Our stay at Bean & Irene was one of the highlights of our trip. Everything was absolutely perfect. The place was even better than described with breathtaking views of Bantry Bay and its surroundings. We had planned on visiting the Cork and Kerry regions but ended up spending most of our times in and around the cottage on the Sheep's Head Peninsula which is readily accessible from the Cottage.

Bean & Irene are incredibly warm and helpful hosts, always there to lend us a hand with little requests we might have had. They also have great helpers which our kids greatly enjoyed: their two charming daughters as well as their happy dogs Maly and Goggy (which our kids took on a walk to the nearby beach).

Our only regret is that we were not able to attend one of their venues in a nearby pub. Maybe next time!
