The Black Gate Lodge is a lovely place to stay, and Annette was very helpful- meeting us in the village, and giving us lots of advice on places to go. The apartment was well kitted out and very cosy, and the bedroom has incredible views onto the sea. It feels remote but is also not far from the villages of Kilcrohane and Ahakista, which have some nice pubs and friendly locals. It's only a short walk to the sea, and also not far from the end of the peninsula, where you can do some walking trails. Would strongly recommend!
