect the beautiful views around.
Sea Mist has been featured in two prestigious interior design magazines, House Beautiful in May 2015 and Home Interiors and Living in October 2015
If you wish to experience Irish life at it’s best, Sea Mist is the ideal location.

Thank you SO much Lorrie for your lovely review.
We were delighted to learn that you enjoyed your stay in Sea Mist
Sea Mist ..what a gem ..it is the most stunning property,beautifully situated on the cliff overlooking the ocean.The house was extremely well appointed and spacious with elegant decor and lovely outdoor space.Our whole family were so impressed we would love an opportunity to return.
Incredible views walking distance from Doolin (uphill!). Stayed for a wedding, absolutely stunning property inside and out. If you're staying in Doolin, stay here!
We came to Doolin for a wedding and could not have asked for a better place to stay. It was clean, stocked perfectly with a great amount of space. We felt like we were in a movie. The host communicated in a timely fashion, leaving nothing unanswered. Doolin (and surrounding towns) are quaint with a great selection of things to do and eat. Thank you for a perfect trip. We WILL be back.
My wife and I spent a week at Sea Mist cottage in Doolin. The house is very comfortable and the Doolin area is quite amazing in terms of restaurants, pubs and spectacular scenery. The pictures of the house and views really can’t do justice to how beautiful it is. I would highly recommend this property.
The views were amazing from this house. If you want to feel part of what makes the coast of County Clare special this house did it for our family. The house itself was very functional and designed perfectly for the needs of a family vacation. We would 100% recommend it to others.

This is an absolutely exquisite property with the most amazing view! The house is spacious and lovely, with every amenity you would need. The town is just a drive down a hill. Absolutely, perfect in every way! Can’t wait to return!!
Absolutely picture perfect. Literally! The home was well maintained and well stocked with the necessities. The view and location was exactly what we were looking for and towards in our Irish vacation. We would love to stay there again on our next trip to Ireland exploring the sights and people of this lovely country.
House, gardens, most furnishings are lovely. Perhaps starting to need a bit of TLC ie kitchen organization, some wonky light fixtures etc.
Stunning views as promised, laneway in to house is quite rough.
Doolin itself is charming, spread out over quite an area and a steep walk down and back to the house.
Some great restaurants - our favourite was Glas.
This was our second time booking this property, and the first time staying during the summer. Last time we enjoyed a week here during the winter and both times have been spectacular. Definitely more to do in the summer though. We loved the close access to the Doolin ferry and all the shops and restaurants. This is a great location for driving to visit the rest of Clare on easy day trips as well. Our group had 5 adults and the house was spacious and comfortable.
We loved everything about the Sea Mist cottage. The location was unbeatable (4-5 minutes from downtown Doolin), unbelievable views (over looking the great Atlantic) and the layout of the house was superb. The main living space was separated from the bedrooms which was awesome for a large group (minimize noise for people sleeping). The bedrooms were incredibly comfy and bathrooms spacious. The entire property was newly renovated and appointed with very nice materials/fixtures. Highly recommend.
The home is spacious and beautifully appointed with spectacular views of the North Atlantic. We were also delighted to discover that we had a castle as a neighbor! We enjoyed the tranquil setting and were provided with everything we needed. Both the host and the manager were very responsive and gracious. We enjoyed the traditional music in Doolin and the numerous restaurants/pubs and all right next to the cliffs of Moher!
The Seamist home made our first trip to Ireland a completely gorgeous experience!
From the house we enjoyed the views of the ocean and the lush green scape.
Upon entering the house we were in awe of the large size and the beautiful decor.
We had more than enough space for our family of 5 adults.
The house had all the comforts and supplies we needed so we were truly able to relax.
And the Doolin area was everything we hoped for! We were able to travel to the Aran islands and Cliffs of Moher with ease. O’Connors pub was our favorite nearby restaurant and nightly hangout.
We hope to visit this home again in the near future!

About the host
Hosted by Pat O'Donoghue
Why they chose this property
We bought the old cottage in 2005 and proceeded to convert it into what it is today. The reason why we did this was because my father in law came for County Clare and my wife spent all her holidays in this very special and spiritual area.
What makes this property unique
The property was an old derelict cottage located on a quiet cul-de-sac with spectacular views all round.
Named Sea Mist, it is situated on the southern side of the famous Cliffs of Moher, and 2 km from the village of Doolin known worldwide as the cradle of traditional Irish music.
The Burren, one of the largest exposed limestone areas in Europe, is within easy reach of the house and is a haven for walkers and anyone interested in nature.
We fell in love with the cottage and it's beautiful location, as soon as we came across it.
We continue to enjoy it with our friends and family, as indeed, we know you will.
