Welcome to a step back in time. Williamstadt House is a beautiful Historic Country Manor House nestled near the banks of Lough Derg in the heart of southwestern Ireland. This Georgian Beauty is set amidst mature lush gardens and lawns with a variety of specimen and fruit trees and surrounded by centuries old beech, ash and oak trees.

The house boasts a private fifty acre wood which runs along the lake with trails for hiking and horse riding and its own private harbor for boating and kayaking. The park like setting allows the visitor to truly enjoy and experience a place out of time, where life takes a slower pace. Relax and take a swing beneath a 300 year old chestnut tree and watch the light play on the hills of Tipperary across the lake, enjoy an evening badminton game on the lawn, drinks and dinner under the evening sky, shimmering with stars. Soak in a beautiful Victorian bathtub and get cozy in front of a turf fire in one of the comfortable well appointed reception rooms.

The Courtyard at Williamstadt House many features including a two bed two bath cottage in the 200 year old Coach House, Known as the GameKeeper's Cottage (HomeAway listing 960200). It is newly rennovated with all the modern amenities, and makes a nice addition to the main House.

Williamstadt House and its environs provide a paradise for hiking, cycling, horse riding, water sports, fishing, golfing and wildlife viewing. For touring Ireland, it is the perfect base, being just an hours drive from Shannon Airport, an hour from Galway City, an hour from Limerick and 2 1/2 hours from Dublin.

Feature attractions within an hours drive include The Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, Galway Bay and the beaches of Lahinch and Fanore, Galway City and Bunratty Castle and Folk Park.

Williamstadt House is located one mile from the village of Whitegate, an easy stroll or cycle down small country lane. Nearby towns include the beautiful lakeside village of Mountshannon and the Historic Killaloe, with restaurants, pubs, shops and local farmers markets. This area is renowned worldwide for its Traditional Music and sessions happen in the pubs on many an evening. The world famous Feakle Music Festival happens here yearly. There are many Golf Links in the area, Portumna and East Clare among them. In season there are thousands of acres of private land available for Deer Stalking as well as Duck, Pheasant and Woodcock Shooting.

A Fairy Tale Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: October 4, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Our party of four teenagers and four adults felt truly privileged to spend a most magical week at Williamstadt House. Carole and Kevin were the absolute epitome of graciousness. They made every moment of our stay completely splendid, leaving no detail unattended. They welcomed us into their amazing world, and we were immersed in local warmth and authentic, Irish experiences. Their beautifully appointed home set in the lush, Irish countryside was full of charm, whimsy and lovingly detailed decor. Williamstadt is a jewel, surrounded by gently rolling hills and the nearby silvery waters of Lough Dergh. It is a stunning destination and history lesson all by itself.

There were activities for everyone, whether that involved a good book by the fire, strolling the grounds, feeding the chickens or bird watching in the garden. More active pursuits included hiking, biking, golfing, hunting or horseback riding. Carole made any excursion possible, and was an extremely knowledgable and patient tour guide. She literally knew the answer to any question asked of her. In an all too short week, we were able to see the Cliffs of Moher, Portumna Castle, local Irish work houses, monastic ruins, towers, cemeteries and a wonderful array of pubs. Our group explored, hiked and rode around the gorgeous, green wilderness and Fairy Wood surrounding Williamstadt. Irish atmosphere abounds in all corners, and all of our dreams of Ireland were completely fulfilled. Shannon Airport was less than an hour away, which made our exit quite convenient, allowing one last tour stop at Bunratty Castle and Theme Park.

As a bonus, we rented the perfectly renovated Gameskeeper's Cottage for our teen boys to share, adjacent to the main house. Although the main house itself was more than ample space for our party of eight, the cottage was a fun "extra" option for our group, and beyond cool for the boys! It was an utterly unforgettable, fairy tale vacation. This is how we all have described our precious time at Williamstadt. Kevin and Carole, we can never thank you enough.

Williamstadt House

5 of 5
Submitted: September 9, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Our stay at the Williamstadt House was wonderful. Coming from the suburbs in the States it took a little time to get adjusted to this country setting but once we did, it was all great. The facilities were "unique" in the sense that you were stepping back in time but had all the luxuries of 2012. Our Hosts were two of the nicest and interesting people we've ever met in our travels as a Family. County Clare is a beautiful place and perfect for making daily road trips throughout southern and western Ireland. Great pubs are found everywhere and as stated earlier, the countryside is absolutely beautiful (rain or shine). We would definitely recommend both this House and location, if you really want to see Ireland outside the major cities. Our Hosts....Carole & Kevin...are worth the trip alone!

Awesome Family Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: June 1, 2011 Stayed: August 2010
This was hands down one of the most memorable family vacations ever. We are a family of seven with three daughters 17,15 and 11 and two grandparents.So there were many needs to accomodate. Williamstadt House was beautiful and comfortable and it was the excusions that Kevin and Carole helped us arrange that made the trip so unforgetable. The two weeks we had there were pure heaven; that included horseback riding, bicycling, exploring castles even kayaking. Kevin arranged for us to fish on Lough Derg and we caught six trout(not kidding) in one day! The only stressful time was trying to get the girls out of the indoor swimming pool! We will defintely be back. Trout beware!

Spectacular house and grounds, nearby

5 of 5
Submitted: April 26, 2011 Stayed: August 2007
Williamstadt House is a fantastic place to stay and a great base from which to tour the lovely countryside of Ireland. I've done it twice so far and am ready to go back again. The house and grounds are gorgeous, a combination of a vast and lush open yard around the house, and wooded acres across the street that slope down to the beautiful Lough Dergh. We rowed across the lake in the evening to a little village called George Kennedy, where the local pub featured "trad" (traditional Irish music). It felt like a movie.

The house itself has so much character and charm; I love to wander from room to room, looking at the eclectic furnishings and paintings, enjoying the fireplaces and soaking in the lovely Victorian tub in a bathroom the size of my kitchen! Around a cobblestone courtyard are some very cool stone "outbuildings", one of which has a huge fireplace. They call this spot the "pub" and cook in the open fire.

The entire place has such an incredible atmosphere, comfortable and homey but very cool and fun at the same time. I love the nearby villages of Mountshannon (great pottery shop) and Scariff (check out the hardware/general store- you won't believe the sorts of oddities you can find there). The Irish are known for being friendly and it is absolutely true- as is their reputation for having the gift of gab- you'll never have to search far to find someone to talk to.

Day trips to Galway and the Burren/Cliffs of Moher are easy, as well as to Portumna, where there is a lovely country club and golf course. We also traveled farther west, to Connemara, which is a must-see. We spent a great deal of time outdoors, walking and exploring the various towns and villages.

I haven't found anything I didn't like about Ireland- even the cool weather. It's a nice change from the hot and steamy New York city summers.

Owner's Response: We haven't found anything we don't like about Ireland either! So glad you were able to enjoy
the beautiful countryside and nice weather. You crossed the lake to Garykennedy,
(sorry George!) who's wonderful pub is famous for it's traditional music and lovely food. We welcome you back to our abode anytime!!

My Dream Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: April 26, 2011 Stayed: August 2010
I spent the most incredible week of my life at this house, it was like a dream vacation. The grounds and surroundings are gorgeous, while the house is like walking onto a movie set with the ideal Irish country house as the main attraction. The vacation allowed us the flexibility to swim on demand in our own pool there at the house, while also having the lake close enough by to enjoy the water. The town and the people are so warm and friendly that you never feel like a stranger!
