      An amazing location, right beside the Sea, a perfect spot to enjoy the sunshine and the storm. We had an amazing holiday, the decking area was absolutely beautiful. it really is a restful place and a perfect base to explore all that West Cork has to offer. I want to go back again very very soon.

      A little touch of heaven
      What a wonderful week despite the weather being disappointing. We were so relaxed in this amazing property with gorgeous changing views over the sea. The house is well situated for exploring Cork coastal areas. Cobh and Kinsale were especially attractive. Highly recommend this holiday home.

      Beautiful, clean, sea-side getaway
      The property was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. The cottage was very clean and comfortable with the beds/pillows being the best we have ever had on a vacation. The only thing that could have been better would be directions for the clothes dryer -- everything seemed to be in German on the dryer and we could not understand it. Other than that everything was perfect!

      We traveled to Ireland for our 50th wedding anniversary. Our 7 days on the sea was absolutely breathtaking. The home was one of the best we have stayed in. Thank you

      So tranquil
      House was fabulous, the view and the sound of the sea was just what we needed after a long journey. The heating was a bit fiddly but Doris was quick to sort out. Would highly recommend Mizen Head and a visit to Inchydoney beach . SuperValu store was fabulous . Lots of fresh bread and food.
