Beyond the Cliffs: Heritage Walk at Moher Cottage
oin us for a stroll beyond the cliffs, taking in St. Brigid’s Well and the Cornelius O’Brien monument on our family farm, before returning to Moher Cottage for Kevin’s handmade fudge and Ireland’s Best Coffee all made in our 1800s cottage.
A relaxed walk, shared stories, and a warm welcome
What To Expect
This is an intimate local experience, hosted by the family behind Moher Cottage, designed to slow the pace and offer a deeper sense of place beside the Cliffs of Moher.
You’ll be personally welcomed by Caitríona or Kevin before setting out on a gentle walk to St. Brigid’s Well, a place of local spiritual significance still visited today. From there, you’ll visit the Cornelius O’Brien monument, located on our family land, and hear the story of the man who first opened the Cliffs to visitors in the 19th century.
The experience concludes back at our 1800s cottage, where you’ll enjoy a tasting of our handmade fudge alongside Ireland’s Best Coffee, with time to browse our curated collection of Irish artisan gifts.
This experience is ideal for visitors who want something calm, meaningful, and personal — a chance to meet the locals away from the crowds.

Customer Testimonials
“A Must-Stop Gem Beside the Cliffs of Moher! Moher Cottage is an absolute delight. The coffee was rich, smooth, and perfectly made — easily one of the best I’ve had in Ireland. The blueberry muffin was fresh and bursting with flavor. And the homemade fudge? Simply incredible. The shop itself is full of charm and lovely gift items, and the staff were warm and welcoming.”
Geoff Hassett, Ireland
Beautiful cottage overlooking the coastal line. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy your coffee and treats outside. Friendly staff and excellent customer service. We ordered chia tea and fudge which was delightful. It was a nice stop along the way to the Cliffs.
David Plasmeijer, The Netherlands
“We stopped here on our first trip to Ireland and it was definitely our favorite stop of the whole trip! Incredibly warm and welcoming staff, great coffee, and a fabulous selection of local goods to take home. An absolute must on your list of stops when in Ireland.”
Kasey McClymonds, United States
“Perfect place for a pit stop while touring West Clare and the Cliffs of Moher. Don’t bother with the crowded cafes on the Cliffs of Moher, make the 3 minute drive down the road to Moher Cottage. Plenty of parking space and the Best coffee in Ireland in our opinion with the most amazing views out towards the Atlantic.”
Steve H, United Kingdom
“We visit Moher Cottage regularly when staying in Liscannor over the spring and summer months. There are many coffee shops in the region, however this is our number 1 spot due to the wonderful staff and fantastic coffee. Caitriona, Trish, Marie, Sarah and Leanne are all so lovely and warm hearted.”
Dave and Fiona Gilbourne, Ireland
“Great coffee with a million dollar view. Visited twice during my few days in Lahinch. Perched upon the heights near Liscannor, adjacent to a memorial to Ireland’s Father of Tourism Cornelius O’Brien. Caitriona, who runs Moher Cottage, is blazing a trail by actively preserving the heritage of the place. Loved the scones!”
David Lohan, Ireland
“We visited Moher Cottage on the advice of friends from the area. Lovely staff, met the owner who spent some time talking with us. There was ample parking and a panoramic view of Liscannor Bay. Beautiful. The toilets were very clean. Toasties were delish.”
Grahame Rumsby, Canada
“Great cup of coffee, superior photographs by the friendly proprietor, good gift selection featuring local artisans AND a stupendous view! Handy to Cliffs of Moher.”
Joan Crisman, United States
“I love everything about this charming little shop and cafe. The coffee, tea, fudge, lemon drizzle cake are all divine and that beautiful view over Liscannor Bay. They stock a lovely selection of art and gifts in the shop too. It is so nice to find somewhere a little bit different and away from the madding crowd.”
