Perfect Clare location!

“Soheen” is a beautiful, spacious cottage with views of the ocean. It had everything we needed for our 3 day stay. It’s a short distance from the Cliffs of Moher, Doolin (ferry to the Aran Islands) and the Burren. Our children enjoyed the upstairs bunk room and the large garden.

We stayed at this house for 3 nights and enjoyed it immensely. The house is beautiful, spacious and very close to the sea. The owners left lots of suggestions and tips of things to do. The cliffs of Moher and the burren are easy to get to. We would definitely stay here again.

Great stay near Lahinch!

Joan and Brian’s place is wonderful! Just a few miles out of Lahinch on a hill overlooking the bay, it is in the perfect location. The house is huge and feels cozy at the same time. There is a great seafood restaurant right next door where we ate twice (and also took home a loaf of their amazing bread!). Brian was very responsive to anything we needed. We hope to return to Soheen again!

Beautiful home in a quiet remote setting. We loved our stay and highly recommend. It is very remote, but not too far from town which has everything you could need. Very clean, well equipped, enough room for everyone. Watch for Ben, who seems to be the 4-legged neighborhood greeter.

This is a beautiful, artfully constructed home - stone floors in the foyer and laundry areas and solid woodwork throughout. Spacious rooms and all modern conveniences. Ocean bay is just 100 yards down the road. Conveniently located to Lahinch town center, Cliffs of Moher, and Doolin. We would definitely stay here again.

One of the best hosts we have experienced, and we do travel using VRBO and Home away quite a lot. Joan and Brian were thorough in there descriptions, and the house was immaculate and well ordered. The location was superb, if you prefer peace and quiet, yet a short drive to the action In Lahinch. We heard plenty of trad music, which we love, in nearby Milltown Malbay, as well as our favorite Doolin. A wonderful stay!

About the host

Hosted by Joan and Brian

Host profile image
Joan and Brian live in Oakville in Canada and have 3 wonderful children with our youngest in University! Brian grew up 20 miles/ 30 kms from Soheen and visited Lahinch every Sunday as a child and vacationed there every summer. Lahinch is a very special place for us and just thinking of there reduces our stress! Soheen is a house that we never can stay there too long and we get so excited every time we stay there! We built this house with the best of materials and appliances. It is the house we intend to retire in.

Why they chose this property

Soheen (or in Gaelic is Súichín) is a very special place for us and it lives up to its name which means 'a place of rest'. The review are spectacular and we just love spending time there when we can! We built this house with the greatest care and attention to maximize comfort and be a restful house in keeping with the surrounding natural area.

What makes this property unique

We, like our guests, that visit our home just love the atmosphere in the house - the wonderful finish which makes it most comfortable. Large open kitchen with wood floor and a perfect place to relax and enjoy the views of the countryside. The living room with natural stone fireplace which is just a perfect place to read a book and take it easy. The master bedroom with its en-suite and has a fireplace to give it that real Irish feel. The large gallery area on the 2nd floor which has a desk to sit and read and do yoga or stretching exercises! The main bedroom upstairs which has wonderful views and the feel that you are in another world and of course the children's room which has 2 bunk beds (3 singles and a double)! A place of rest and rejuvenation !
