The farmhouse is a lovely property with a large kitchen and a comfortable lounge, and a decent sized main bedroom and bathroom. The house is in a rural position so can be a little difficult to find but not too far from Skibbereen and is handy for exploring the local area.
The house itself was clean on arrival but we did have several issues with this letting. There seems to be a lot of ‘stuff’ around the house in case people need it but this made it feel a little overwhelming. The house is obviously set up for families but as a couple this clutter didn’t endear the place to us.
Of particular concern was cooking utensils and equipment stuffed into kitchen units in a muddled manner and the fact that quite a bit of this had been put away dirty. When we mentioned this to Maire she immediately apologised and acknowledged that she needed to do something about this.
