The house is well located, check in is very simple and John is quick to communicate with. Ballydehob is a great base to explore the rest of West Cork, and features some lovely places like Budds for coffee/food and Levis for music and drinks. The house is quite old and not insulated so is a bit cold. In the colder months, you will need to light the stove which makes the house nice and cosy. There was a large box of toys which our toddler loved.
