Peter a été très sympas, vu l'endroit ou il habite il nous conseil un point de rendez-vous pour y aller ensemble et vu la route c'est tant mieux ! Une fois arrivé la bas, le paysage est magnifique, perdu entre les aches et la montagne c'est très reposant. Lit confortable, salle de bain spacieuse. Un hôte sympathique, intarissable sur la région et les alentours. Merci à Peter Peter was very nice, seen the place or he lives he advice us a point of meeting to go there together and seen the road that's fine Once arrived in the bottom, the landscape is magnificent, between cows and the mountain it is very peaceful. Comfortable bed, spacious bathroom. Thanks to Peter

It's a beautiful house in the middle of lovley nature. We really enjoyed our holiday there & Peter was the best host ! =)

Peter was incredibly welcoming. His place is a 10 minute drive from Clonkilty which has a LIDL and many pubs and restaurants to chose from. The room is spacious and the house is super clean. All in all Peters place was excellent value for money and well worth the stay.

Peter is a really nice and friendly host! We enjoyed our stay at his house. It's comfortable, clean and nice. Thanks for hosting us. I would totally recommend staying at peters house :)

We stayed two nights at Peter's house, our last in Ireland. Peter's house is very comfortable, the bedroom was cozy and the view was really beautiful. In the morning you can listen to the bird outside. Peter is a lovely friendly man, he told us his stories around the world, and made us feel like home. I would recommend you to stay at his house.

This is a lovely home in the hills of Ireland. Peter is a very welcoming and interesting host. Highly recommend!

we had an absolute ball at Petes house! not only is the home beautiful and welcoming Pete is a wonderful host always up for a chat and full of advice and recommendations. Thanks for the stay and I hope you're now hooked on the Aussie meat pie!

Pete is an amazing Host, very accommodating and friendly. The place is set within the beautiful West Cork countryside with amazing views. easy access to a local store small villages and the coast. great for walking and exploring.

Maison très chaleureuse, ambiance vraiment agréable, on se sent chez soi ! Tina et Jon sont des gens très sympathiques, et si vous êtes amateurs de musique ou de lecture vous y serez très très très bien accueillis !! La maison est très vivante, il y a toujours du monde avec qui discuter, et si jamais il n'y a personne, Lyra et Khaleesi (les deux chiens) seront toujours là pour vous faire la fête !

The DesertSerges place was a lovely break from the hustle and bustle in Dublin. Tina and family are welcoming and it's easy to just do you own thing on a daily basis. I had been traveling without a car and the house is a good trip into either of the near by towns of Bandon or Clonakilty but there are plenty of opportunities to catch a ride with Tina into town or simply ask to be dropped at the bus stop in Enniskean. This was a good place to focus on work (I work online) and exercise.

The owner was so kind as to let me taste her last bit of lovely sloe-gin.

Tina nos ha recibido en su hogar maravillosamente. Su casa es muy entrañable y se ve que hay mucha historia entre sus paredes. Un fantástico sitio donde parar un par de noches para adentrarse en los pueblos del sur de la isla.

Great stay. Very relaxing and cosy place. Recommended. Steve was very hospitable and we were not disappointed. Clonakilty and surroundings are well worth a visit

Great place to stay. Great location, only 2mins drive into the town but yet in a quiet area! Would recommend to anyone. Will definitely be back if it's free again next year! We were made very welcome by Steve and Geraldine (and Clara, the beautiful retriever)

Steve was very helpful and facilitated us with an early arrival as we wanted to get down town to watch Ireland in the Rugby World Cup. The welcome pack of food essentials was much appreciated. Location was perfect for us,very quiet, out in the country yet only a couple of miles into Clonakilty town which for us was a nice walk in and short taxi ride back. Well located to visit all the lovely West Cork towns. Hard to recommend where to eat as the whole area seems to be full of quality eating establishments .Location

This cozy hideaway made us feel so much at home. Geraldine was so pleasant and the loft was so comfortable we did not want to leave. It is clean and homey. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay!

