wow what a find! The house is furnished so well, spotless, super comfortable beds and very warm, even when we stayed mid November with the rain and wind howling! beautiful location for walks on the beach, beautiful garden that I imagine would be fab in the summer for outdoor drinks/dining/sunbathing. super dog friendly, all previous were clearly well behaved as there is no sign/smell of them anywhere. I suggest bringing a long line lead for any doggies that might like to wander as the garden is not enclosed. You can watch the sun rise and set from the cozy sitting room, a beautiful sight. 7 minute drive to Crosshaven for a great local shop and 10 minute drive to Carrigaline for larger shops and takeaways. Jen the host was so welcoming and full of good suggestions for places to visit.
