I really don‘t want to write this comment/rating on the Boathouse, because it might mean that it‘s not available the next time we want to book this place!
It was hands down the best AirBnB experience we ever had, and we had a lot. To start with, the location is simply stunning and offers a great view across the cove, bird nerds and nature lovers will be super happy. We had planned a walking vacation in and around Baltimore and the Boathouse is just perfect for that. Beautiful Baltimore and its shop (it has all you need on a day to day basis) and pubs and amenities are a comfortable 15 minute walk away and there is loads to discover on foot in and around the area.
The house itself is just absolutely lovely, the open plan and breezy interior is perfect and cozy, it has all you need and is lovingly set up and super clean. The hosts Cliodhna and Ber are so warm and welcoming it makes it hard to leave, if ever we had a problem or needed some advice someone was always there to support and help. Ber even gave us lifts to Lough Hyne and Skibbereen, we’d have been lost without her! One thing I especially want to point out is that we had loads of pillows, I usually need three to four because of back and neck problems and am always worried that there will only be one or two pillows, but here I had enough- and good!- pillows. Even though we had some blustery and rainy days, it is always cozy in the Boathouse, especially with the fireplace and the amazing view. Absolutely loved it here and we were sorry to leave… but definitely will be back!
