Do yourself a favour while travelling through Ireland; do not follow the route provided to you by Google Maps. It is a great service but despite having their European headquarters in Dublin, Google does not understand Irish roads. If you use their route finder it will take you via the shortest route but that will mean you will end up on some of our skinny L or Local, roads which will make you trip a lot more challenging. Stick to the M, N and R roads and avoid the L roads where possible. Use google as a tool to know where you are but do not use it to tell you where to go.
This route brings you to Limerick on the M7, then Ennis on the M18 before heading to Doolin. The first three hours are on motorway and the last half hour is mostly on a good N road. This is the easiest route and the one we use ourselves. Allow 3.5 hrs driving time.
