Itâs a wonderful family space, and it has everything you could possibly need - the owners have really put lots of thought and effort into the comfort of their guests. Itâs only 5 mins drive from Quilty village and about 10/15 from Spanish Point and Lahinch. We had a great time and highly recommend this house.

The house is roomy and spacious with special touches of some basics in the cupboards which was great. The housekeeper was quick to respond to any of our needs. Fantastic family home and great touches from the owners with a personal e-mail before and after our stay. Would strongly recommend Cherry Blossom Cottage for any large family or friend gathering. The only thing that would help is a floor plan (rarely are these included) so that we could allocate rooms before arrival but this didnât detract from our stay or experience. Of special mention are the showers that have a pumps ensuring you get a good force of water.