The Cosy Hideaway Steve has here is really that! It was absolutely lovely and all the space in the house was used very cleverly. We were in Clonakilty for a wedding in the Inchydoney Hotel and this was only 6.5km from there, which was perfect. Also having some homemade raspberry jam and bread and butter in the fridge was great for our "morning after the wedding" breakfast! Our little dog Mats also loved it there, so much so that he felt he needed to protect the place from people passing by on the road :D We want to say a thanks also to Steve's daughters who saw us in to the house and for being very accommodating on our arrival time!! Very much recommend this place, especially if you have a car to get around with! -Sanni & Fares & Mats

Had a lovely time in Steve and Gers Airbnb the place is spotless with plenty of space and lovely views . Fair play when we arrived Ger showed us around and left some lovely home made curran cake and home made raspberry jam. Highly recommend this Airbnb.

We were looking for a small, cosy, quiet cottage in the south of Ireland surrounded by tranquillity, green fields and cows :-) and we found it RIGHT HERE in Steves Cottage! Steve, Ger and their lovely dog-lady Clara were wonderful hosts and we really felt at home in their cottage during our stay. We were out all day exploring the wonderful area and costs of West Cork, so we didn't see as much of them as we would have liked to, nontheless we felt welcome and cared about the whole time.

Geraldine and Steve were great hosts and we loved staying at their place. 'The loft' was clean and nicely decorated. We would definitely stay there again :)

Kitty was a warm and welcoming host (as were Bran and Artie)! The renovated grain store was exactly as depicted in the photos...very cosy with all required amenities. Kitty was kind to leave some fresh eggs, homemade bread and jam along with tea and coffee. She also provided some recommendations for restaurants and places of interest. We felt very well taken care of and would have loved to stay longer. Thanks so much for sharing your corner of Ireland.

Very warm and welcoming little farmhouse with the sweetest dogs. Plenty of food for a breakfast the next morning before we headed out. Clonakilty was a great town.

Kitty was very easy and friendly in her communications before we arrived, and proved to be just the same in person. The apartment is a tasteful conversion of an old farm building. It is clean and compact. The beds were clean and comfortable and upstairs there was plenty of room for relaxing with two sofas, and an eating area with kitchenette. Perfect for making breakfast or a quick snack and Kitty very kindly provided some essentials for just that. We found it ideal for our short stay in the Clonakilty area. Thank you Kitty.

We had a great time at the Grainary. It's a beautiful spot, cosy and warm, thoughtfully presented and clean. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Kitty was very flexible and accommodating. She made sure the place was well stocked and cozy warm in preparation for my parents who were visiting from overseas. The house is in a great location. It's a ten minute, or less, drive to Clonakilty, Bandon, and Timolegue. Less than 20 minute drive to some of the most beautiful beaches, it's a good location for exploring the Wild Atlantic Way.

I would highly recommend Kitty's listing. It was exactly what I needed, it was cosy, private and good value for money. Kitty was super in terms of communication, there if I needed her but not intrusive in any way.

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful location. Kitty was so accommodating. Would recommend to anyone.

Lovely quiet fields, birds singing ... Kitty was an attentive host but all was provided, we could have asked for nothing

I booked it for my parents - and they told it was a perfect stay. Beautiful appartment, nice surroundings, very kind host - in a few words very good and very recommendable :) Thanks a Million, Alice

We had a very enjoyable stay at Alice's barn, the views from the living area are delightful, and with the wood burning stove the place gets nice and cosy. It is close to Dunmanway for shops and pubs yet has a nice rural feel. We would recommend staying at Alice's any time.

The house was perfect, fully equipped and extremely cute. The only thing we missed was a pub on walking distance, but if you're looking for some peace and quiet this is a great location.

We had such an amazing week in Ballyhalwick Barn. Alice and her husband were very friendly and helpful. My daughter got to collect the eggs and we could see how the cows were milked. Thanks for everything! We really enjoyed our stay. P.S.: Youghal was a great place for a break - we really liked it there aswell. :) Thank you!!

The stay at Alice's was very pleasant. The very cozy renovated barn is close to Alice's own house; she proved very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed and more. She also gave us suggestions on what to visit and what to do. The small town close-by is nice and provides everything you need for a living. Surroundings, of course, are also wonderful.

Perfect. Alice is the sweetest person and her accommodation is very well located. She welcomed us with some cookies which were very appreciated after the long ride WE had. We didnt see her or her husband much because we were on the road all day making the most of it but you can tell that they care. So much that Alice gave us like 3 pages full of info on what to see and where to eat. We were blown away by all the beautiful scenery and will hopefully be back soon with our daughter this time. She'll get along well with Sammy their friendly dog. Thanks so much Alice.

