Doolin View B&B

Everything was perfect. We started with a warm welcome from Sandy, which was lovely and so nice during our stay. The place has one of the best views in the city. The decoration is absolutely beautiful, cozy and confortable. Bed was confortable and bathroom was big and full of amenities. The breakfast was prepared specially for us per request. I couldnt be happier in choosing Doolin View D&D for my stay.

The three star review is probably partly our fault. I think we were being more budgetary for this stay, and the view that we had from our room was of the garage storage shed. The location is beautiful, but we couldn’t see any of it from our room (George Bernard Shaw room). It was downstairs, if you don’t want to haul luggage upstairs. There were some common areas, but it was too cold to use the outdoor ones. The location is a (not super short) walk to town, so in bad weather or if you are not able to walk that far, you would need to drive to the pubs and restaurants. Dedicated parking on site. The couple who runs it were very friendly and helpful.

Rooms were very comfortable, clean and modern. Breakfast was tasty with lots of choice and the hosts very welcoming. We can not rate this b&b high enough and will definitely return if we are in the area again. Remember to book direct to get the best price rather than through a comparison site. The local pubs are well worth visiting, we went to McDermott s and it didn’t disappoint.

Arrived 1 March for two nights and was greeted by Jason and later met Sandy. We had a comfortable double en suite room with lovely toiletries. There is a great selection for breakfast which is made to order plus an array of fare to choose from the buffet. There is a selection of beverages and snacks available if you fancy a midnight feast with an Honesty Box to cover you. Very friendly, local family run business. Would definitely recommend.

Great place to stay!!! Attention to detail, very comfortable room and common areas, great breakfast!!!

Doolin View is superb! Unfortunately we only stayed for one night but it was amazing. The location is fabulous. The decor and attention to detail in the literary themed rooms is beautiful and the breakfast is delicious. Sandy is such a lovely host. Can't recommend highly enough.

We stayed just one night after visiting the Cliffs of Moher. The hosts, Jason and Sandy, were very nice and welcoming. The view from the porch and the breakfast room was gorgeous and the breakfast was really delicious, with lots of options. Our room was nicely decorated (as was the whole house) but it was very small and had a full-sized bed, which was fine for us but may matter to some people. It was a short 8-minute walk to the main road and McDermott's Pub where we had dinner, but I believe a much longer walk to the village and Gus O'Connor's. We really enjoyed meeting Jason and Sandy.

Doolin View Bed & Breakfast is a wonderful place to stay whether you are looking for a quiet weekend away or touring the Irish countryside. With easy access to the Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, Fanore Beach, and many other sites, Doolin View is perfectly situated for your adventures in County Clare. Sandy and Jason immediately make you feel at home when you arrive and get the tour of the common areas and amenities. Guests have easy access to flashlights and umbrellas to ensure a safe, comfortable, and easy walk from town after hitting up the local pubs. There is also a nice common area to relax and have a drink from the honor bar while taking in the great, peaceful views. The rooms are well-appointed and are a decent size compared to other properties I’ve stayed at in Ireland. Though they may feel small for Americans, especially if you have a lot of luggage for a long trip away. The beds are comfortable, and the attached bathroom is nice. Each night, you place a card in your assigned cubby with your breakfast order and desired time for the following morning. There is an assor**ent of options, including Welsh rarebit and a full Irish. All homemade and delicious. When you come into the common room in the morning, you are warmly greeted and asked for your tea/coffee preference. From there, you can pour yourself some juice/water and assemble a plate of fruit/pastries/cereal. There are loads of options and none are a bad choice! Being locals, Sandy and Jason have as good a sense as you can of the varied coastal weather. During our stay, it was drizzly and foggy, but Sandy was able to suggest a good time for a Cliffs of Moher visit. It wasn’t perfectly clear, but her suggestion was by far the best view we could have had that day. You can’t go wrong by staying at Doolin View and would be doing yourself a disservice if you stayed in the area without considering it. Next time my wife and I visit Ireland, we will be staying at Doolin View and we are greatly looking forward to it!

The setting truly can’t be matched! Amazing view, comfortable bed, and delicious breakfast. Loved the vegetarian options. The only small quibble we had was the hot water in the shower. The booklet says that it takes a while to heat up when running a shower first thing in the morning, and it definitely does, so just make sure to plan accordingly. Other than that, it was a five star stay and a perfectly lovely experience!
