Set in a private and secluded gated Courtyard, this is one of two identical homes. It has four stories. The living areas are all located on the ground floor and the bedrooms are spread over the top three floors. The kitchen and dining area are warm and cosy and bright. This room stretches from the front right through to the back of the building. The dining table is solid oak and can seat up to 10 people. There is a wood burning stove alongside the table so it is a lovely place to gather in the evening and linger over a meal or share some time together. The kitchen is very well equipped and has some of the original features of the house on display. It has all the appliances you will need along with crockery, glassware, cutlery and cooking equipment. It is a kitchen that was made to be used. There is a separate large utility room with a washing machine and dryer. There is also a guest toilet downstairs. The sitting room is comfortable and cosy and features a wood burning stove along with a supply of timber for your stay. This room has a TV and relaxing couches and armchairs – the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the County of Clare.Wifi is avaiable free of charge to our guests. There are eight bedrooms in all and each of them is ensuite. There are three king bedrooms on both the second and third floors (so 6 king bedrooms in all) and the 4th floor has one room with two single beds and the other with a double bed – ideal for children which share a bathroom between. Two of the king bedrooms have a small sitting area and TV. There is a beautiful stand-alone bath on each of the floors – a real treat to enjoy during your stay. Although there are 8 bedrooms, we have set the ideal number of people to 12 as that is the number that could most comfortably stay. Larger groups could also rent the adjoining almost identical house alongside. The Courtyard is shared among the houses and offers plenty of parking right outside your door. At night time the houses are lit up spectacularly. To the rear is the beautifully landscaped shared walled garden area. Filled with flowers and seating here and there, this would be a wonderful place to escape with a good book or newspaper.  For larger groups, the Straw House onsite can be reserved for private dining or for a get-together. Please enquire on booking. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free internet ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 8 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 8 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 4,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78500000/78492800/78492716/19138f83.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautifully restored soldier's barracks to sleep 10 people Clarecastle - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor space - Parking available 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=78492716&PinnedHotelID=78492716&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/45000000/44820000/44817500/44817453/da5bfd81.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ardboula House - Georgian Farmhouse from the 18th century Tulla - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 9.6 Exceptional 27 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=44817453&PinnedHotelID=44817453&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90770000/90761100/90761052/87049eb7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ennis, 4 minute walk to Downtown Ennis - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 31 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=90761052&PinnedHotelID=90761052&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34040000/34032200/34032128/99f2c4ed.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Family Retreat With Panoramic Lake View And Large Front And Back Gardens Newmarket-On-Fergus - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 98 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=34032128&PinnedHotelID=34032128&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32570000/32562600/32562501/c6687770.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Eden Cottage Countryside Retreat Ennis - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 57 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=32562501&PinnedHotelID=32562501&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78500000/78492800/78492722/3772994c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### perfect for two people Clarecastle - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Parking available 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=78492722&PinnedHotelID=78492722&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Iron/ironing board, WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118360000/118359200/118359165/1c16b02f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Drumquin Accommodation Room 5 Tiermaclane CA $221 CA $251 total includes taxes & fees Oct 12 - Oct 13 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-12&endDate=2025-10-13&selected=118359165&PinnedHotelID=118359165&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103800000/103798300/103798216/w903h683x60y0-a3496f9b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Gated Home, 5 bed rms/ensuite, sleeps ten.