Was great! very relaxing and peaceful

Alice was very helpful and friendly, we enjoyed being out on a farm but yet very close to the town which had all amenities. Good spot we travelled to Cork and visited area along the coast one day and then headed east and drove the Bears Peninsula all easily achievable from here. The apartment was well equipped had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Thank you Alice.

An absolutely lovely house and fantastic place to spend a very calm and easy holiday. Each room has a bathroom and the kitchen is great. Not easy to find and rather remote, but great experience.

Pearse made every effort to make sure we found the house easily and was was attentive thoughout our stay. The house is big and very well furnished with a lovely kitchen. Plenty of bathrooms as well. You do need a car though as the house is fairly isolated but therefore very quiet. Highly recommended.

This house was great. Really comfy with the kitchen a great place to prepare meals and socialise too. I would recommend staying here if you are looking for that extra bit of luxury. Pearse was also really helpful and quick at replying with any communications. The wildlife surrounding the house was also and added bonus. We would definitely love to go back.

Pearse gave us excellent directions to his wonderful home and was was quick to respond to our quires. The property is as beautiful as it is depicted in the listing. If anything Pearse understates how lovely the setting is. Tranquil country setting to be enjoyed from a modern spacious home. Fantastic kitchen!!!! A great place to enjoy some time in West Cork.

Glenvale is stunning, and we feel lucky to have stayed there and been hosted by Pearse, who was so friendly and helpful. The house is the perfect location to explore beautiful coastal towns of Cork and further. The nearest town is a few miles away, so very easy to drive to, and the setting in the Irish countryside is the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine and a good book. The house itself is beautiful - it's warm, spacious with plenty of communal space and private space as well and an incredibly well stocked kitchen. Pearse's directions were easy to follow, and he met us and kindly left us with some food for the day. It was wonderful to have been visited by the rabbits and farm dogs as well! If you want to see rural Ireland and a gorgeous setting, this place is perfect.

Pearse' s house is great ! So spacious, modern and well equipped ! You will also appreciate the large bedrooms and their private bathroom. Pearse is a welcoming person, always available for information or advise.

Pearse met us on arrival and gave us a great welcome to their lovely house, with basic foodstuffs supplied and a bottle chilling in the ice-bucket. The house is big, bright, comfortable and warm. Four large bedrooms with modern en-suite bathrooms. Situated on farmland on a little country boreen about 6 km from the town, it’s a good place for a quiet country retreat, with a peaceful view out over farmland and woods, and bunnies frolicking in the field. Great summer sunsets from the conservatory. It’s well-situated for exploring all over West Cork if you don’t mind driving, about 30 minutes to Clonakilty, Skibbereen or Bantry. Good wifi. Dunmanway itself is not a holiday destination, but has a selection of supermarkets and we ate good food a couple of times at the Southern Bar. Mostly we had leisurely dinners at home with a good bottle of wine and watching those sunsets (it only rained a couple of days). The open-plan kitchen is well supplied and a pleasure to prepare a meal there. We spent nine days in this house and really found it ideal for our needs, we are an older couple with other family couples visiting, and Pearse’s house felt like home from home.

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic weekend staying in Ina and Jean Luc's country cottage! It's nicely situated in the countryside just outside Clonakilty. We used it as a base to explore many nice villages in the West Cork area. The cottage itself is gorgeous and beautifully decorated. We took full advantage of the kitchen by making breakfast for ourselves each morning :) We didn't get the opportunity to meet Ina and Jean Luc as they were also away during our stay. Despite this, everything went off without a hitch as they communicated everything to us before we arrived, stayed in touch during our stay and had neighbors on standby to help just in case. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic West Cork visit. Almost forgot to mention the seafood in the pubs and restaurants, it was delicious.

It was a very pleasant stay in Ina's nice cottage. We very much liked the privacy the location provides. Very nice hosts!

Ina & Jean were great hosts!!helped us with directions and made us feel really welcome!! Real authentic cottage- perfect getaway!!

We had a wonderful long weekend at Ina & Jean Luc's spot that looked just like the pictures. Being a fashion & decor blogger ((URL HIDDEN) I booked the spot for its charm. I loved the cosy, homely yet tasteful vibe of the place from the cool Moroccan bowls & Smeg Fridge to vintage floral touches. The space is big enough for a camp cot & well equipped. Loved all the coffee gadgets! The space was clean with lovely white linen & towels. The sky lights are a bonus - beautiful to lie in bed and watch the rain/stars. Both Ina & Jean-Luc gave us helpful travel tips on the area and were very warm & welcoming - checking that we were all ok. A high light was the delicious, fresh eggs Ina bought us from their chickens. You cn just taste the difference. We were easily able to explore Cork City and the cost down to Mizen head from there. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful. I great escape from the City! Highly recommended!

