Vacation Rental Description
This detached, pet friendly cottage sleeps 4 people in the village of Quin near to Ennis and close to Knappogue Castle in County Clare, Ireland.
Dangan Gate Lodge was originally a working gate lodge, now tastefully restored and converted to offer accommodation for 4 people. This detached property still retains a traditional half-door and is faced in stone. The Lodge nestles in the owner’s organic farmland and visitors are able to do a spot of trout fishing in the river that runs through it or walk through the fields to see the rare-breed cows and ponies. A rear garden offers ample opportunity for a spot of summer dining and there is off-road parking for up to 3 cars. The pub and shops are within a 30 minute walk.

The village of Quin is situated 6 miles east of Ennis, in County Clare. With a small population of around 240 residents, this rapidly developing tourist centre is home to a 15th Century Abbey, all year round fishing on the River Rine and an equestrian centre, with a number of stud farms in the area. Two miles from Quin is a 15th Century tower house, Knappogue Castle, which, having been beautifully restored, is open for public viewing between April and October, while medieval banquets are held in the main part of the castle between May and October. County Clare's principal town, Ennis, is just 6 miles away on the River Fergus, boasting a market square and narrow streets dotted with unusual shops, bars and restaurants. An ideal location for touring the counties of Clare, Limerick and Galway.
