Hector's House. Kilrush Marina. Wild Atlantic Way. County Clare. Ireland

Hector’s House is located in a converted former mill in Kilrush, a few steps from Kilrush Marina. We have recently redecorated the entire apartment and updated all of the furniture. The apartment is well equipped with everything you could need to enjoy your holiday.

The Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen are open plan and have been tastefully decorated and furnished to ease you into the holiday mood.

The living room has a large three seat sofa, two arm chairs and foot stool. There is a wall mounted Sharp 55 inch Smart HDTV in the Living Room that has EIR TV, Apple TV, Netflix and PrimeTV onboard. You just need to log in to your own AppleTV, Netflix or PrimeTV account on arrival.

To help you stay connected during your stay, we are pleased to offer complimentary fibre broadband of 100mbps at Hector’s House. This is excellent for streaming, staying in touch and home-office if you absolutely need to... Double electical sockets with USB ports have been installed in the living area, kitchen and bedrooms for ease of charging phones and other devices whilst relaxing.

We have also provided an Alexa Dot, so that you can listen to music or your favourite radio station or local radio Clare FM whilst relaxing on holiday.

The dining room has a large oak table with six chairs. There is also a Juliette balcony that overlooks the central courtyard, offering the opportunity to catch the early afternoon sunshine.

The brand new Ikea kitchen is fully equipped with electric oven, 4 ring touch hob, integrated microwave, fridge-freezer and dishwasher. There is also a washer/dryer. Six place settings of crockery, cutlery and glassware are provided. Pots and Pans a-plenty so it's even possible to cook a Sunday Roast if you want to... Dare we say, there is even an iron and ironing board incase you feel the need.

The master bedroom has a 5ft King Size Oak Bed, complete with a new (May 2021) medium-firm thermo-sensitive memory foam mattress. Power sockets adjacent to each side of the bed are equipped with USB ports to keep your phone or tablet charged and to hand while you sleep. The master bedroom also has an ensuite shower room with power shower, toilet and wash basin. The mirror in the en-suite features simulated ‘daytime’ lighting and is equipped with Bluetooth so that you can listen to your favourite tunes whilst in the shower! A hairdryer with conveniently located electrical outlet below the mirror is also provided.

The second bedroom has a triple-sleeper bed. That is a full size double bed for up to two adults at the base and above it reached by a small step ladder, a standard single bed which is age restricted to 12 years old for safety reasons. Please note this bed is not suitable for 3 adults. New (May 2021) thermo-sensitive memory foam mattresses are provided on both beds. An ideal room for an adult couple, or up to 3 children, we have provided multi-USB sockets in this room to keep PEDs charged up for the day ahead.

The main bathroom has a bath tub and over-bath shower. There is also a toilet and wash basin. An touch-free LED mirror with anti-fog is provided.

Freshly laundered bed linen is provided for your stay. If you are staying two weeks, please speak to us about organising a change of bed linen after your first week. We are happy to deliver fresh bed linen to you. Guests are reminded to bring their own hand/bath/beach towels with them as these are not provided.

Hectors House is located on the first floor, and has both stair and elevator access. The apartment is located in a residential area, adjacent to Kilrush Marina and Shops.

We think that Hectors House is the perfect holiday home-from-home for families or couples - or even two couples! We hope you enjoy staying in a part of West Clare history and our very comfortable holiday home.

A high quality apartment
Hector's House is an excellent two bedroom apartment in Kilrush. It's clean, has comfy beds, a great living room, lots of hot water, a brilliant kitchen and a super television. The wifi is brilliant. We loved everything about this place. One tiny niggle - on the day we left we found some board games in a drawer in the hall! If we had known about these earlier, we would have used them! Definitely worth adding some information to the house information booklet (which is wittily written by the way), or labelling the drawer. A second pair of keys would have been very useful too. We didn't ask for one, so I don't know whether Scott/Tristan would have supplied. Thanks for a great stay.

Excellent holiday stay at Hectors House. Met by Scott on arrival who showed us around the property and explained the security features, how to use the appliances etc. they also left a small welcome pack of bread, milk etc., which was very much appreciated. Apartment has everything you could want for a self catering stay and was great to come back to at the end of each day. We were always able to park right outside as well which was helpful. The bed in the master bedroom is the best I’ve every slept in. Showers were hot, living area and tv great to relax in front of in the evening. Would recommend this place and would stay here again.

Always something
Great apartment, great location. Everything went as planned, but it is the little things, you know. Lack of manuals for the dishwasher and washer/dryer. Weak instructions for the vents in the windows. Missing some kitchen tools: whisk, ladle, knife sharpener. Like the cutting board and layout of the apartment, the security outside of the apartment itself is mostly non functional. Overall impression: a good place to stay but not perfect.

A perfect stay in Kilrush
The apartment is local centered in Kilrush, a supermarket is directly next door and you can find easily a parking place in front of the house. To check in was very easy and uncomplicated. A welcome basket with some sweets, drinks in the fridge and coffee brings us a warm welcome. The size of the apartment is perfect for a family with 2 kids (our kids love the loft bed), it has generous proportions. You can find everything that you need in the aparment. It was the perfect stay for us in Kilrush to do some trips in North.
