"This property is perched at the end of a cul-de-sac overlooking the Atlantic and some of the Irish seacoast. There are lots of windows to enjoy the views. The house is clean, very well-stocked, and offers guests a chance to have a memorable get-away. I would definitely return here if I am coming back to Ireland."

"My son and I very much enjoyed our stay. The cottage is very comfortable and clean. The location is just outside of Kenmare, up a winding road that is in very good condition. The directions to the cottage were easy to find, look for the blue bicycle! Marcus, the host, is a warm and caring fellow. The cottage is on his property, between his home and his artist studio, but extremely private with its own, separate driveway. The location is very peaceful with views of forest and the hills in the...

Our stay of 10 nights went by far too quickly and can highly recommend this beautiful and very spacious property. We will never forget the wonderful hospitality from John and Carla. The welcome basket was very generous. The days were filled with trips to beautiful local places such as Skibbereen and Clonakilty. The views...

"This property had it all. It was in a great location, close enough to small towns like Clonakilty and to Cork to reach easily, but far enough away to give it a country feel. The property manager is quite simply one of the nicest people you would ever want to meet and gave us some great pointers for getting around the area. The house was clean and had all of the amenities that were needed for us. A great stay all the way around!"

Patio with sliding doors and apple, pear and plum trees right there along with visits from chickens too. (They were a hoot!) In addition to being a wonderful space,...
