A closer look

A place with character.

The view does the heavy lifting. The house stands high above Doolin with the Aran Islands out in front and a ruined tower house in the field beside it, which is not a backdrop many venues can offer. The whole place can be booked for your party alone, and they publish no guest limit, so pin that down early.

Doolin below is the traditional music town of north Clare, so the entertainment question mostly answers itself. Prices are not published, so put that at the top of your first email.

Before you book

Worth asking.

  1. What does exclusive hire of the whole house actually cost, and for how many nights?
  2. Can the ceremony happen outdoors with the tower house behind you, and what is the wet weather plan?
  3. How many guests can sleep on site?
