The Waters Country House

10/10 Excellent
"An amazing place. We had the Mountain Suite, which had a large four-poster kingsize bed plus two single beds for kids, which was decorated beautifully in an Irish medieval style, full of dark painted wood set off with pieces of art from places across the world. The location is super quiet, being a couple minutes from the nearest 'busy' road (busy is a relative term in North Clare!), but is only a short drive from some very nice places to eat and drink. The hosts - an Italian/Spanish couple who have been running this place for years now - are very personable, welcoming and engaging. Highly recommended if you want to stay in a place that makes it hard to get off your backside and actually go to the Cliffs of Moher!"
