This is a beautiful cottage about 6 km outside Skibbereen. Brendan was there to welcome me on arrival and show me around. The house very tastefully decorated with muted colours and there is a huge window in the living room so it is very bright. And there was bread, butter, milk, juice and tea and coffee left for us in the small but perfect kitchen.
Two friends joined me for the second and third nights and they slept in the extra mezzanine bedroom and said it was very comfortable. There is a private small garden to the back - sadly the weather didn't oblige so we didn't get to make use of this, more's the pity.
The location is quite remote - but easy enough to find if you follow Brendan's great directions. Try to arrive in daylight!
Skibbereen's a great town, with a really well stocked supermarket, and it's a wonderful location for exploring the Sheep's Head and Mizen Head peninsulas.