Wir fühlten uns direkt wohl in diesem total schönen und gemütlichem Cottage, das genau so wie auf den Bildern aussah. Die ländliche Lage war für uns perfekt, genauso so hatten wir uns das vorgestellt. Die Umgebung absolut fantastisch. Jean-Luc und Ina sind sehr nette und zuvorkommende Gastgeber! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

We had a lovely 2 night stay with Ina in her beautiful converted stables. The studio was immaculately kept and clean, wonderfully decorated and stocked with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Highlights included waking up to find a cow looking through the bathroom window, cooking local produce in the very well appointed kitchen, and sleeping sound in the enormous and extremely comfy bed! Thanks so much for having us to stay - can't recommend highly enough.

We had a lovely time in Clonakilty. It was a fantastic location to see the beautiful coastline.

This property was exactly as it appeared in the photos with everything one would need for a quiet break. I particularly enjoyed the nespresso machine! There was plenty of fresh linen and everything worked as soon as we stepped inside the door (no searching for wifi signal). Fabulous design features such as the Smeg fridge and lovely French country style furniture. Also the vintage style radio provided a lovely backdrop to our evenings. The host was there to meet us on arrival and excellent directions were provided to get to the property. There was little or no interference while we were at the property by the hosts but we always felt they were nearby if we needed anything. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.

This place is magical. It is quite remote and very private, a few minutes away from the town of Bandon in Cork. We drove in from Dublin and it was an easy 3 hour drive mostly on highways but some of our friends flew into the Cork airport which is 30 minutes away. You do need a car to get to the place but being there on those beautiful grounds with the castle and the pond, trees and trails is well worth it. Clare was there expecting us when we arrived and she gave us the grand tour and history of the place. There had been a storm a few days earlier which brought down the telephone and broadband line so there was no wifi access at the time but Clare, Phil and Michele went above and beyond to make sure we were covered while we stayed there - they even offered to cover the cost of a wifi card should we need to purchase one in the town. We didn't need to do that because within a few hours after our arrival the phone company sent someone to fix the wire and we were able to connect with ease. The rooms are very comfortable and the grounds are incredibly beautiful. Everything looks just like in the pictures and they even have rubber boots available to walk around the property when the grass gets soggy after the rain. We were lucky to have several days of sunshine and were able to watch the moon and the stars at night: there is virtually no light pollution since this place is quite remote and there's even a telescope that you can use if you can figure out how to work it. We watched the stars with the naked eye and a glass of wine. It was, as I said, magical.

Our stay at the Earl's Bungalow Castle could not have been better. The home was beautiful and immaculate, the beds incredibly comfortable and it was everything and more than we could have expected. Great Value! Perfect Hosts! We loved every minute.

Clare, a friend of the hosts, made us feel incredibly welcome and made herself available to answer any questions. The house itself was everything we wanted it to be. The estate was conveniently located to Cork and Kinsale, both of which offer plentiful sightseeing opportunities. The grounds, of course, are gorgeous. Not only the castle itself (which looks spectacular), but the grounds also provide space for walks and look like they belong in a fairytale. Waking up and looking out across the field to Castle Bernard is something we'll never forget! Alas, we never saw the goats!

Great accommodation, fantastic location. I would certainly recommend this for a family holiday / get together. We will certainly stay there again.

A wonderful, secluded bungalow in the countryside. Beautiful setting, lots of room, very clean and equipped. Note very many Airbnb's like this one, very special. Loved taking walks in the grounds of the estate and enjoying the country life for a week. The bungalow is superb. Highly recommend to anyone, it's wonderful and very spacious. It's a unique property.

Magical! Exceeded our expectations - everyone we ran into (locals in town to the Bandon golf club owners), we're so nice and welcoming. The house was well equipped for a plush and relaxing stay.

