- "Lovely experience. Richard the owner was very accomdating and answered all my questions. Very close to downtown Ennis and the Cathedaral (a five minute walk). I would absolutley stay at this property again. A sweet taste of local Irish living. " - "House was in a lovely area, very clean owners where very lovely to deal with " - "Very good" - "The townhouse was very nice. It's not very big, but more than adequate for the four of us driving around Ireland. We liked that it was a townhouse and not a hotel. So, there's a living room and dining room in addition to the bedrooms. There's also a small, cozy backyard. There was a slight problem with communication because the owner sent instructions via Travelocity/Expedia and the message wasn't delivered. So, we called and he sent it again. But he was also very helpful on the phone and gave us instructions on how to open the lock box and retrieve the front door key. Because the townhouse is in a residential area, there are no pubs, bars, or restaurants nearby. We had to drive to Ennis "downtown" to get dinner. Also, be aware that your GPS may lead you astray, as it did us. We ended up at the train station, which has a similar address. Luckily, the townhouse is only about a half mile from the train station. Overall, we enjoyed our one night stay."

Summary:
Relax and unwind in an Idyllic Irish Retreat. This is the perfect traditional countryside home from which to explore Western Ireland! Eden is large yet cozy, complete with all modern amenities. Tucked on a hillside, trees dot the edges of the beautiful one-acre yard.
The Space:
Open the door. Eden Retreat wraps its arms around you from the moment you walk inside. This home is an ideal hideaway for one or more couples traveling together. It’s also a great lodging for families and friends to gather.
Eden consists of a lovely main home and detached cottage with full bathroom. A 1,000 square foot covered deck surrounds the cottage, a portion of which is covered for all-weather enjoyment.
The main house features a spacious and inviting open-plan common area with kitchen, dining area and large comfortable living room. The 40" flat-screen TV has Sky satellite service, including subscription Sport & Movie channels. There are 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with showers in the main house.
The hot-tub cottage is a cheerful, bright space featuring an indoor hot tub encased in sandstone. The cottage has its own bathroom with shower, and may be used as a fifth bedroom on request. A full height, queen-size (and very comfortable!) air-bed will be dressed and ready on arrival should you need it.
This home is the best of both worlds. Peaceful and quiet, Eden is tucked on the outskirts of Ennis, a charming and bustling market town, and the capital of County Clare. Only 20 minutes from Shannon Airport, 30 minutes from Clare’s rugged scenic coast, and 3 minutes from the M18 motorway linking Galway & Limerick, Eden’s location is ideal for exploring the best of Western Ireland.
The stunning, peaceful ambiance of Irish nature is one step outside your back door. A custom-paved patio, perfect for parties and lounging, awaits you. Gracious sandstone walls and wooden steps lead through terraced lawns and flower gardens.
Eden Cottage Retreat is nearby all major attractions on Ireland's stunning west coast, including: The Cliffs of Moher, Galway City, The Aran Islands, Doolin Village, Bunratty Castle, Adare Heritage Village, Cork & the Blarney Stone, Killarney and the Ring of Kerry. The long sandy beach and promenade at surf-mecca Lahinch is just 30 minutes away.
And don't worry, Eden offers a speedy Wi-Fi connection!
Guest Access:
Guests will have the entire House & Hot-Tub Cottage at their disposal. Eden Retreat comfortably sleeps 9 adults.
The Neighborhood:
Eden Retreat is located 4 miles north of the town of Ennis. Ennis gets its name from the Irish word “inis” (island) because it is virtually surrounded by the River Fergus, a melodious presence throughout. The streets of Ennis are narrow and charming, with many areas pedestrianized. There are plenty of locals here—Ennis is no tourist trap—and you’ll hear voices that are raised in laughter or storytelling in bakeries and bookstores alike. The Friary at the bottom of Abbey Street was founded by the O’Briens in the 13th century. Many of its original features survive. It’s breath-taking and has a textured silence that speaks through the centuries.
Why the Owner Chose Ennis:
The main attraction in Ennis is the locals’ love of traditional Irish music. The town is renowned as a hub of 'trad' music, and musicians of the highest quality are on display in the pubs of Ennis throughout the year. It often seems that those in town who can't sing or play an instrument are very much in the minority! Ennis is located near all the best attractions in the West of Ireland including the Cliffs of Moher, Aran Islands, Galway, Limerick, Cork, the Blarney Stone and an array of beautiful beaches.
Getting Around:
Eden Retreat is just 15 minutes from Shannon Airport, 2.5 hours from Dublin Airport.
There is ample private parking on-site.
As the house is not served by public transportation (other than taxis), having a rental car is essential.
Other Things to Note:
Electricity and Heating Oil Usage are included in listed rates
Interaction with Guests:
The owners of Eden Retreat have worked in the travel industry for 20 years, and are delighted to share their wealth of local and countrywide knowledge with guests.
- "Host is super responsive!" - "Wonderful experience from the first contact with the owner until the final day! Beautiful house and grounds. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, patio was great for morning coffee and yoga. Easy access to Ennis which has great pubs, shops and places to gather with extended family. Owner/host was amazingly helpful, answering many questions and providing detailed driving directions and great suggestions for dining and shopping. Highly recommend this beautiful property!"

