We stayed for three nights over the June bank holiday weekend and enjoyed our time very much. Bean and Irene were away but their friend Aoife who also lives in the grounds was there to meet us, show us how everything worked and gave some suggestions on pubs and restaurants in Bantry.
Chalet is in fantastic location overlooking Bantry bay, whiddy island and Beara peninsula. Views so good and chalet so comfortable that we stayed in and enjoyed long evenings on 2 out of 3 nights.
Bean answered all questions and queries re directions, facilities and arrival time very promptly before our arrival.The chalet has good kitchen facilities,kettle, toaster, microwave, stove, coffee maker, full fridge, (no oven) and plenty of pots, pans, dishes and cutlery. There are 2 sleeping areas one slightly bigger than other, in my opinion the smaller 1 is more suited to children as there is restricted head height due to mezzanine layout. There is good seating area in main chalet and out in porch area with fantastic uninterrupted views of bay.
Bantry is short distance away to the left and Sheep's Head Peninsula/ Goat's Pass with great walks, scenery, nature to the right.
Great place, great value.
