We were made to feel very welcome by Dolores and Jim and found ourselves tucking into delicious home made scones and bread provided by Dolores on our arrival. We were also thoughtfully provided with tea/coffee, milk and butter. The house was warm and comfortable with plenty of hot water. Beaches towels were provided although only two of our party braved the sea. The location of this beautiful house is stunning. We could watch the constantly changing seascape of the bay from the lounge and kitchen. It made the perfect base for exploring the surrounding area and we thoroughly enjoyed the 'company' of Kevin Corcoran's 'West Cork Walks' that we discovered in the book case. We were given directions to shops and tips about good places to eat. All in all we had a perfect holiday at Ballincurrig House. Thoroughly recommended.
