Beach House, Courtmacsherry,West Cork,Atlantic Way

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 122 reviews2 weeks ago

Dyane’s cottage is perfect for anyone seeking peace and quiet. The old cottage is beautifully refurbished to meet all modern needs and offers great privacy. A comfortable, warm, quiet and spotlessly clean place a stone’s throw from a sheltered beach. You can hear the sound of the sea going to bed! The kitchen has everything you need, beds are really comfortable. Lovely strong shower with hot water all day. Mind your head, some doorways are low due to the fact that it’s an old building. The location is great for walking from the house, marked walks all around. If you fancy exploring the Wild Atlantic Way, it’s a brilliant starting point, too. Courtmacsherry is a lovely spot and can easily be reached from the cottage by foot in about half an hour. Dyane‘s communication was always prompt & helpful with details about the accommodation, things to do and restaurants in the area. We loved our time in the cottage & we hope to come back again soon for another helping of paradise.

Luxury Eco Cottage by the Sea - Inch Beach

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 22 reviews10 months ago

We had a wonderful stay at Iris's Inch Beach cottage. Great location with a view of the beach. The house was very nice and was a short to walk down to the beach! It was a great launching point to check out the sights in the area; Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, Slea Head Drive and Conor's pass were all a short drive away. Check in was easy with Iris at the bed and breakfast, even arriving late like we did around 10pm.

Sound of the Sea with HotTub

5 out of 5 average rating, 99 reviews1 week ago

Simply lovely, from the very start it was an amazing stay, arrived at the house at an earlier time than check in which was very accommodating of Marie, we found the house very clean and had everything you want, there really is nothing she is missing if you plan on staying and making meals for yourself. It really is amazing layout in the house and lots of space. The hot tub, the bath and the separate shower with the rain shower head and the regular one is really magnificent! The area is so easy to go explore the Dingle peninsula from. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would return again!

Beach Cottage

4.99 out of 5 average rating, 290 reviews1 week ago

The most beautiful place I've ever stayed 🥰 it had absolutely everything you could want, and the hosts were so helpful & accommodating! We usually head to the sheeps head to go on the stunning trails but we honestly loved this place so much we decided to spend our whole time at the cottage instead 💕 it has its own private beach with crystal clear waters, the property has a lovely green almost surrounded by the sea. We spent morning noon and night just out on the grass. The night sky here is completely unbelievable, honestly could've slept outside under the stars it was so peacful with the sounds of the waves. The actual cottage was so charming, had all the homely feel of a traditional cottage with all modern amenities that youd need. Dont hesitate to book this you will not regret it! ❤️❤️

Beach Front Apartment

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 33 reviews7 months ago

Die Wohnung ist sehr professionell verwaltet bei Joan und hält ein was auf der Beschreibung versprochen wurde. Die einmalige Aussicht hat uns angelockt und es ist wunderschön am Abend noch ein paar Schritte auf der Strandballade entlang zu gehen und die Eindrücke des Tages Revue passieren zu lassen. Es hat viel zu unternehmen von diesem Ausgangspunkt aus mit dem Auto (Blarney Castle, Kilkenny Castle, Cork, Ardmore, um nur ein paar Orte zu erwähnen und selbstverständlich Youghal selbst). Kurzum: die Wohnung ist sehr empfehlenswert. Wir würden die Wohnung sofort wieder buchen.

Ilen River Cottage

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 120 reviews5 days ago

We had a wonderful stay – the house is perfect for a couple, super clean, cozy, and beautifully organized. The location is absolutely breathtaking! The only thing that wasn’t ideal for us was the double bed – we both have sensitive backs and found it a bit small and not so comfy for a tall/bigger couple. But that’s just our personal experience . Overall, we truly loved our Easter break. Julie was so kind and welcoming. We hope to come back in the summer to swim and explore more of beautiful West Cork. Thanks for everything, Julie!
