This is a great spot to escape from it all for a peaceful weekend with a good book. The house is very cute and comfortable and has everything you could possibly want. It has real character and the owner's quirky taste shines through (in a good way!) in the decor, furnishings, books, etc. But despite the idyllic rural setting, it's only 5-10 mins from Bantry town. The more active will also find the house a great base for exploring Sheep's Head. This is the least well known of the great south western peninsulas but it is probably all the more wonderful for it. Best seen by foot from one of the many way-marked trails, or from a bicycle on the lovely quiet roads.
