Wild Atlantic Way
Property overview
Tucked along the Wild Atlantic Way, just 3 km from Spanish Point, Co. Clare, this enchanting retreat is the perfect escape for anyone seeking to reconnect with nature. From morning greetings from alpacas and sheep to dining al fresco in the fresh Atlantic air, every moment here is an invitation to slow down and replenish the soul.
Gatekeeper's Lodge is a carefully restored Victorian cottage dating back to 1837, originally built as the caretaker's home on the Butler family estate — formerly the Earls of Ormond. Its rich history is woven into every corner, from exposed stonework walls and original flagstone sills to bold, minimalist interiors that bring the space beautifully into the present.
Wellness sits at the heart of the experience. Sink into the Japanese-style Ofuro outdoor seaweed bath, filled with hand-harvested seaweed from Spanish Point, or explore the rugged Clare countryside on foot, with easy access to some of Ireland's most iconic Atlantic landscapes.
Whether you arrive in need of rest, adventure, or simply a change of pace, Gatekeeper's Lodge has a quiet way of giving you exactly what you need.
Accommodation
This intimate 1-bedroom retreat is perfect for couples, featuring a generous double bed and an atmosphere of quiet seclusion. There is also the flexibility to accommodate a third guest, making it a cosy hideaway for up to 3 people.
Location
Nestled along the Wild Atlantic Way on the west coast of Ireland, Gatekeeper's Lodge sits just 3 km from the charming seaside village of Spanish Point in Co. Clare. The surrounding landscape is nothing short of spectacular, from the dramatic Cliffs of Moher and the ancient limestone expanse of The Burren, to the sweeping beaches and rolling green countryside that define this stretch of coastline. Loop Head Peninsula and Aillwee Caves are also within easy reach. Whether you're chasing coastal walks, traditional Irish villages, or simply an uninterrupted Atlantic horizon, this corner of Clare has it all on your doorstep.
