"What a fun, quirky, lovely little spot on the bay! We loved the character and location. The fishing town was adorable and the characters we met were even more adorable! Thank you for hosting such a unique gem on the Emerald Aisle! "

"Kay is a wonderful host. She was very responsive before, during and after our trip. The house was lovely, very clean and large enough for large family gatherings. She even put up a Christmas tree for us. We came for Christmas and had a wonderful time even though our family members had to cancel due to illness. The area is beautiful and Kay is very knowledgeable of the area and the best places to visit and eat! I would definitely recommend this lovely home and host for your family vacation. We will definitely be back to visit Kay."

"House was very clean. Christmas tree was up, turf was there for a fire "

"My wife and I just had a Halloween weekend in Co Clare at the boat house with all our family. 8 adults, 3 teenagers and 3 young ones. From my first contact with Michele, I was made feel quite at home long before the weekend even started. We arrived late and being October it was great to find the house warm and cosy. There were freshly baked loaves, cake, brownies in the kitchen with milk and ice-cream etc in the fridge - fantastic..The house easily facilitated all our needs, with ample entertaining spaces (excellent TV bar area upstairs with great views of Shannon estuary), kitchen and dining room coped with the 14 of us perfectly. Bedrooms and bathrooms have everybody the original spaces they needed. Even though it was Oct/Nov the jacuzzi was well used by quite a few of us. The area of South West Clare gave us exactly what we wanted for our late autumn break, surprisingly good weather, cliff walks and fantastic views.Overall everybody had very enjoyable short break in a very comfortable and spacious family friendly home.Thx for all that Michele."

"Review for Cashen Course House – September 2025 We had a lovely stay at Cashen Course House in Ballybunion. The location is perfect — quiet but still close to the town and golf course. The room was spotless, and everything was well maintained, which made for a really comfortable stay. Having on-site parking was a big plus, especially after driving around the countryside. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, which added a personal touch to the experience. I’d definitely recommend this B&B to anyone visiting the area. Would happily stay again!"
