Our Bere Island experience was peaceful and the scenery was a treat. A place to assess your future plans and life. Beautiful trails on the Beara Way. Views of the evening skies, Castletownbere harbour and Hungry Hill were calming from Zoe's. Property has all you need, even chairs for chilling and absorbing the surrounding views. It was a pleasure to bring my folks back after 45 years ago where they sailed and enjoyed the island in their youth. My folks love a good fire burning into the night. Zoe was generous with supplying us with logs and the essentials. The standard of pints on the island was more than satisfactory for the folks and the locals nice to chat too. A return trip on the ferry in the car was €40. Plenty to do on the mainland; hikes, galleries and coffee even chess on a Tuesday. Garnish, Dursey and boat trips are a must. Nice to return to Zoe's after a day out.
