Mid summer weekend in Clare

Delightful property in a great location with wonderful outdoor area. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Particularly enjoyed the proximity to the Riesling trail, great for early morning jogging and walking. Very comfortable for four, but tricky with 5 adults as the third bedroom is accessed through one of the other bedrooms. Clare is very hot in January and only one bedroom ( and the living room/ kitchen) had an air conditioner so the other bedrooms were a little warm in the evenings, but I think outside mid summer this would not be a problem.

Birthday getaway

Excellent accommodation and location, within walking distance to the local shopping area, the Riesling trial was at the end of the street, the fur baby enjoyed running around in the garden and was secured within the fences. Continental breakfast was amazing.

Great Family Stay

Family went to Clare for Mothers Day and had a fantastic time staying at Jacks 2. Kids had a great time exploring the garden and Sue even had toys out in the yard ready to go. The kids loved it. Beds were super comfy and the bacon and egg breakfast spread was superb and perfect for a Mothers Day breakfast. We’ll be back !

Cosy, Comfortable cottage in great Clare location

Jacks House 2 was beautifully appointed, the beds were really comfortable and we loved the location with great Clare restaurants, pubs and coffee spots all within walking distance. We e-biked Clare to Auburn and loved the hot shower at the end of the day. Thank you Sue for the yummy breakfast too - provisions provided were really generous! We will definitely come visit again.

Weekend Stay

Fantastic location right near the main street of Clare. Walking distance to shops, cafes and parks. Wonderful vibe, comfy beds, hot showers, comfy couch etc. Backyard space was fantastic as well. Great places to stay with friends, family, children and pets. Only small negative was we couldn't work out the dishwasher (had to be turned on underneath the sink) during our stay. On arrival there were dirty dishes in the dishwasher from previous guests and frozen food in the freezer. The third bedroom was also very musty and smelt like mildew. We have stayed at both Jack's House properties now and have really enjoyed our time at both.

Can recommend

Very nice and tidy accommodation and space, we really appreciate the addition items such as the milk, bacon, juice etc as well as the Christmas tree it was very thoughtful. The only aspect that could make the accommodation even better would be cooling with each room because it did get a bit warm even with the lounge air-conditioner on, however in saying this it was still very nice.

Lovely cottage walking distance to Clare main street

Lovely updated cottage with lots of charm, easy walking distance to Clare main street for a coffee or dinner. Beautiful under cover patio just right for kicking back with a book and chilling. Great enclosed yard with a lawn for our old dog to explore. And only a short drive to the local golf course. Of course there are heaps of cellar doors within a few minutes drive to explore, some great winery restaurants and impressive art galleries (the best one is 3 doors down the road!). Had an enjoyable stay and really loved the king sized beds. Great breakfast provisions too. Highly recommend.

Most relaxing time in months.

From the time we walked into the property we felt at home. I loved that we had breakfast organised for both days so that we didn't need to organise this straight away. The house is a great getaway and would love to visit again in Summer.

Jacks 2 in Clare

My cousins and I had a wonderful time at Jacks 2 house in Clare. It was and had everything Sue mentioned. We were warm and cosy on the cold winter long weekend, but hardly noticed it once inside. Sadly we couldn't make use of the beautiful seating outside due to the cold weather. The house was perfect for the 3 nights we stayed. Thanks so much Sue. We'd like to stay again some day.

About the host

Hosted by Sue Power

Escapee from the corporate life, living the dream running my two B&B's, meeting wonderful folk from around the globe. Often not fortunate enough to meet them in person (I like to give my guests ownership of the space while in residence) at least corresponding via email / phone so I feel I've helped make their holiday or short break a great experience.

Life's pleasures for me are family & friends, food, wine, books, cooking, live theatre, markets, bike riding & lap swimming with my teenage son, and time out walking with my partner.

Its a privilege to play a part in your holiday, we look forward to welcoming you to Clare.

Two spacious bedrooms offer privacy if you're travelling with family & friends plus a small 3rd bedroom with single size day bed and a fold out single bed in the living room.
