This cottage was a lovely spot from which to explore west Cork. Bean and Irene were welcoming and helpful, showing us the features of the cottage when we arrived and helping us run a load of laundry during our stay. The location feels remote but is just a few minutes from Bantry with restaurants, shops and groceries. There is also easy access to hiking trails and some beautiful drives for days when the weather is tough. Having a bed on the first floor was accommodating for my mother while the “kids” slept up top. The only snag was that the wifi was out during our stay which slowed down one of us who had to deal with some business during the visit. This was an unforgettable stay.
