We stayed at Aran View Country House with a group of 11—our closest family and friends—while in Ireland for our wedding, and it was truly the perfect place for such a special trip. The house had so much space for all of us, and every bedroom having its own bathroom made getting ready incredibly easy and comfortable. There was tons of room for our entire wedding morning, and having a steamer on-site to steam my dress was a lifesaver! We also really appreciated having a washer and dryer available, which made traveling with a big group so much easier. The home itself is stunning—warm, spacious, and perfect for gathering. We loved relaxing in the lounge with the built-in bar, spending time around the pool table, and cooking in the huge commercial-grade kitchen. Preparing big meals was a breeze, and eating together in the full dining room made for such special memories. Sharon, our host, was amazing—quick to respond, incredibly helpful, and so accommodating with letting us and our friends in while we were away. Her staff was just as kind and even baked us fresh scones, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. Aran View Country House was everything we hoped for and more. It made our Ireland wedding adventure feel even more magical, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to any group looking for comfort, space, and true Irish hospitality.
Quaint cottage with 4 bedrooms with our own bathrooms, beautiful views and roaming lambs, LOVED IT!!! They had scones and jam for us for the morning 😊
Aran View is a former bed&breakfast, that now is rented as self-catering We are family group of 30 ages 3-70 and rented both sides, plus two apartments. The owner, Sandra opened the door between both sides, so it was like one large 10 bedrdoom manor. The dining room was big enough to fit our whole group and we had a chef come and cook dinner for us - it was a lot of fun and easier with the young children than going out. We also enjoyed hanging out in the bar area with family members playing bartender. The location was excellent for exploring the Aran Islands and Burren.
Booked the Aran view country house for one night for myself and 12 of my work colleagues as we were going to lisdoonvara for a night out, and i must say it was the most fabulous place to stay, the owner Sandra meet us the minute we arrived, and from the minute we met her i must say she was fantasic to deal with, she showed us around the house, she greeted everyone of us with a lovely warm welcome! Sandra also had a lovely batch of freshly home made scones for us! I would highly recommend the Aran view country home for a couple of nights away! Everything was just perfect! 5 stars all the way from me and my work colleagues!
Spent 4 nights here in 2022 and yearn to return. Get a room with west-facing views of fields and ocean. Cuppa tea, good book, and the view. Heavenly. Breakfasts were delicious and substantial. Innkeeper Sharon gave us great guidance and care. The short walk to and from the town was invigorating and the pubs offered delicious meals and music. A coastal path runs to the Cliffs of Moher and there's a bus if you prefer a lift. Such a wonderful town/part of the world/and community.
Beautiful house. Big bedroom with lovely views overlooking the sea. Fabulous breakfast, served to you so no clients bumping into each other! Super friendly and helpful staff. Ideally located for the Cliffs of Moher and trip to Aran Islands. Lots to do at night with music in all the local pubs.
It was fine but I wouldn’t return. No hot water on arrival for showers and our room was very small with a small double bed. No bottled water. Just what I would assume is tap water in a glass bottle. Breakfast was fine but nothing left out like juices, water etc. so you can’t top up.
We had a wonderful time staying with my large family in Doolin. The lodge was very clean and comfortable offering plenty of room for my family. The upstairs master suite provided a beautiful view out to the Aran Islands and we had fun walking to the Upper Village of Doolin to the Pubs to listen to some great Irish music! The host, Sharon was very friendly and responsive to any question we had. We would absolutely stay here again!
A wonderful, friendly and welcoming place. The sun was shining in the mornings to give a perfect view of the Aran Islands. They owners went out of their way to be accommodating during our stay and informative of the area. Quite setting very near pubs and cafes.
My wife and I stayed at Aran View for three nights in room 228. The room was spacious with a king bed, full bath and ocean view. Sharon, is a wonderful host and person. She was so accommodating, she made arrangements for us to feed the lambs ( an atypical request) along with feeding us every morning with a delightful breakfast. The grounds and facilities have been in her family for four generations and it shows in the pride of ownership. Sharon made great local attraction suggestions, all were terrific. We spent two weeks traveling Ireland and this was by far our favorite.
My wife and I celebrated our 42nd Wedding Anniversary visiting Ireland. We decided to stay at the Aran View Country House because of it's location and reviews on Tripadvisor. Our room was large, clean and well appointed. There was plenty of food for breakfast. It is a short walk into town to sample the variety of restaurants. My wife and I will definitely stay at the Aran View Country House in the future.
