Yellow Cottage, Doolin

What a beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting! The cottage was clean, quiet and comfortable. My partner thought the bed was a little hard and we could've used a heavier blanket. The kitchen and bathroom were clean; the host even left breakfast makings in the fridge. All in all, it was a great experience.

The cottage was priced a little out of our budget, but it was worth the extra cost. The hedges on either side of the parking space could use a trim because we couldn't see if cars were coming in either direction (this seems to be the Irish way.)

Exceptionally clean and had so many household items, some we don’t even expect. Beautiful location, very near most of Doolin and Lisdoonvarna. We loved the Fiddle + Bow brand and would definitely stay at any of their properties in the future.

It is a smaller cottage so not ideal for 3 guys, better for 2 or less couples.

Beautiful cottage. Everything fabulous.

Thought it was a little pricey but it was the August bank hol weekend so I expect that prices probably more than usual.

Fantastische locatie.

We weren't sure what to expect from Yellow Cottage. We knew it was an old workers cottage but seeing how well it had been renovated was wonderful. Just about everything had been thought of and it had been tastefully decorated with quality fabrics and bed linen etc. And the heating worked well as it was still cold for May. A loaf of Irish Brown bread, six organic eggs, milk, homemade strawberry jam and butter had been thoughtfully provided. The location was gorgeous. It was in a very rural area a five minute drive from Doolin but there were other houses dotted along the country lane so it didn't feel isolated. Really pretty garden with distant views across to the Cliffs of Mohr. A great spot to watch the sunset.

The kitchen and bathroom were tiny but fine for a three night stay. The nearest large supermarket SuperValu is at Ennistymona which is a 15 min drive so plan a grocery shop carefully if you want to eat in. Saying that Russells Restaurant also managed by Fiddle & Bow is only 5 mins up the road by car.

Beautiful , cosy space well equipped. Great location

Very cute cottage, plenty of privacy and great value for money - the extras like jams/milk was incredible. If the place had a bath or hotub i'd be there all the time.

Warm cozy clean comfortable

We absolutely loved this little cottage. It was the perfect size for our group of three and such a nice change of pace after many B&Bs to have a little bit more space and cook our own meals. The surrounding area was absolutely gorgeous and it is remote but still very close (less than 20 mins) to a few pubs and a grocery store. It was a little cold and rainy while we’re there but the heating is very powerful and kept very cozy. The staff were also kind enough to help me arrange a courier service for an item I left behind. I can’t recommend this place enough!

The only thing that was tough for me is that road into the property is several kilometers of blind single lane road that was doable but a little challenging for me to drive - not really a problem of the property but just something to be aware of!

Beautiful cottage, comfortable and clean. We spent a peaceful few days there. Excellent

This is a beautiful place to stay near Doolin. The cottage is very clean, spacious and well maintained. It was so cosy and we had a fantastic time here. It is in an excellent location and has a lovely view down to Doolin from the cottage.

I didn't want to leave. The cottage is beautiful, warm, cosy, comfortable, spotlessly clean. Peace. Heaven. I will be booking this cottage again the next chance I get. I've stayed in villas abroad and other Airbnbs. None of them made the impression on me that this cottage did and some of them were beautiful. My soul connected to this cottage in a most unexpected way. Credit to the owners for the renovation, which retained the essence of the cottage and keeping things minimal and traditional, while fomenting a house that is at least as comfortable as any modern A rated house. I love this cottage. It would be great if it had a covered seating area outdoors, that's the only thing I'd suggest to make it better. Other than that, this is everything you could ask for in an Irish cottage. The site is beautiful and private, the road is quiet. The robotic lawnmower wanders around the garden like a parent with dementia, to keep you company. Splendid. Gorgeous. Can't wait to go back 🩷🩷🩷

Nothing. Everything was perfect

All very good, small thing, suggest a potholder or second tea towel, also kitchen plug needs a new seal, couldn’t retain the water hence we used more dish wash liquid than necessary (lid broken so it fell out)

Very comfortable and very homely cottage. Spotless. Had everything you could possibly need

The cottage is very quaint with a nice view. It was quiet and fairly private and interesting to stay in such an old building. It has been restored and updated and was warm and comfortable. We were very pleased to have the washer and dryer to use. Having the small woodstove in the seating area was also nice, though we didn't end up using it. We stayed just two nights and I wish we had stayed a bit longer to fully enjoy both the cottage and the area. The bed was comfortable . There was a lot of literature and information about the local area and places to visit provided, which was helpful.

I only have minor suggestions about how the place might be improved. There is a picnic table and a nice outside area; it would have been great to have some other, more comfortable seating options to enjoy the area outside; perhaps some Adirondack chairs or similar. The kitchen had instant coffee and some tea along with powdered creamer I think, but it might have been nice if a few other basics were provided; e.g. some milk/cream for tea, oils, spices, salt, pepper, sugar etc. in case someone wanted to cook. Some airbnbs also provide small snacks. I might also suggest a bit more decoration. I understand that the simple decoration was in keeping with the old stone cottage, but the grey utilitarian carpet and lack of wall decor made the place a little less warm and inviting than it might otherwise be. I would also add some lamps in the living room rather then relying on only overhead lighting.

Really beautiful little house in the countryside. A renovated original Irish cottage. Very quiet area - you need a car but very near Doolin and Lisdoonvarna. Very comfortable

Overall a lovely stay - just two small things I missed A little shelf under the mirror in the small bedroom would be handy for make up or a dressing table. A full length mirror, a flipper for frying eggs and a few more tea towels. But hey, these are small things. Totally recommend the house

There was only one window that could open…fresh air is a definite must!! Need to have washcloths for the face. Other than those 2 things my stay was an exceptional experience!!!!

Loved the traditional cottage the host left us fire log and the fire then heated the radiators - so it was cosy warm at nighttime. Really great after our retreat time at The Cliffs of Moher.

It’s was great

The cottage was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and so comfortable. It was the best place we have ever stayed! We loved the garden and sea views and we didn't want to leave! It is even better than the photos.

The cottage was very spacious & very clean. It was a wonderful property.

Clean and modern, yet rustic. Photos don’t do it justice. Easy location for Cliffs snd Aran ferry. Great yard and views.

Hot water/heat require a little technical management when using

Beautiful cottage very clean with stunning views....

Bit too far from Lisdoonvarna for festival and only a few taxis in the area....would have liked some milk and butter on arrival as no shop for miles.

this is a dreamy little haven in a stunning part of Ireland. The cottage is one of a collection and I think it is the best. The attention to detail was beautiful, they have kept is as authentic as possible combining with all the comforts of a modern home. A truly delightful find, I will stay again. You do need to drive or get a taxi into Doolin to eat but as the village is spread out, there seems to be an excellent local taxi service. Ask the hosts for advice. Its a short drive. We drove down for the evening & got a taxi home, then had a lovely morning walk to collect the car. Its all very easy! Hosts were super with recommendations for dinner too.

Cozy atmosphere. Pretty view. Short drive to the villages. Make sure to have a form of transportation (car, bike) to enjoy the Cave and reach the port.

The view. In the Country and fairly quiet.

Yellow Cottage is a beautiful cosy cottage with stunning views. Perfect location for touring by car. Wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely come back. Highly recommend.

It was so peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Felt really mellow leaving

This is the most beautiful cottage in an amazing location with stunning views They have thought of literally everything you might need, as well as things you haven't even thought of It was the perfect 3 night stay and we loved everything about it

Nothing
