Situated on the west coast of County Clare in Ireland, the village of Spanish Point takes its name from the Spaniards who died there in 1588 when the Armada was wrecked during stormy weather. Today, the village consists of many holiday homes, several pubs - some of which offer live Irish music - a lovely beach which is popular amongst swimmers and surfers, and a nine-hole golf course - one of the oldest in Ireland. Just three miles away is the small town of Miltown Malbay, providing a selection of shops and pubs, whilst the seaside town of Lahinch is also close by. Visitors can enjoy the Cliffs of Moher - located to the north of Lahinch - which offer superb views of the North Atlantic and the Aran Islands in clear weather.
County Clare has so much on offer; boat trips, quirky pubs, seaside resorts and a great tradition for Irish music, all set amidst spectacular scenery such as the towering Cliffs of Moher and the fascinating landscape of The Burren.
We loved everything about this cottage. Great welcome from Finbar and thanks for the lovely homemade scones. Everything worked well in the house and it was very comfortable. I though the main road would be noisy but it wasn’t and was relatively quiet. Would love to come back to this house again. Great meal out in the Bellbridge hotel down the road and easy drive to Laninch and Liscannor.
A great family cottage with everything you would want to make your holiday. Location perfect. near the beach and village of Milltown Malbay. Plenty of space for our dog to run around. Finbarr very welcoming
We had a wonderful stay and the Cottage was the icing on the cake. The house was beautiful, a real home from home! I would highly recommend this Cottage - a real luxury.
Absolutely loved this cottage. It has been finished to a really high standard and has everything you could ever need. The cottage was so cosy and is ideally situated within walking distance of the beautiful beach at Spanish Point. The owner gave us loads of info about places to go nearby. Can't fault this place at all and would definitely return if they will have us again!
We liked everything about our holiday from the moment we arrived till the day we left. Bluebell cottage is so beautiful, we could not ask for anything more. We had a wonderful time in a wonderful place, Irish hospitality at its best thank you.
It was a great touring location and lovely to have somewhere nice and comfortable to come home to after a great day of sight seeing.
An excellent cottage and well furnished. It felt like a home away from home, will book this cottage again.
We stayed here for one week in june, the facilities available were excellen. The house was v well equipped, with all mod cons. There were plenty of towels, bedding etc. There was a lovely outdoor ate a with a new barbeque, the kitchen was fully equipped....with beautiful home made scones on our arrival. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our stay with our 6 month old baby. A really lovely holiday home!
Very well situated, extremely clean. Prompt and helpful response from our hosts. We would definitely recommend this cottage.
My partner and I spent a few days down in Spanish Point earlier this year at Bluebell Cottage and had a fantastic time. The cottage was lovely with great original features. Only a few minutes from the beach and golf club and the owners were very nice. I'm sure we will be going back.
Open plan living with loads of natural light coming in through the kitchen / dining room. Beautiful setting, beach and countryside. Brilliant holiday.
Bluebell Cottage 14th June to 21st June 2014 We arranged to meet the owner at 3.0pm on the 14th June so keys could be handed over. In the event we arrived at 3.45pm simply because we could not find the cottage. Both the owner and his wife were waiting and it was obvious they were in a hurry to depart. The owner’s wife cursorily showed my wife the kitchen, washing machine, tumble dryer and dish washer, none of which had any written instructions or manuals. In fact the tumble dryer was still working when the owners departed; the wife simply said “the towels are nearly finished! The owner showed me the TV (with satellite dish connections) which was located in the very small lounge with the wood burner. This room was small and very claustrophobic so we did not use it. See photo attached. The other “lounge” was actually part of the large kitchen. It also had a TV which could only receive Irish channels. The owners explained that they had intended to “clean up” the BBQ, but had not got around to doing so therefore it was not useable. See photo’s attached. They also said the shower in the en-suite was broken so would we use the shower in the main bathroom. They did not mention the toilet in the bathroom was difficult to flush and it was only after I found some oil to lubricate the mechanism could we use this toilet. The owners left us after about 15 minutes, saying any problems phone them. I was not shown the “starter pack” for the fires. After searching I found the “starter pack” which was half a hob of coal, a couple of wooden logs and two peat logs, and that was it! We were given two very large luxurious bath towels and invited to use their beach towels. The bed was large and very comfortable. They also left some scones and a pot of jam. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, crockery and knives and forks. The trouble was not all the appliances had been washed adequately and we could not find one sharp knife. This cottage is clearly used by the owners because their personal belongings were everywhere. In the utility room a large wet suit was hanging. Their clothes were in and on top of the wardrobe. Items were also in the drawers etc. Not what you would expect from a holiday cottage! In the “amenities” a CD player was listed, as I could not find this CD player I spoke to the owner by telephone, his cheery response was that the player was damaged/broken two weeks previously and he had to take it away for repairs. He had meant to bring it back on the day we moved in but forgot! He did not offer to bring the CD player to us and we did not have one for the week! Also under “amenities” a shop is listed as 12 minutes’ walk and a pub in 7 minutes’ walk. What the owners failed to inform us was that the “pub” was reached by turning left when you left the cottage, and was in fact a hotel with limited menu and hotel prices. The shop was a right hand turn from the cottage and was a small mini market attached to a garage. If anybody could reach either in the time given they must walk very quickly and as it meant walking along the main N67, without any foot path we did not attempt the walks! See photo’s attached.
This cottage is perfect in every way.
I loved the location and the quaint comfortable cottage.
I could not fault the property.
Bluebell Cottage was wonderful, we received a very warm welcome, had everything we needed for our stay and will definitely come again!
Loved the cottage. Was made to feel welcome and comfortable. Especially enjoyed the lovely kitchen, and the touch of whimsy in the décor. Great cottage, and superb location. Would highly recommend to others.
The perfect place for a family holiday.
A fabulous property. It was clean, comfortable and very well appointed. The owner was very friendly and helpful and the welcome we received was first class We would not hesitate to recommend this property to our friends and family - in fact we would positively encourage them to take a holiday here.
Stunning scenery, excellent food, friendly people.
The Cottage surpassed my best expectations by far. The owners made us so welcome. The location was ideal, a short drive to the local beach, local town, local golf course and a fuel station just down the road. What else could one want!