- "The house was beautiful and just the right amount of country setting. Was great to get to stay in the Ireland countryside! Christine was a phenomenal host. When we arrived, it was after some people had already been in Europe for a week and we were counting on the washer and dryer. Unfortunately the washer didn’t work when we got there, but without a beat Christine offered to do all of our laundry at her own home and brought it back to us later in the day. We also had a question of what the contraption was across the road, and we got a full demonstration from her family member (the Guiness record holder) for Sheaf tossing! A great stay, and we all enjoyed the home fully! Thanks again for the stay Christine!"

- "Great views and friendly people" - "Ann was such a wonderful host. She was so friendly and helpful. The cottage was comfortable and cozy. The cottage was beautifully and authentically designed. Everything that we wanted to see was within a 2-3 hour drive. The cottage was away from the business and noise of towns but within 10-15 kilometers of pubs,markets, sites to visit like Doolin Caves and Aiwee Caves, and stores." - "The cottages of Fanore are a lovely traditional cottage located in a beautiful setting that will take your breath away. The cozy fireplace and the sea view from the master suite is absolutely stunning. It is located close to many amazing attractions both new and old from the cliffs of Moher the caves of Aillwee and the beautiful moonscape of the burren . I’d stay there again!"

This luxurious tranquil lodge is situated in a beautiful rural area of County Clare, on an elevated site surrounded by nature, living, blooming, scented and colourful.
It is only 10 minutes from Ennis, 20 minutes from Lahinch with beach and golf and close to the unspoilt countryside of the Burren and its hinterlands which can provide many days of pleasure exploring its hidden landscape.
Lickaun Lodge was built in 2001 by skilled and artistic tradesmen, using natural stone and a beautiful variety of woods;- elm, cedar, and larch which were sourced from historic woods. These were selected, dried and carved into beams and decorative furniture.
Limosene or Chauffeur driven transportation service available on request, ask for more details.
KITCHEN:
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with a large Range-Master gas/electric cooker; it sits in the heart of the kitchen with a beautiful marble backdrop inscribed with Fáilte (Welcome). The ceiling has oak beams, home to a collection of antique jugs. The dresser houses a selection of fine china, linen and silver cutlery for your entertaining needs. The welcoming entrance porch, adjacent to the kitchen, provides storage for everyday equipment and is decorated with lovely pictures and mirrors themed around domestic birds. Water is sourced from a natural spring well for your good health.
SUN ROOM:
The spacious sun-room has a gothic theme with high ceilings, larch beams with wrought iron. The once-off dining table and tall chairs were designed and carefully crafted by a cabinet maker using burned elm wood. This is a very relaxing room in which to sit and watch the swallows in summer or the doves hover over the lake. In the morning, rabbits and hares wander close to the house;- undisturbed nature at your window cill.
LOUNGE:
The elegant, cosy lounge is decorated with Victorian-style furniture, ‘his and her’ chairs, wing backs and chaise lounge. The limestone fireplace with its large wood-burning stove is certainly a pleasure to sit beside on a winter’s evening just listening to the antique wall clock ticking. The front entrance porch off the lounge provides spectacular views of the lake and mountain.

