  • We stayed there at then end of april into may of 08. This was my third time in Ireland. When we arrived the view alone made me tear up a bit and thats alot for a fourty something year old man. We had three rainbows, cows, horses, goats all around us. I had a converstaion with one cow. It was just outside my bedroom window and we mooded back and forth for twenty minutes. There is a red cat that came to me one night. Jumped into my room, played for awhile and left. Great price as well. More than expected!!!! Get to the Doolin cave. (lots of stairs)I really cant's say enough about this place. Do yourself a favor and stay at this place. Tell the cows I said moo. Feed the gray horse a carrot or two. Be nice to the cat if you see it. Bring a good camera!

  • Creig Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. The remoteness of its surroundings only adds to its natural beauty and distinct charm. We spent a cool, windswept week here in April, and could not have had a better time. The view was our chief pleasure -- a glorious, ever-changing vista ranging from terraced cliffs on one side across the bright gray stone of the burren and down to the beckoning sea sea below. Photographs can only hint at its beauty; I can think of nothing quite comparable. The cottage itself offers a fine accommodation: comfortable furnishings, modern appliances, and more than a few places to curl up with a good book. Between the comforts of the house and the convenience of the walking trails (they literally run past your front door), one could pass a fruitful week here without visiting any other towns. But there is much else to see -- the coast road that winds through Fanore and Ballyvaughn, trad music in Doolin an Kilfenora, the Cliffs of Moher, the storefronts of Lisdoonvarna and Ennistymon ... historic castles, crypts, moats, boats, and bells ... the list goes on and on. Needless to say, we recommend it highly.
