The rental property sits on an elevated clifftop site resulting in superb views over a broad expanse of sea bookended by headlands. Situated at the end of a cul de sac development of holiday homes, it enjoys an extra degree of privacy - with no passing traffic to get in the way of those views! The open-plan living/dining/kitchen area is a large, bright space with windows facing east, south and west. The full height patio windows/door open southwards onto a patio with uninterrupted views to the south and west. An open fireplace is surrounded by comfortable sofas, tub chair, movable side tables, a TV with satellite connection, DVD player and radio/cd player. There is also a large range of dvds, CDs and books available for use by guests of all ages and there is free internet/wifi. The well-appointed kitchen is equipped with cooker (with four-plate hob, oven and grill), fridge (with a second, larger fridge/freezer in the utility room), dishwasher, microwave, blender, toaster and coffee-maker. Glassware, tableware and cookware are plentiful and of a high standard. The utility room has washing, drying and ironing facilities and there is a fridge/freezer installed there also. There is an option of three or four bedrooms, depending on the requirements of individual guests - two double rooms and two twin-bedded rooms. One of the double rooms is large and furnished with a sofabed and so can be used as an extra living room/space, or converted to a double bedroom if required. The master bedroom features a kingsize bed with en-suite bathroom (fully revamped in May 2021 to include a walk-in electric shower) and there are two twin-bedded rooms. The main bathroom was completely refurbished in March 2022 and now features a walk-in power shower. The house is centrally heated, sleeps 8 in total and all bed linen and towels are provided. Guests are asked to bring their own beach towels. HOW TO FIND US: (Directions from Clonakilty to the house) These directions are based on the guest(s) arriving in to the town of Clonakilty, County Cork from the direction of Cork City on the N71 road. From Cork City take the N71 to Clonakilty (via Bandon). At the first roundabout you meet in Clonakilty (with a SuperValu supermarket on the right), take the first exit to the left, sign-posted to Ring. Continue on this road to Ring Village. The road runs right beside the water. In Ring village take the first turn right by the water and continue along this road (with the water bordering the road to the right hand side). You will come to a tight corner where the road veers to the left, away from the water - continue to follow this road uphill, until it levels out. Continue on to a T-junction. Turn right and then immediately left at the next triangular junction. Continue on that road for approx 1.5 miles until you reach Ballinglanna. At the end of the hill down into Ballinglanna, you will see a cluster of white houses on the right hand side, overlooking the sea - Ballinglanna Cove. Ard na Farraige (No. 18) is at the very end of the cul-de-sac. Food and Drink: Restaurants around Clonakilty, Courtmacsherry, Timoleague and Rosscarbery cater for all tastes and budgets. These range from take-aways to cafés, gastropubs, bistros and gourmet restaurants. Local specialities and seafood are included in their menus. Wildlife, Birdwatching and History : Wildlife: The sea views from the house change by the hour with the ebb and flow of the ocean tide over the rock formations running just below the house, and the daily comings and goings of fishing boats. There is constant seabird activity and, for early morning risers, rabbits are often to be seen popping in and out of burrows in the grassy slope to the rear of the house. Some guests have even been lucky enough to see dolphins at play in the bay, from the comfort of the living room or patio. Birdwatching: For those with a particular interest in birdwatching, there are plenty opportunities for this in and around Clonakilty and Courtmacsherry Bays. There is easy access and viewing all around both estuaries and lagoons. As you travel to Clonakilty via Ring village you will notice a vast bird population on the estuary and large numbers of Waders feed and roost here from late Autumn to early Spring. Historic Houses/Sites: Timoleague Abbey, Drombeg Stone Circle, Lios na Con Ring Fort, Castle Salem, Coppinger's Court, Michael Collins' Birthplace at Sam's Cross, Ballinacarriga Castle and Castlefreke. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Wheelchair-accessible parking available ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 1 accessible parking space - No elevator (single-level property) - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - Near the ocean ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - No smoke detector (host has indicated there is no smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![TV, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99290000/99285400/99285331/05b8b66d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TEACH CHIUIN, family friendly in Cappoquin, County Waterford Unknown - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor Space - Toys/Games 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-02&endDate=2026-02-03&selected=99285331&PinnedHotelID=99285331&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33610000/33607200/33607134/254280cc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A very special place Co.

I enjoyed sitting on the wall near the boat ramps enjoying the waves and the seabirds and the scenery in general. It was a short drive to Clonikilty, Skibbereen, Mizen Head, and also into Cork, "Short" being a relative term as most of Ireland is a bit of a drive from any point A to B.

If I could give it more stars, I would! We didn’t need for anything and traveling with a teenager and 6 year old, there is always something. Daphne is a spectacular host, answered any questions we had right away. There was plenty of bedding with extra pillows and blankets. The view was completely spectacular, the pics in the listing does not do it justice! Would most definitely stay again! ##### Nora H. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ann T. Oct 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Views We were disappointed that there was no folder on where to shop, eat etc never having been to the area before. Also the small fridge in the kitchen smelt musty so didn't use it. We were there for Storm Agnes which was pretty wild so sea views were fantastic. A word of warning in the cottage that road to Clonakilty was liable to flood would have helped as we were lucky to get back before high tide and the road flooding.. ##### Ann T. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John T. Mar 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Atlantic View Daphne’s property was wonderful, spectacularly situated on a cliff-top overlooking the open Atlantic Ocean. If we hadn’t been on a wedding trip, it would have been tempting just to spend the weekend on the veranda soaking up that panoramic vista. The house and amenities, roomy and well-appointed, were exactly as described, offering a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Ballinglanna Cove. Daphne was in all respects a caring, considerate host, responding promptly snd attentively to our every request or need, before and during our stay. Likewise her friend and colleague, Angela, who went over and above the call of duty to help when we encountered an unexpected transport problem. Daphne and Angela were, in fact, entirely typical of the locals whose acquaintance we made. Warm and welcoming, they were a credit to the country and locality. The reputation of the Irish as a hospitable nation was hugely enhanced at every turn. Add all of the above to the rugged, beautiful quaintness of Co Cork and we had the recipe for a quite amazing visit to the Republic and we certainly plan to return for more. The wedding venues of St Michael’s, Rathbarry and Fernhill House in Clonakilty were the stuff of dreams for the young couple we came to support - and, of course, their guests! From a personal point of view, with a family background of Irish heritage, the visit gave me the opportunity to visit the poignant An Gorta Mor burial site at Aberstrowry Cemetery in Skibbereen. Thank you, Daphne! ##### John T. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deirdre F.