The house is set in such beautiful grounds surrounded by trees and the ruin of a castle in the background. The house itself is beautifully decorated from the very spacious sitting room to each of the individual bedrooms and the kitchen has everything you need to enjoy yourself to the full. It was the perfect location for my family and I to celebrate my father's 80th birthday in style. The house offered plenty of space for all 8 of us and the dining table could comfortable seat another 4. We stayed here for a week and even though the weather was not the best we still wanted to go out and explore the grounds, made all the more easier with the selection of wellies for us to chose from. The walk around the lake is magical and such an amazing selection of trees. Likewise is the walk down to the Bandon River. One of the best things is that it felt so private. At night it was wonderfully warm and cosy sitting around the large wood burning stove enjoying a glass of wine or two. None of us wanted to leave. I have to also mention the bedrooms as they would not be out of place in any 5 star country manor house. I was lucky enough to stay in one of the four poster bedrooms and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We picked Bandon as it was the perfect location for all my family to travel to from West Cork, Kerry and internationally. Cork airport is only a half an hour drive away. Bandon has all the shopping facilities you require and a nice selection of restaurants. We tried Poachers which was recommended on the information pack and we were not disappointed. A really good fish selection also. The information pack was very informative from where to find the wellies, wood for the fire etc. They left nothing out, it was very helpful and thorough. The Earl's Bungalow is a special place and I will definitely be coming back. My only fear is that once the secret is out it will be booked solid.

Words truly cannot express how amazing our stay at the bungalow was. Meeting Claire was delightful, and she gave us a brief history of the property that left us craving more knowledge, so we spent the evening drinking wine and reading for hours - our minds were blown away. The grounds are beautiful, and we were lucky enough to enjoy it for 2 sunny days. We had plans to travel in to town, but the house has such a calming atmosphere we ended up buying food at the market and staying in by the fire. A perfect escape that we will always cherish, and definitely come back to.

Ausstattung war leider nur minimal, abgezähltes Geschirr und Besteck. Handtücher wurden nicht gestellt. Die Matratzen waren sehr ungemütlich.

Great place, lovely location and fantastic hosts. Will definitely book again

The location is amazing and the cottage was lovely. It was only 5 minutes from Clonakilty just as was advertised. It was very clean and well kept with great space outside and plenty of room inside.

El alojamiento es perfecto para pasar unos días de vacaciones cerca de la Clonakilty. Isobel es encantadora y hará todo lo posible por hacer la estancia lo más agradable posible. Aunque en mi caso es por motivos de trabajo, es la segunda vez que nos alojamos en esta casa y probablemente repetiremos en el futuro. Se encuentra bien ubicada si tienes medio de transporte, de otra forma será mejor que busques algo en Clonakilty. La única pega es que el primer día nos costó encontrar el lugar. Por lo demás el alojamiento es limpio, tiene lo necesario para cocinar, cubertería, frigorífico, vajilla... La ducha se encuentra en el piso superior así como las habitaciones, las camas son confortables. Creo recordar que no tenía televisión. Posee un amplio patio donde poder realizar una barbacoa si el clima irlandés lo permite. El área de alrededor es muy pintoresca y merece la pena visitarla. Mi valoración general es muy positiva y regresaría sin dudarlo.

The place is very close to Clonakilty, a very scenic village at the start of West Cork. Isobel was lovely host with great communication. The place is clean and has the cosiest fire to snuggle up with. I would recommend highly.

We had a lovely 3 night stay in Shannonvale cottages. We were in the area for a wedding. The grounds around the cottage were lovely and there was plenty of space outside to sit out. The cottage itself was quite small for 6 of us, but the owners did tell us before we booked that it was more suited to 4 adults and two children. The cottage itself was lovely and quirky and we enjoyed our stay. However, we were disappointed with the kitchen and cooking facilities. We brought food with us to cook breakfast. The cooking equipment was very limited, there was no frying pan or grill. Also there is a gas oven and hob and there were no matches or lighters left to light them. All in all we had a comfortable stay and the owners were friendly and welcoming.

Was für ein nettes Plätzchen! Das Cottage liegt ruhig aber günstig gelegen in der Nähe vieler Ausflugsziele. Es hat sehr viel Charme und Isobel als Host bemüht sich sehr, den Aufenthalt angenehm zu gestalten. Anfragen werden sofort beantwortet, Extrawünsche gerne erfüllt. Unsere Kinder haben sich sehr über die frische Beerenernte gefreut. Beim Lesen der vorherigen Bewertungen muss ich sagen, oft hilft nachfragen! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und werden wiederkommen!
