John's bothy in the valleys of Beara is an extraordinary, beautiful hideaway. A bit tricky to find and a good deal away from the next biggest city, but all the more beautiful. We loved the spacious one room setup, which was much more spacious than the images suggest. The stove was easy to handle and gave a cozy warmth on the colder days and the DVD and book collection kept us busy on the wet ones. The kitchen had everything we needed, the barbecue outside was handy for preparing fresh fish. John provided us with some fruits and his wife even baked fresh, lactose-free brown bread.
We enjoyed our stay very much and would love to stay again in this snug little house.