Thank you, Sharon, for such a wonderful experience in Doolin. My husband and I enjoyed the suite, the substantial and delicious breakfasts, and the excellent hospitality. The family-owned property is operated highly professionally with everyone offering prompt service, courtesy, and warmth. We received great advice on getting about without a car (we left healthier and much more relaxed than when had arrived). When we needed to schedule around the weather, I was very content to make a cup of tea and sit by the windows reading and gazing out across the beautiful fields to the Atlantic Ocean. You all are wonderful ambassadors for Co Clare and the Republic of Ireland.
Stayed here with my family for 2 nights while visiting Doolin. Rooms were comfortable, breakfasts were great and the views overlooking the fields to the ocean were incredible. Particularly enjoyed the sitting areas where we had drinks as a family. Would definitely stay again.
After our awful experience in Lahinch, we booked in at Aran View Country House. That was the perfect move!!! Very lovely place: amazing view of the Wild Atlantic Way, wonderful hosts, lovely room, and an excellent Irish brekky.
I am a bit baffled that there are so many positive reviews on this place. I mean, it wasn't the worst place we've ever stayed in but it was nowhere near great. When we arrived the reception was a bit cold, very business like, no real interest in us as guests. When we got to the room we were quite disappointed. We booked the honeymoon suite but the room wasn't up to par. It was bloody hot and it took hours of opening the windows and door before it cooled a bit. The bathroom has mould on the ceiling and in the shower hence the off putting smell, there was a dirty towel aswell. The stairs is narrow and feels like it could collapse any minute. Breakfast was okay but nothing spectacular, not many choices either. Not once during our two day stay did anyone bother to ask if we were enjoying ourselves. You get zero info on things to do or places to eat at in the area. They also have a dog running around which they don't really seem to care for as it runs around on the road and around the cars in the parking space. All in all, it's not a bad place but we've seen a lot better.
A great place to stay when you are visiting the west coast of Ireland. Our room was on the second floor with a view of the ocean which was great! It is very well kept and clean. The original part of the building was built in the 1700’s and the craftsmanship shows! The host was wonderful and very accommodating. Breakfast was excellent with all choices freshly made from scratch. Breakfast rooms were beautiful and lots of seating options. Best of all it was completely quiet at night. Well worth a stay here👍
This was the most beautiful place that I stayed in all of Ireland. The honeymoon suite is the worth the few extra euros even though I was alone. I loved sitting in my own chair looking out over the fields to the sea, the Aran Islands, and a bit of the Cliffs of Moher. Beautiful bed & bath. Breakfast cooked to order from a large menu and done perfectly. It's a bit of a walk to town but lots of parking available for your car so I would short drive in. This was a wonderful comfortable place that I highly recommend.
Loved our stay. Location and views amazing. Lovely breakfast. Very clean. Only fault was could hear every sound from the room above us, even the toilet been used and flushed. Apart from that, everything else was really good. Good value for money. Would defiantely stay again
Remarkably nice place with a stunning view of the bay. Breakfast is terrific. I’m still amazed at the breads. Really wonderful. There’s a large red dog that walks around and acts like he owns the place. I’m pretty sure he does. Give him a scratch. It’s a little bit of a walk up the hill from “downtown” Doolin, but we enjoyed it.
We stayed on sat 4th sept.our accommodation was faultless,was clean , was spacious and the reception and guest rooms are tastefully decorated.the hostess was helpful ,friendly and warmly welcoming.there is adequate parking,and breakfast was lovely ,served in a charming rustic style dining room. On another note the road back to the premises after a late night needs a moderate level of fitness,as it is all uphill and be aware it is along a poorly lit and narrow rod(not a criticism ,and shouldn't reflect on the quality of the accommodation). Overall,,,very satisfied,and g,v,f,m.
Lovely accommodation in a very central location. The room we had was very spacious and very clean. Staff very friendly. They have resident dogs that sometimes hang around the lobby area so just be wary if you are not a dog fan. Will definitely look at staying here again.
A ok hotel a bit tired service good
Recently stayed here with my family and it was very clean and the bed was very comfortable.. I slept so well. The view was beautiful from our window. The breakfast was lovely the following morning. Would stay here again.
I recently stayed in the Aran View Country House with my husband and 2 children aged 12. It is an old style House with charachter. We were looked after very well, the room was clean and comfy, the view spectacular and breakfast was fresh and delicious with lots of choice for adults and kids.
Friendly welcomw. Spotless. Walking distance to pubs ect