The pitch-pine stairs leading from this room brings you to the master-bedroom with its large antique- inlaid bed and a beautiful large deep bath provides relaxation in the tastefully decorated bathroom.
BEDROOM 2:
The twin-bedded room on this floor is airy and comfortable with beautiful views of garden and countryside.
BEDROOM 3:
The single downstairs en suite bedroom is a cosy retreat freshly decorated with toilet de Joui fabric. This theme follows through to the large en suite bathroom.
GARDEN
The extensive garden has many facets, lavender-scented beds, rock roses, mature trees, scree beds, vegetable plots, fruit trees and a variety of berries for winter preserves.
The three cut-stone patios provide seating for different times of the day, here you can sip your wine/morning coffee in privacy, watch the horse’s graze, cattle resting or hares and foxes in the early morning dew, the natural music of the song-birds and the domestic birds as they roam the garden freely.
- "I can't say enough about the property...just as described; a wonderful retreat. That said, it was really the owner (Tina) that made the stay over the top; warm, inviting, over-the-top preparation for my arrival with the pantry and fridge stocked with wonderful treats! Looking forward to staying here again soon!" - "Of all the times that we have rented a VRBO dwelling, this was the first time that the host, hospitality, care and willingness to make absolutely everything around our vacation a success was so deeply felt! Upon our arrival our dear host (and new lifelong friend) had a delicious hot dinner prepared and welcomed us to our house with a wonderful fire burning in the living room, candles lit and the warm ambience of a delightfully decorated house. We were in awe by her delightful conversation, her willingness to assist us with any of our touring plans (and thanks to her we experienced soooo much more of the harder to find sites and scenes!), and her genuine desire to make sure that our first time to experience Ireland, wouldn't be our last! What incredible Irish hospitality! The many pictures of her house and yard, while beautiful, are no comparison to seeing it firsthand. Being there makes you feel as if you are in a dream! Looking out the front windows across her lawn and incredible flowerbeds, gives you a view across the large valley of pastures and farms. Out the side window, a view of her stables, with her three lovely horses looking out, ready to greet you a horse version of "good morning"! She also has a most incredible variety of hens and roosters, large and small, some varieties I had never seen before, and she know each by their personal names. Incredibly they listen to her too! And the roosters sound wonderful in the morning. Her two dogs are so well trained and are a pleasure to be around. Our dear host has a wonderful eye for details and her house and it furnishings, antiques and ambience, made us feel as if we were living in the 1920's, like in the movies, but with all the convenience and amenities of today. A real hand has to go out for her forethought and design that she put into constructing a new house that had such an old world feel. It was a privilege to stay their for a week (I wish it could have been longer), and given the opportunity, we would stay there again in a heartbeat! We cannot say enough about how we appreciated the area, but especially about making all our new friends! Thank you so much"

I would stay here again!" - "Wonderful, well equiped flat. Beds were gorgeous and showers delightful. Stayed with the family and our only regret was we only had two days in Enis so didn't get to explore all the great shops and bars. Paul met up with us and gave us a tour. All the little details like having water bottles, coffee packs, paper towels, regular towels were all taken care of.

This is a lovingly restored home with a rich history dating right back to 1778.Originally a soldier’s barracks, it has been brought back to life brick by brick by its dedicated owners, resulting in a large, luxury vacation home available now for rentals.
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.
- "The most beautiful setting and historic buildings modernized with every comfort. Exceptional decoration and appointments. Our host Marion was lovely and helpful and her scones were delicious. Our chef Damien Culliney performed last minute miracles feeding extra family members. His welcoming Irish stew on arrival and full Irish breakfast served our first morning were delicious…best meals we had. The location of the barracks was perfect for daily trips to Bunratty Castle, Cliffs of Moher and golf courses. Returning in the evening to the beautiful gardens for drinks and Damien’s cooking was the icing on the cake (and the sticky toffee pudding)."

This beautiful cosy one bedroom cottage is the perfect blend of old meets new. It retains all the traditional features and open brickwork of the building but it has been transformed and modernised to make this charming retreat perfect for one or two people.
The vibrant coloured half door gives an indication of the style and beauty of this property before you even go inside. The reclaimed wooden flooring and exposed brickwork come together to create a welcoming and cosy space. The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, hob, microwave etc and there is a lovely little dining table which tuck perfectly against the wall to make sure you have plenty of space.
The sitting room has a wood burning stove and a floor to ceiling feature fireplace behind. The couches and armchair are weathered and comfy and the perfect place to curl up with a good book or snuggle up and watch your favourite movie. If you want to simply sit and relax, your eye will be drawn upwards to the wooden shuttered window and the shelves below which feature an array of interesting collectables.
The bathroom is downstairs and is wet-room style with shower, sink and toilet. Alongside this is the full utility area with sink, washing machine and tumble dryer cleverly tucked away into this space.
To get to the bedroom you must go up the beautiful staircase which brings you to the mezzanine level. From here you can look down below you to the sitting room or continue conversing with the other person downstairs. For privacy though there is a screen which can be pulled over if required. There is plenty of space for storage and there is a wrought iron clothes rail to hang what is needed.
The attention to detail in the Coach House is second to none and is mirrored in its neighbouring homes – Thomond House, Castle House and De Clare House all within this gated private courtyard. For a special occasion, the Straw House on the opposite end of the courtyard has been transformed into a little chapel style room which has already hosted a number of weddings and celebrations.
Whether you are looking to escape on your own for a few days or to cosy up with a loved one, the Coach House is just perfect for your needs. We look forward to welcoming you….

