Plan to go to Loop Head, travelling from Doolin. Want to stay in a B&B close to there, and appears Kilkee would be the closest town of any size that might have a place to stay. Is there a better place than Kilkee, and has anyone stayed at a place near Loop Head that they like? It would probably just be for one night.
I would recommend Hillcrest View in Kilrush: http://www.hillcrestview.com/ I assume you are only spending one night in the area? Because the keeper's cottages at Loop Head Lighthouse are for rent. I don't know what they are like but the setting is spectacular.
There is a farmhouse B&B out in the countryside but I don't know what it is like inside: http://www.westclare.net/anvilfarm/ The outside looks well-kept.
