Tim definitely went out of his way to ensure I was comfortable and happy during my visit, even providing rides to/from the bus stop unpon on arrival and departure. The place was lovely, very clean and well decorated. Everything you could possibly need -amenity wise- is provided and so much more! It's about a 2ml walk into town, which wasn't a problem for me as I enjoy walking around Ireland and taking in the countryside views. There are also very kind taxi drivers (Declan at Blue Cabs) that were typically available when needed as a backup (wouldn't suggest walking that main road in the dark as half the route has no sidewalk to avoid 100kph traffic).
The location is quaint and close to nearby towns and sights to see but Skibbereen offers a variety of fun things to do too.
I very much enjoyed every moment of my stay here and would definitely recommend it to others wanting a somewhat secluded experience of the West Cork area.
Many thanks to my lovely and very generous hosts!!
