Mark was an amazing host. Always went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable. We weren't familiar with the area, but Mark was always really friendly, open to showing us around and helping us when we needed. He always treated us really well and was a great person to be around, which just added to the great experience we had. The house was beautiful and full of history, plus had multiple shared spaces that were great for socializing with other guests, but also offered plenty of privacy. We loved the stay. Really can't recommend this place enough.

The Old River House at Parteen

The Old River House at Parteen, County Clare is a private family house, with a number of annexes, either offering guests rooms in a home share or the option to book exclusive use of the entire house. Currently, the estate offers accomodation in the main house, known locally by its Old Irish / Viking name of Parteen-a-Lax, but is preparing the annex cottages and buildings for booking, starting in the Spring of 2025.

 

The grounds, comprising of eight acres of gardens, woodland and river bank are being reclaimed from nature after a 25 year lapse in management.
