Moy House

The romantic Atlantic awaits at this idyllic retreat on Lahinch Bay

Moy House was originally built for Sir Augustine Fitzgerald in the mid-18th century and occupies a superb position overlooking Lahinch Bay on the County Clare coast. This country house is set in 15 acres of gardens and grounds with mature woodlands and a picturesque river, beyond which sweeps a sandy Atlantic beach renowned for surfing and sunbathing in the warmer months and breathtaking seascapes year-round. Moy House itself is a wonderfully stylish and appealing country retreat deftly blending traditional character and antiques with the best of contemporary design and comfort. Moy House is a perfect intimate venue for an exclusive use wedding, family reunion or anniversary. The setting is also a honeymooner's delight. The spacious and delightful bedrooms benefit from wonderful views, and the kitchen, where breakfast and dinner are prepared, is open for guests to use at their leisure. Dinner is an intimate affair in the conservatory restaurant overlooking the Atlantic. General Manager Brid O'Meara creates an air of unobtrusive yet efficient service. Freshly picked herbs from the garden and locally sourced produce all invigorate a gourmet dining experience to remember. Fortified by a hearty breakfast, there are any number of sightseeing and sporting activities to choose from including surfing and horse riding to name a few. Lahinch is synonymous with golf, offering both Lahinch Championship links course and the Greg Norman designed links course at Doonbeg. Golfers, walkers, and sea bathers can depart from the front door. Further afield the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren and the Aillwee Caves beckon.
