Martyn and Val are warm, welcoming hosts with a thoughtfully furnished space. Accommodation included a large and comfortable gabled ensuite; a mirrored desk/dressing table; ample electrical outlets for phone/computer charging; a fridge; cold, filtered water; tea and coffee service; and a private sitting room with a beautiful lake view. The Crosswinds is situated in a quiet rural setting 2 km from Durrus. This location is convenient to the Barra Peninsula, Bantry, Mizen Head and the beach town and beaches near Crookhaven. Martyn cooked a delicious full Irish breakfast and had great tips about places to eat along our route. We highly recommend this relaxing retreat.
