A perfect spot in the country for a great family get together! Would be even better if Wifi was included.

You are in the middles of farmland surrounded by sheep, cows goats and pheasants. The property is well kept, the showers were great and everyone who stayed was really happy. Excellent value for money, and not far from Glengarriff, Bantry, Castletownbear, Kenner and the Healy pass.

Very remote location and house very spacious (both were something we were looking for). We couldn't find a plug for one of the baths / hot tub and the BBQ didn't seem to be finished being built yet. A couple of rooms with twin beds rather than doubles may be worth considering. A few more chairs and a bigger table in the dining area / outside area would also be useful. Overall a very pleasant stay and the views are out of this world! Thanks.
