Location of house was great, within walking distance of the village of golleen with shop, 2 pubs, church and tourist centre. Within 10 minutes driving distance of the beaches of ballyrisole (calm water and picturesque) and barleycove (waves great for boogie boarding and surfing). Also only short drive to towns of schull and crookhaven (had lovely food in crookhaven inn) and the magnificent scenery and cliff-side walks of mizen head. With 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms house catered very well for our party of 6 adults and 1 child. Views were lovely including view of fastnet lighthouse from upstairs bedrooms. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen small but large table in sitting room was where we all ate together. House was well equipped with pots, pans, plates and utensils, board games, DVD & CD player. Cooker a little old fashioned but worked fine. Heating could be programmed to come on/go off at set times and radiators threw out great heat. Was great that they could be individually turned off. Fire set to light when we arrived was a nice touch. Only negative was carpets could probably do with a clean, walls could do with a lick of paint and surfaces like window sills could do with a dust. However overall house was very good value for money in a lovely location and I would recommend.
