Anne was delightful and helpful from sending a pin for our map to find the house to checking in with us along the way to help with any potential needs or provide help in making local picks on things to do or places to go. House was clean and bed was comfy, 2 big things when traveling... vrbo needs to update their listing to reflect the electricity pay but it is so minimal that it isn't a big deal, just threw us off when we first arrived and hadn't read it on the vrbo site.... after checking into it further the house independant site does have the info on it... asked about it upon arrival and in true form Anne was helpful and easy to communicate with. Loved our time while we were there and would not hesitate to stay here again if we are in the area. Weather was mild but that is unpredictable anywhere you stay... what you don't always find is a good house and a kind host... don't pass up on staying here and meeting Anne. You won't regret it.

Beautiful and spotlessly clean, and a stone's throw away from the beach. Fairly remote location with a lovely cafe, convenience store, and O'Donohue's Restaurant/Pub grouped together about 2km away. Buy more firewood than you think you'll need if it's chilly and stormy (thank you "hurricane" Amy!) buy wine, post cards, stamps, extra toilet paper, and eggs at the convenience store, Nick is very helpful. Paul at the pub was delightful, and the lovely young woman who owns the cafe makes all creations from scratch (gluten free options too). Our host Anne couldn't have been more attentive and stopped in to make sure we had what we needed.

Anne was a great host and our family thoroughly enjoyed her rustic cottage with the yard and views! We enjoyed seeing the hares and fox(es) in the back meadow, the sunset and view of the ocean. It was so peaceful at night and we enjoyed the peat fire on the cold evenings. Thank you, again!

Four of us spending 2 weeks in Ireland, wanted a base camp in the Burren. This was our choice based on on line presence. Cottage was exactly as presented on line. Welcoming, comfortable, spotless. Perfect for us. The hostess was a wealth of information about places to go. Quick to respond to emails. It was a wonderful ecperience

This lovely rustic cottage was a perfect spot for a 3-generation trip to the beautiful Burren area. Lots of space for kids, parents, and grandparents to sleep and all the amenities needed to take care of little kiddos (kitchen, washing machine, bath, etc).

You can see the ocean from the house and it is in a great location. Many things to see within a few miles. The house is well done and everything is new.

We had a great stay in the cottage despite the storm that came in with Kathleen. The fire place and turf was appreciated to keep the place cozy.

We had a wonderful stay, felt welcome and warmly looked after by Anne at all times. The house is in a quiet location, so we were able to relax very well. We can absolutely confirm the friendliness that the Irish are said to be. Thank you for the wonderful time. We'd love to come back.

We had a very short stay here, had to leave early due to issues at our home. Only issue with the house is the showers, both need attention, low water pressure and downstairs shower head and lead need to be replaced.

We had a wonderful time at Anne and John’s cottage. It’s clean and comfortable, with all the amenities you need. It was an excellent “home base” as was explored Ireland for the first time. Anne was always in communication, even warning us when bad weather was coming. We highly recommend Fanore Holiday Cottages!

Cottage was clean, spacious and well stocked for cooking. Great lighting, heat and very comfortable beds. Anne communicated with timely responses to questions. She is extremely pleasant and knowledgeable about the area. The views of both the Burren landscape and Sea are lovely!!! My husband and I look forward to staying at these cottages again as we love the Burren and felt very much at home in our Cottage. Mary and Ken Vermont, USA

Quiet, peaceful location in Fanore close to hiking trails, mountains and the beach! And cows grazing in the field behind the cottage. Wonderful stay!

10.0 / 10.0

We absolutely loved our stay at Fanore Holiday Cottages, and we cannot wait to return. We spent two full weeks hiking the Burren, going to the beach, taking a trail ride, visiting the islands, watching the calves, and we had fish and chips at the local pub four times! The self-catering accommodation meant the trip was also really affordable and the kitchen has everything one needs to make a good meal. It’s close to Galway for a day out, and there’s plenty to see and do within a reasonable drive. The cottage is massive (almost too big for our little family) but that meant lots of space to stretch out and get quiet time. Anne was very responsive and answered all our questions (and she has great suggestions for everything from activities to groceries). Couldn’t recommend more!

Our four-night stay in the cottage with the yellow door was delightful. Clean, comfortable and convenient, this cottage was ideal for our needs. Anne is one of the most congenial hosts I have met. She made us feel right at home. Plus we enjoyed our conversations with her!

