A very special place. Located on the estuary the cottage feels remote, with amazing sunsets and bird calls. However, the beach and village are just 10 minutes walk away in either direction and being so close to the main road it’s easy to drive to many of West Cork’s towns, beaches, attractions and walks.
The kitchen is very small but we managed to cook in it most evenings. After eating fish and chips from an amazing local pop-up van we had to try hard to resist the lure of fish and chips every night! The pizzas from Oak Fired Pizza in Clonakilty were also really tasty.
The cottage is perfect for children, with loads of toys and books, and a lot more than we expected in the garden (as well as a playground within walking distance in the village if the garden toys, swings, slide, trampoline, adventure climbing frame and toy tractor were not enough). There are also plenty of activities for young children in the wider area, including the swimming pool at the local hotel. There’s so much to do that we’re already planning our next trip, to take in the places we weren’t able to visit this time.
Sarah was really friendly and responsive to any queries we had. Thanks for a great trip.
