Guestbook
10/31/06 - We had the best vacation ever in this beautiful cottage. The views for the house were an awesome panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean, Cliffs of Moher & Aran Islands. It was every bit as nice & more than the description. We can highly recommend this rental & will come back again some day. - Karen Ress, Phoenix, AZ.
09/13/06- Creig Cottage is probably the best vacation house in all of Ireland! The setting is fantastic- views of the sea, the Aran Islands, the Burren- all from the cottage windows. The cottage itself is light-filled and clean, with all the modern amenities. Although it offers tranquility of a rural setting, its close proximity to Doolin, Ennistymon, Lisdoonvarna and Ennis makes shopping convenient. It is also ideal as a jumping off point for several other destinations throughout Ireland. The owners are exceedingly gracious and very eager to see that everything is to your liking- they made sure that we were stocked with all the kitchen basics- eggs, butter and the best ever Irish brown bread we`ve ever had. Its was hard to leave this little spot of heaven! - Hub and Kate M.., Stillwater, NY, USA
