The property
This is a wonderfully charming and detached cottage set on the shores of Lough Graney on the owner's small working dairy farm. Surrounded by the beautiful wooded countryside of the lakeside hamlet of Caher, near Flagmount in County Clare, this cottage has much to offer. This whitewashed country cottage in Caher is traditionally decorated and offers a homely feel throughout, providing an ideal spot for enjoying a peaceful and rural break. A river runs through the farm where guests can enjoy trout fishing or walks by the river at their leisure. Offering flexible accommodation in a choice of bedrooms, including a ground floor double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, this cottage in Caher is a lovely base for groups of all ages. There is an open plan living area, where you can enjoy preparing a meal in the well-equipped kitchen or relaxing in the sitting area in front of the woodburner and discussing what adventures are still to come on your holiday in this wonderful region of Ireland. The pretty garden at this Caher cottage provides a tranquil area to unwind after a busy day discovering the area. Caher is a scattered hamlet which boasts a pier and fishing stand which juts out into the stunning Lough Graney. Why not rent a boat and enjoy a wonderfully relaxing cruise across the lake? There is a local pub in the hamlet where welcoming locals get together and where traditional music is often played; a wonderful location for soaking up Irish culture. With beautifully clear lakes, rural countryside and beautiful green fields, this area provides delightful walking routes, meaning that those who enjoy exploring new areas will be in their element. The town of Ennis and the city of Galway are both within easy reach and are bursting with the area's culture, just waiting to be discovered. Guests can also take a day trip to the west coast of Clare and visit The Cliffs of Moher; a truly enjoyable experience before returning to this lovely County Clare cottage in its quiet and beautiful location.
