Absolutely LOVE this home and highly recommend Anne and Gerry's place! In one direction, you are about a 5-minute walk to the beach and in the other about a 15-minute walk to lovely Rosscarbery. The home itself has everything you need; plenty of beds/bedrooms for families, a living area and a large eat-in kitchen with everything you need to cook and a pretty impressive stove/oven! Anne and Gerry were so kind as to decorate their home for us for Christmas and leave us little treats, which were much appreciated. As we were staying in the winter, we all appreciated the bed warmers, which made our beds toasty warm to get into, if we so chose. We didn't get to use the outside iron table, but I imagine in warmer days it would be perfect to sit outside and enjoy the charm of the estuary.
There were games available, although mostly for younger kids (we did bring some of our own) and a television with many, many DVDs. We played the games so did not test the TV. Be aware this is rural Ireland and the wifi is spotty, but for those of you with European service, it should not be a problem. We walked everywhere and appreciated that the Irish wore reflective gear. It is hard to see at night and we carried flashlights, but the gear is a much better choice, if you're planning on walking to and from town.
I think this is a wonderful choice for anyone who wishes a central Cork location to stay or who wishes to be near the beach. Absolutely gorgeous and great hosts!!
