Just back from a lovely week-long stay in Fern Cottage, which is ideally located in beautiful countryside just outside Eyeries. Sandra was great to communicate in advance of our stay and was there with a warm welcome and lots of tips and info about the local beaches/pubs/restaurants etc when we arrived.
The cottage itself is newly restored, spotlessly clean and very attractive and is set up for all the weather, with patio and garden furniture for sunny outdoor dining/drinks while inside there are blankets, throws and a stove with firewood for the cooler or rainier days. We found it a great base for exploring Beara and loved coming back after our travels to such a relaxed and peaceful setting. It's barely a ten minute stroll along quiet and safe country lanes to Eyeries which has foodstores, post office, two bars and the Eyeries Rocks cafe (loved the calamari) plus plenty of local walks and trails.
Also have to mention Josie's restaurant in Lauragh - lovely fresh food and friendly service in a beautiful setting under the Healy Pass - a gem!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fern Cottage for your stay in Beara, we hope to be back ourselves some day!
