Description
We have a small family-run guesthouse located on Clare Island (off the west coast of Ireland). The island is a 25 minute ferry ride from the mainland and is home to around 150 people. It has some amazing scenery, great walks and—even though it is small—it has a busy nightlife in the summer months. There’s always lots of music, fun and visitors from all over the world.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
At our guesthouse on a beautiful Irish island, you'll immerse yourself in local culture and become part of our community. Engage in language exchanges, enjoy traditional Irish music, and experience the rhythm of island life. You'll also learn DIY skills and guesthouse management, all while surrounded by stunning landscapes. This is more than a visit—it's a chance to actively participate in island life, blending learning, cultural exchange, and true Irish hospitality.
