This is the 2nd time I have stayed in this lovely, historic Doolin farmhouse. Our family of 7 had plenty of room in the house. The views of the ocean and Doonagore castle are spectacular! We also enjoyed watching the cattle on the farm. Will definitely return if we get back to Doolin.

What a fantastic place to stay. The location was remarkable; the owners couldn’t be better; the house was roomy, well-appointed, very comfortable, and an easy walk to all local attractions. We’ve stayed in a number of vrbo houses and this is the best!

Castleview House - Doolin Ireland

The house is absolutely amazing and the location has stunning views. There were 8 of us and the layout of the house was perfect. We had the space we needed so that we didn't feel crowded and yet a living room to meet in the evenings. Everything was well stocked and Sally added personal touches by doing some shopping for us. Lovely town and the people are so welcoming. I'd stay here again. LOVE this home.
