Restful, cosy, authentic.
We stayed for five nights in early September...gorgeous cottage, sensitively restored clearly much-loved home....character remains, with added coziness (not always achievable in old country cottages in Ireland!) Wood burning stove ideal, heaters work well, comfortable bright bedrooms, fabulous old furniture downstairs and interesting crockery pieces.
Slept like babies....wonderful quiet. Village at your feet, plenty going on there and Budd's cafe especially accommodating of long coffees and wifi use (great scones, and FABULOUS evening meal). Ballydehob was a great base to visit remoter areas of west cork, very good choice to explore the area.
Fully recommend!
