We stayed at the cosy cabin in August 21' and were blessed with the weather for the week that we were there. The cabin itself is located about 10-12 mins drive from Clonakilty so would flag that a car is a necessity for those looking to stay here. We tried walking it given the sunny weather but concluded the 70 mins walk (much of it on narrow, windy public roads) was not a great way to get in and out of the town. The beaches nearby were lovely and are a 15 minute cycle - mostly downhill on the way there. The trip back to the cabin from the beach is not a leisurely cycle given the steep hills but for those keen on a workout, it's perfect! The cabin was clean when we arrived with June very kindly stocking the fridge with bread, milk, butter, eggs & bacon to keep us fed on our first evening.
Located just beside the family home with vegetable/plant beds right outisde the cabin, we frequently came across June and her husband Stephen during the day to say hello and get a few tips on our plans!
We had minor issues with water pressure throughout the stay which impacted shower temperature. For those intending on using the cosy cabin as a base for exploring the local area, it's worth noting that the kitchen area is quite small and cooking dinner in the evening can present a bit of a challenge with the limited space. However, with so much to offer locally, we enjoyed eating out for the majority of the stay.
Overall, a pleasant stay in a lovely area of Cork with plenty to offer.