10.0 / 10.0

Thank you Anne for a delightful stay. The cottage was very clean and cozy. O’Donahue’s had an excellent fish fry and the grocery directed us to the best routes. The cottage is very private and perfectly peaceful. The ocean is visible from the bnb and the Barren is directly out the back yard. There is a very good “hiking” trail close. Our cottage was within walking distance to the beach. At the end of a Dead end, it would be perfectly safe for children. We never understood the shower but Anne was at the end of the road to help. I recommend buying paper towels to bring along. Excellent stay, perfect place and perfect host for us. Thanks again Anne.

This cosy cottage was delightful. It was very roomy and accommodated 8 people easily. The kitchen was well equipped and when we arrived it was spotless with a lovely fresh feeling everywhere. Going on the photos on line we did not expect that the house would be as good as it was. Many more up to date images would give a truer picture of how it really is. We were there during a storm with biting, cold rain and we found the house very warm and cosy which was a delight to return to in the evening. Turf was provided for an open fire which created a warm atmosphere for evening games. As to the hostess, she had a lovely easy manner which was so welcoming. She was unobtrusive but we always knew that she was at the end of the road if we needed her. A perfect holiday guardian angel!!!

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. It was so clean! And everything we needed ready to go. Sorry we had to pay you in coins for the electric fee! We had a great time and would recommend the property to anyone.

Paradise on the Wild Atlantic Way

Our family of five stayed here for four nights and could not have fallen more deeply in love with this part of the world. Fanore was a great small town with the nicest people, beautiful scenery and a great beach. Anne was helpful and kind and brought us peat for the fireplace on a cold windy day. We visited Doolin for great food and live Irish music and took a ferry to the Aran Islands to ride bikes around the island. All very cool. My only suggestion for the house would be more comfortable comforters for the beds. But aside from that a HOMERUN!

The property was advertised as non smoking, however, upon arrival we noted an ashtray and were told that smoking was permitted just not in the bedrooms.. We did notice the smell of smoke. Also the kitchen lacked basics such as paper towels, coffee filters. Otherwise the property itself was lovely.

Fanore Holiday Cottage

Fanore Holiday Cottage

The Fanore Holiday Cottage is a clean, comfortable, well equipped vacation home. It is perfectly located to enjoy the Burren, Aran Islands, Doolin, Fanore beach and Cliffs of Moher among other County Clare sights. There are many pubs with traditional Irish music and excellent restaurants nearby. The property owner is available, friendly and helpful. We could see the Aran Islands, Galway Bay and Connemara mountains from the our vacation home. Certainly would return to this holiday cottage in Fanore.

Extremely well-kept cottage close to the ocean close to the Burrnne. Anne was a joy, we are both girls scouts and kindred spirits. She was a great help in knowing what to see and how to get to places. She also gives tours to the top of her mountain. This cottage is in a location that makes it a total vacation package.

A chatming Irish cottage in a lovely area of Ireland!

A chatming Irish cottage in a lovely area of Ireland!

Four of us stayed in this holiday cottage near the beach and the "Wild Atlantic Way" on the west coast of Ireland. We were delighted with the charm of this place, from the colorful "Dutch Door" that greets you when you arrive, to the beautifully finished wood interior and floors. Even the walls were finished so that you felt like you were truly in an Irish cottage! The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay, although we had a bit of a problem figuring out the washer/dryer combination. (I am afraid we Americans fall a bit short of understanding when it comes to European appliances!) One of the highlights was the peat fire we enjoyed in the fireplace, thanks to our hosts providing the peat and instructions necessary to get it going. The beds were very comfortable, and the entire house was spotless. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay near the Burren! Although there are three cottages on the property, each cottage is very private and separate from the others. It is clear that much careful thought went into the design and location of Fanore Holiday Cottages. Anne met us shortly after our arrival with information about local shops and places to eat and suggestions of places to visit in the area. She recommended O'Donahue's pub for traditional pub food -- an excellent suggestion. Can't beat fish and chips made with fish caught by local fishermen! The Cliffs of Moher are a short drive from Fanore, and we witnessed a spectacular sunset from the nearby beach. Thanks, Anne and John, for a wonderful stay. Hopefully we will return again -- for a longer stay.

This beautifully maintained house was so great for my husband and me. It was in the perfect location to explore the Burren and the amazing coastline, and Anne was a truly lovely host. I highly recommend this delightful cottage. Everything you could need to cook and relax after a day of hiking was provided. And, Anne was available to answer our questions and provide suggestions for our explorations in the area.

This cottage was a delightful, seaside location for our extended family of seven. Anne was a a wonderful hostess, who gave us great information about the area, and who provided a starter log and peat for a fire our first night. Wonderful hiking nearby, both down to the nearby beach and up into the Burren region hills overlooking the property. We would definitely stay here again!
