Each morning a traditional cooked and continental breakfast is served in the dining room, which has ocean views. The centre of Doolin is 10 minutes’ walk away and has several restaurants serving freshly caught fish.

Doolin Pier is 5 minutes’ walk from the guesthouse and has regular ferries to the Aran Islands. Stunning countryside surrounds the Atlantic View, including the famous Burren area. Everything was excellent, very nice hosts, breathtaking position and view from the room, service and breakfast. We highly recommend and would definitely go back there.

Set in Doolin, Clare region, Mountain Aven Guest House is situated 24 km from Aillwee Cave. With free private parking, the property is 10 km from Cliffs of Moher and 2.9 km from Doolin Cave.

At the guest house, units come with a wardrobe. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and a hair dryer, units at the guest house also feature free WiFi. The units are equipped with heating facilities. We decided to stay in Doolin so we could get to the Moher Cliffs at sunset. Worked out great. What we didn't expect was that this would be such a lovely place to stay. One of the nicest accommodations in our 2-week trip. The owner was so very friendly and offered a wonderful breakfast. Ours was a 1-nighter but we would definitely go back again and this time stay longer. Kudos!

At the guest house, all units are fitted with a outdoor furniture. Units include a private bathroom with a hair dryer, while selected rooms also boast a terrace and others also feature river views. At the guest house, each unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. This was SUCH a great place to stay just outside of the Cliffs of Moher. I knew I wanted to avoid the crowds and hike from Doolin to Hags Head in the early hours of the morning and this was the PERFECT place to do it from. Doolin is quiet in the evenings and there is an excellent pub just down the way (5 min or less) from the lodge. Host was helpful but leaves you to yourself and amenities were excellent. Breakfast space was helpful for coffee early am. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and fully plan to for easy access to Aran Islands, which I didn't get to this time.

The Pipers Rest is set in Doolin, off the main road, just a 2-minute walk from two of Doolin's traditional Irish music pubs.

All rooms feature tea/coffee making facilites and complimentary WiFi.

An array of activities are offered in the area, such as surfing, hiking, golf and horse riding. Shannon Airport is 47 km from the property. Jacquie greeted us outside of the regular check-in times and was super welcoming and gave great recommendations of things to do in the area. We are fans of sustainability and really like that The Pipers Rest e.g. tries to minimize food waste and hands out oder forms for breakfast the night before. We were really happy to also see vegetarian options on the menu! The food was very tasty, as well. (Just a suggestion for the future: eliminate the paper forms and maybe implement a QR code-based ordering system to make it even more sustainable). The room was great and had very comfy beds. Plus, the location is perfect - our main goal was to see The Cliffs of Moher. We wish we stayed a little bit longer to soak in everything Doolin has to offer!!! :)