We enjoyed our stay." - "This place was beautiful and relaxing! I would stay there again in a heartbeat! Thank you for a great experience! " - "We stayed three nights and loved the convenience of this home's location. Driving to Ennis or the Cliffs of Moher and Doolin was easily accessible from this location. The house had everything we needed, and the heat was turned on for us, which was terrific in the chilly, damp weather. The owner was quick to respond to any questions we had. We plan on staying here again when we return to Ireland. "

This is a lovingly restored home with a rich history dating right back to 1778.Originally a soldier’s barracks, this property has been brought back to life brick by brick by its dedicated owners, resulting in a large, luxury vacation home available now for rentals.
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.

Although there are 8 bedrooms, we have set the ideal number of people to 10 as that is the number that could most comfortably stay and enjoy the house. Larger groups could also rent the other houses within the courtyard.
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.

- "We made the barricks property our home base for our family group of 9 while exploring Ireland and could not have asked for better accommodations! The restored property is absolutely beautiful! Our lovely host, Marion, shared the rich history of the barricks with us and we were amazed at how much work went into restoring the property. We hired Damien (the chef that was offered to us), to prepare a meal the night of our arrival and his Irish Stew was delicious! He also stocked the kitchen with our requested items, arranged for golf for the guys and took them fishing (he's a fishing guide too!). We loved the local Power's Pub and highly recommend Vesuvio, the take-away fish & chips place just a short walk away. The barricks property is truly a special place and we feel so fortunate to have stayed there!"

THE SANCTUARY - Main House
The Sanctuary estate consists of a renovated 100-year old cottage that is available for Air BnB guests. There are also separate outbuildings (stables) that have been converted into three self-contained studios next door to each other (Studios 1, 2, and 3). Studio 1 is also available for Air BnB guests (please see other listing for The Sanctuary - Studio 1: Self-Catering for 2). The host stays from time to time in Studio 3.
The space
In the main house, there is a kitchen, a dining room (that can accommodate 12 people), a large sitting room with home bar, a master bedroom with ensuite, and a separate guest toilet and shower room on the ground floor. Upstairs, you will find four bedrooms and the main bathroom with shower.
The Sanctuary estate, formerly a donkey sanctuary, sits on an elevated five-acre site in a peaceful, rural area surrounded by Gortacurka (Irish for Field of the Oats) Forestry. It has views in the distance of Mullaghmore Hill, the Burren Hills, Corofin village, Lake Inchiquin, and Ballycullinan Lake. One can relax to the sounds of the birds in the forest, hear the wind in the trees, or listen to the babbling stream that flows through the estate especially after a rain shower. There is very little light pollution here so on a clear night, the stars are quite spectacular.
Other things to note
In the kitchen, there is an oil-fired Aga Cooker with 4 ovens and 3 hot plates with an integrated gas hob and electric oven module that provides heat 24/7. It creates a cosy, warm atmosphere in the kitchen and home and is very welcoming when you return from a day's outing.
Bedroom 1 (downstairs) has an ensuite.
A starter pack of timber logs with kindling and firefighters is available for the wood-burning stove in the large sitting room.
The large sitting room also has a home bar with bar stools for entertaining.
There is a stream flowing through the land so this property would not be suitable for small kids.
As part of the house goes back 100 years, the ground floor isn't on one level. There is a step from the entrance lobby into the kitchen, another step from the kitchen into Bedroom 1 (downstairs), and a small step on the upstairs landing that deserve due care and attention. Your host will point these out to you at check-in.
Ample parking is available on site.
Some of the surrounding land is being landscaped in preparation to plant grass and Irish wildflowers but no work will be done during your stay.
Two outdoor cats live on the estate so unfortunately, pets are not allowed. These cats are not allowed into the house but they may occasionally peep in the windows and doors to say hello to you!
