Such a nice, relaxing experience!
Claire and Steven are wonderful hosts, who gave us a lot of useful information about the surroundings and the cabin. The cabin itself is amazing, very quiet, cozy and bright, really nice to take some time off. It only takes a few minutes to walk to Lough Hyne which is definetly worth a visit. The trail through the wood ends up on a hill from which you have a great view of the surroundings. We took our kayaks out on the lake and visited the little island in the middle and even saw two seals out in the sun! During the night we were able to see the bioluminescent algea in the lake, which was a real highlight.
The SuperValue in Skibbereen is very good for local produce, so this combined with the easy to use barbecue at the cabin was a real treat.
If you are not an early bird we would definetly reccomend to bring your eyemask as there are skylights in the cabin. Phone reception was very spotty up there aswell, but you can manage to get a signal by walking around a bit. Air BnB also puts a wrong pin in as the cabin location, so definetly use the aircode or the description by the hosts, which was very easy to follow.
We would definetly recommend staying with Steven and Claire and would come back again :)
