Description
Kilkee 5.9 miles.
This lovely single-storey property overlooks the Shannon Estuary in the townland of Newton East, near Kilkee in County Clare.
The property is surrounded by countryside, with views of the sea in the distance, and has an old country style, comfortably accommodating a family or group of five looking to explore County Clare and western Ireland.
The property is enclosed by a short stone wall and has lots of exterior space, including ample off-road parking.
Heading to the back entrance of the property, you will discover the well-equipped, recently renovated kitchen, with ample amenities to aid you during your stay, including a dishwasher, cooker and washing machine.
Onto the living/dining room, which features a fantastic wood-panelled ceiling and a lovely dresser filled with crockery, along with dining seating for six, so you can join together to enjoy meals and make plans for your stay, while the solid fuel stove provides a warm, homely feel and the sofa offers a comfortable spot to relax in, while enjoying some music on the CD Player.
The main sitting room is a vibrant yellow colour, with a grey sofa and armchairs, complimenting the colour scheme well, plus a delightful original fireplace housing an open fire, a TV to entertain and wood panelling on the ceiling.
The property has three bedrooms; two doubles, one of which has bay windows at either side providing lots of light and lovely surrounding views and a quirky bedside lamp shaped like a camera, while the other has a beautiful original panelled ceiling and feature fireplace, along with a tastefully decorated single bedroom, ideal for a child.
The modern tiled bathroom with a walk-in electric shower completes the layout.
Outside, there is a lawn area at the side of the property and it the front, you will find a south-facing patio garden, a real sun trap where you can sit at the outdoor table and enjoy a morning coffee or an alfresco lunch and admire your peaceful surroundings and distant coastal views.
The seaside town of Kilkee is just under six miles away, overlooking a mile-long horseshoe-shaped bay with a lovely Blue Flag awarded sandy beach, protected from the sometimes harsh Atlantic conditions by the Duggerna Reef and is considered to be the safest bathing place in Ireland.
Walkers will enjoy the Cliff Walk Kilkee, an 8km circular walk along the cliff tops that takes in the stunning coastline.
Waterworld is an all-weather family attraction, with an indoor water bubble pool, lazy river ride and more, while the 18-hole championship golf course provides a scenic backdrop for a round of golf, and there is a small selection of restaurants, showcasing locally caught fish and shellfish, if you feel like dining out.
Wildlife lovers should venture to Carrigaholt, where you can enjoy watching dolphins swim by, go birdwatching, horse riding, sailing and scuba diving.
There is so much to love about this area of Ireland, and Newtown East is the perfect retreat to return to at the end of each adventure-filled day.

What guests are saying
Mary keeps a wonderful cottage in a beautiful location.
My family of four were very comfortable there during our stay. Mary and Thomas were great hosts and went out of their way to help us when we had car trouble. We would highly recommend them and their accommodation.
Mary was a fabulous host, loved the freshly baked buns she made for us.
We missed Holly her 8 month old pup, who befriended us and welcomed us back each day to the house. We loved the peaceful surroundings. Would highly recommend for a break away from it all.
We had a fantastic week in the cottage with our young family.
It was very spacious both inside and out. It had everything we could possibly need. The location was beautiful also and served as a perfect base for us to explore many of the attractions County Clare has to offer. It is rural and quiet. It was perfect for us to sit out and enjoy the weather in the evenings but also only a short drive from Kilkee in one direction which has so much to offer. And also Kilrush in the other direction which also has lots of amenities, including a Tesco superstore. Our host Mary greeted us upon arrival and made us feel very welcome, ensuring that we had everything we needed for our stay. We would strongly recommend it.
