Situated 12 miles to the north of Limerick in County Clare is the picturesque town of Broadford. Surrounded by the wooded slopes of the Bernagh Mountains, this little town is a popular location for those who enjoy hill walking and cycling. It is also within easy driving distance of Lough Doon - an incredibly scenic place with a picnic area that is ideal for fishing and angling. The impressive Lough Derg - a large and beautiful lake with a number of interesting sites dotted along its shores - is also close by. Broadford itself is well placed for accessing the vibrant cities of Ennis and Limerick - both of which offer great shops, mouth watering restaurants and lively entertainment.
County Clare has so much on offer; boat trips, quirky pubs, seaside resorts and a great tradition for Irish music, all set amidst spectacular scenery such as the towering Cliffs of Moher and the fascinating landscape of The Burren.
Reviews of Lakeside
"A slight problem finding property, but wow when we did , it was fab ,over looking a lake and in its own grounds, it was perfect, all you needed was on site , I would say it was the best of its kind I had stayed at, downside was no vacuum cleaner which was odd, and with a build up of dead fly's it was bad. Sorry to add one final negative, but I would suggest that health and safy would require you to ditch all food condiments left by each visitor (OUT OF DATE)"

"The House was in a perfect location. I would recommend this house to anyone, winter and summer, doing the West of Ireland or Mid Western tourist trails. The house was warm and the beds very comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. A great house for entertaining and a wonderful view of the lake. I can see us renting this again for winter vacations in particular. Thank you again to the caretakers."

"The one and only negative thing I could say was initially the cottage was a little hard to find otherwise everything was wonderful. The views, tranquil surroundings, well appointed rooms and tasteful decor. The cottage is ideally suited to touring we managed Galway, Limerick and surrounding areas easily and the cottage was comfortable and welcoming to return to for a relaxing meal and wind down. We would definitely return and can thoroughly recommend for families or groups of friends."
