Unspoilt tranquility. Coming from Dublin, we found it hard to believe that there are still areas of Ireland where you are close to a village yet in the middle of nowhere. This area of Bantry Bay is calm and sheltered, perfect for kayaking at sunrise and swimming any time of day. The swimming spots in the area and passing boaters and kayakers make for great people watching from the extensive lawn or patio. The locals are very friendly, you feel safe and welcomed here. Your hosts are very welcoming and full of information and at hand should you need them. Highly recommended for a family holiday. If you love being on the water, stop your search, this is it.
