About this property

Quaint & Cosy Cottage in the heart of Doolin Village.

  • The Half Door is a cosy cottage brimming with character in a fantastic location in the heart of Doolin, County Clare. It is set back off the main road in a tranquil setting, yet only a stones throw from all the action. The Half Door is featured in the Rick Steve's guide books and described as "the coziest place around."

    There are four double ensuite rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a large dining/living room & separate sitting room with stove and smart TV. Ample off road parking and a south facing garden to relax in. The newly refurbished sitting room has large exposed beams in the ceiling, a window seat beside the stove to curl up on and relax, a 50" smart TV and comfortable leather furniture to sink into. The open plan dining/living room is surrounded with windows and has a patio door that open onto the south facing garden, There is rattan furniture, a well stocked book shelf and a DVD player and selection of DVD's. The large dining table can accommodate eight people comfortably. There is also a mini wine bar and service counter beside the dining table.

    The kitchen is off the dining/living room and has a galley kitchen with loads of cupboard space, a gas hob with electric oven, George Forman grill, kettle, toaster, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer and all the kitchen utensils required. The kitchen leads out to an enclosed service yard.

    All four bedrooms have their own private bathroom and seating area. One bedroom is on the ground floor and can be made up as either a super king double bed or two single beds. There are three bedrooms on the first floor. Two rooms have a double bed and the third room has two single beds. There is a large Velux window on the landing upstairs with a table and chairs under the window that provides an extra light filled that is ideal for a workspace.
