Large house close to town
Maureen is a wonderful host. We had a late check-in, she waited for us, told us how and what to use in the house, recommended places to visit, bought us food, which was very nice of her. The house is located on a tranquil street, but at the same time, there is a shop nearby and only about 30 minutes to the city center. All photos correspond to reality. The house has everything necessary for a comfortable stay, and we felt at home. Many thanks, Maureen, we had a lovely stay and will be happy to return to your home again!

Gallery
Myra was so very helpful with recommendations of places to visit and see, took plenty of time to provide a local perspective of the best places to eat, visit and experience. Thank you so very much Myra!!!

Willow House - Ballydehob
The home was beautiful, all you needed was already available , Katie had left absolutely nothing to chance . Can not recommend this place enough

Happy Sandy Feet·My Modern&Cosy ·
Very good and we loved the simple things of having from teabags to hair shampoo available. Simple things but they make your stay more enjoyable. Communication was excellent throughout the stay. Will stay again without a doubt.

Pebble beach cottage
Amazing place to stay in Dingle. Beautiful spot close to the beach with an amazing hike accessible a short walk from the property. Picturesque and private cottage with extremely friendly and helpful hosts. Would recommend to anyone travelling in the area.

The Old Milking Stall, Baltimore / Skibbereen
I cannot recommend The Old Milking Stall (Tim and Barbara) enough!! I stayed there with my family for 4 days and it was more than we could imagine! Tim and Barbara themselves are so welcoming and helpful, they couldn’t be any nicer if they tried! They provide a thoughtful welcome hamper! And for their home it is gorgeous! So beautiful from the garden to the reading nook, it’s perfect for all! Their pet dogs being your friend is a bonus! If you need any help they are willing to do what they can from taxi advice to food recommendations! If you need a place to stay in Skibbereen, The Old Milking Stall is definitely the place to stay! Thanks again Tim and Barbara 🤍

Ivy Cottage Kilmallock
Beautiful cottage in a great location, spacious and clean with everything you could need for a relaxing break. Clinton was a great host, very helpful. Highly recommend and will definitely return 😊

Mountain cabin in a unique and peaceful location
Had a great few days at Sophie’s cabin! The cabin itself is exactly like the photos, super cosy and clean, with really comfy beds. There’s some really nice hikes directly from the cabin and the village of Allihies is just a short walk away with the beach just a little further but also easily walkable. Would definitely recommend a stay here!
