This was my favorite stay for my 10 days in Ireland. The Turf Cottage is a great location to explore the Beara Peninsula and have a place to come back to that is comfortable with all the amenities of home. The cottage itself was nicely done and the pictures are spot on and in some cases don't do it justice. Castletown-Bearhaven is a mere 7 minute drive and offers everything you will need for your stay. All communications with the owners were done through the app and they were quick to respond (making sure it was okay to use the fireplace and IT WAS). During our stay, two of the neighbors stopped by for a chat and were super helpful in telling us where we should visit and telling stories, like only the Irish can do. This is not the place to go if you want to sit around watching TV or stare at your cellphone. This is the place to go if you want to get away, sit around a fire, make some good food, drink way to much whiskey you bought during a distillery tour and stumble outside and take in the wonder of the night sky due to almost zero light pollution. I will definitely will be coming back to this part of Ireland and will book the Turf Cottage again. 10/10.
