Absolutely perfect lodging for our trip to Ireland
We spent 5 nights at the thatched cottage to use as a home base for day trips to Southern Ireland. It was like stepping back in time but with modern conveniences!! The large farm was peaceful and so much fun to explore. The property was close to Adare for stores and restaurants but yet so private. We did love being visited very day by the two dogs!! Lastly, David was so responsive, helpful and a pleasure to handle everything during the rental. We highly recommend this property.

Charming cottage in pastoral setting
Accessed by a rural lane, the traditional thatched-roof cottage where we stayed near Adare is full of authenticity and charm, and surrounded by a cottage garden with a sunny terrace, roses and arbors. We took walks along the farm lanes, carpeted with daisies and bordered with white flowering hawthorn hedges and cow parsley, Quite idyllic, and well situated for visiting ancient stone circles, ruined priories, and the bustling historic town of Adare. Our hosts were welcoming and helpful. We had a wonderful time!

Our favorite location in Ireland BY FAR. Already planning to stay here again if/when we return to Ireland. Our kids loved the dogs and cattle, my husband and I loved the authenticity of the cottage, the high water pressure in the shower, and the quiet location.

Magical!
The grounds are breathtaking. The host and their two dogs were wonderful. This is a very old cottage and needs some updating like new furniture and mattresses. The beds are not comfortable, but our stay was magical! The area, the garden and the people made this a wonderful family vacation that we will remember forever!

Wonderful stay
Our stay at the cottage was a real delight. The farm atmosphere was a great change from town life. The cottage is located near Adare in County Limerick, so a trip to town was just minutes away. The area is beautiful and there are many pubs, restaurants, and attractions. We will definitely stay again if we come back this way

Incredible cottage
This cozy cottage was so welcoming! We loved how meticulously well looked after this historic space was. All the thick walls and comfortable beds made for a great night's rest. We enjoyed visiting in the sitting area with tea and the home-made scones. Our hosts were very hospitable.

My Ireland Dream
When planning this trip one of my goals was to stay in a thatched cottage. This was perfection. From the greeting we received from the owning family, to the wonderful homey decor, to the cows in the pastures and Jake and Rollie the corgis it was the ideal setting. Hope so much to be able to return at some point.

Enchanting Cottage
This wonderful 300 year old cottage is more even more beautiful and charming than it appears in the photos. My family loved our stay: snuggled up on a rainy day inside in front of the fire, sitting in the stunning back garden, eating meals prepared in the modern (but tight) kitchen, and wandering around the lovely farm. Joan and David were very welcoming, and they immediately replied to any queries.

Lovely Irish Cottage
Lovely Irish Cottage in Adare. My sister, nephew and I always wanted to stay in a cottage Adare. My sister and I were born in Limerick. This was a perfect location to visit the family and take some road trips. There is a hotel across the road with two great restaurants. Joan and DAVID were so accommodating. The cottage was adorable and there was lots of open space on the farm to roam around and see the animals.I look forward to staying there again in the future. Thank you Joan and David!

Idyllic stay in a thatched cottage near Adare Co Limerick in beautiful Irish countryside
Well restored thatched cottage Away from the road and on a farm so very safe Well decorated and Joan is an artist so lots of paintings in the cottage Very clean and with all the 2020 amenities in a classic rural setting - impossible to have everything perfect but you take care of the cottage and it will take care of you Very peaceful. Great for all ages but especially older people and young kids . 3 double beds and I large single over 3 rooms with two showers units and a nice sitting area. Close to friendly hotel for food, drunk and the gym If you must. Plenty of walks 6 Km to Adare and Limerick but hardly ever left the place. It was just what was needed Joan Mick and their son, David Vevy helpful and nothing is a problem Will hopefully be back Leo Stassen

Beautiful Irish cottage in a quiet setting and close to the village of Adare.( “the prettiest village in Ireland”). Central location making travel to many of the famous attractions in Southern Ireland very accessible. The owners were so helpful and Joan, Michael and David made our first trip to Ireland a truly memorable one. Hope to come back soon and stay in the Adare Irish cottages.

Amazing Experience
Cottage was clean, well appointed, and in a great location. Owners were responsive and helpful. While we had absolutely no problems or issues, I am sure that Joan and Micheal would have taken care of anything immediately. Our teenage daughters loved the WiFi and talking to the cows. The on site washer and dryer allowed us to pack way lighter than usual for a week long trip. Huge plus. We would stay again in a heartbeat.
