  • "A perfect house for a multi-generational holiday."

    Plenty of spaces to escape and read or relax. Good clear instructions in the manual on working the heat , oven, TV etc. We had a power cut for several hours after a lightening storm. We were a little worried we didn't have a local contact if the appliances didn't come back on after power cut. Happily, everything worked. We really enjoyed your lovely house and are happy to recommend it .

    Dear Ms Bacon. It is very pleasing that you enjoyed your stay in our house. Glad also that the lightning strike did not disrupt your holiday too much. Thank you for your recommendation also. It is good to receive such positive feedback. Property Owner

With a south-facing garden overlooking the picture-perfect green fields and onto Cape Clear Island and Knockaphuca Mountain, this home really is the ideal setting for your next break to Ireland.

Step inside to find a spacious hallway with a wooden staircase leading to the first floor.

On the ground floor, there is a sitting room, home to a TV and plush seating for your evening relaxation.

From here, the extendable dining table opens up to seat 10 guests, perfect for family dinners after a fun-filled day, and from here, you can make your way to the sunroom and out onto the tiled patio.

Completing the communal areas on the ground floor is a handy utility, where you can freshen up your clothes and towels with the washing machine and tumble dryer, and there is also a cloakroom with a basin and WC for extra convenience.

The first of five bedrooms, a king-size with an en-suite shower room, rests on the ground floor, while upstairs lies four more spaces to rest your head.

With Coorlacka resting in a prime seaside position, you will be within easy reach of two beaches, Ballyrisode, home to water sports, and Barley Cove, often regarded as the best beach in West Cork, with sand dunes with a boardwalk down to the beach, surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and a car park for ease.

From the doorstep of Coorlacka, you can find a wealth of walking trails to enjoy too, with plenty of information available at the village tourist office.
