On arrival on our first night, the lamps were lit in the cottage and the fire had warmed the sitting room. There were flowers on the table and chocolates to nibble with coffee as we wandered and explored this really unique home.
Such care and attention and love has been poured into its restoration. And the extension with they hydrobath and sauna was the icing on the cake. If you enjoy romantic get-aways and seclusion, cosy evenings by the fire, a glass of wine as you soak and look out to the hills, you'll be telling everyone about this break. Only a ten-minute drive into Bantry town and the gateway to Glengarrif, Beara, Sheep's Head, Schull, Skibbereen, etc etc all lovely day-trips within easy access, and so many fabulous pubs and restaurants on every route. Kate has a brochure in the cottage with oodles of suggestions for local activities and things to see or visit. We thoroughly enjoyed a resorative and restful holiday. Míle buíochas!
