We stayed at Eileen's house in Cahersiveen with a group ranging in age from 6 years to 43 years old. We all really enjoyed our stay and cannot fault anything from the moment we arrived until the time we were leaving (when we were already planning a return visit to the house). We were late arriving in Cahersiveen for our check in but Eileen took the news of our delay really well and greeted us at the house with a smile and lots of information about the area including recommendations of sights not to be missed, beaches to visit and places to eat. Eileen left us some lovely brown bread and delicious homemade raspberry jam and she also left ingredients for a cooked breakfast in the fridge for us.
The house has an enclosed back yard with outdoor seating where you can sit out in the sun and have a BBQ There is a unique old irish bar setting on the ground floor that now serves as a sitting/dining area with lots of board games and an air hockey table to keep the children (and adults) entertained in the evenings after some lovely days out. There are two other sitting rooms, one on the ground floor and one on the first floor, seven bedrooms and two bathrooms. The house was spotless and contained everything you might need including lots of towels in the hot press.
The location is excellent as it is on the main street of Cahersiveen with a spar shop across the road, and a centra shop, take aways and several pubs a short walk away. There is a playground across the road (behind the petrol station) which was a real bonus for the children. There is free on street parking outside the house.
We had a lovely time and will definitely go back and stay at Eileen's house again and would highly recommend it.
