It's not surprising to read the other reviews and see that others have enjoyed Doolin Cottage as much as we did. It's all true. Carol is a wonderful lady and we also felt like we said goodbye to a friend when we left. Every other place we stayed after we left there never held a candle to Carol's hospitality, warmth and her fabulous breakfast! Her recommendations about attractions, shopping, how to save money, etc. were spot on. She has other family members at local pubs and shops who were also just as delightful. Look for the other Carol, Carol's niece, the bartender at McDermott's pub. What a hoot!

the location, staff, breakfast and accommodations are perfect to enjoy the beautiful village of Doolin- we would stay here again in a heartbeat. We were in walking distance to great pubs and restaurants and the small town feel was refreshing after a few days in Dublin- will be back!

From the time your arrive Carol makes you feel like a family member. The location is perfect, the facilities clean and efficient, and the breakfast great. Doolin Cottage set the mood for our wonderful two week tour of Ireland. Carol is a great hostess and will make your stay memorable.
