The house is just gorgeous, so spacious and light, and the arrangement of rooms was just what we needed. Also, the location and views are fabulous, it was so easy with our dog, we will definitely go back to Doleen Quay House if we get the chance !

A wonderful home right on a pretty much private beach. Aine is such a wonderful host. We were greeted with fresh fruit, cheese, scones, basil, EVO, and a smile. The home is extremely spacious for families traveling. You could easily have multiple family units traveling together. The beach is wonderful for exploring, swimming, and relaxing. There is easy access to Clifden for shopping and food. In the small town of Ballyconneely, Keoghs offers a wonderful place to dine and for your kids to let off steam. This is only 1km away, so super convenient. There is also a small market to provide all your essentials. Would be nice to have an outdoor couch or lounge chair
