A tiny taste of Western Cork
This cottage is an idyllic setting in the country but close to some lovely communities for shopping, history and exploring. Our host, Annette, was wonderful. She is an attentive communicator, and left us with a comfortable converted ‘pig style’ with all the modern comforts.

A week in west cork
We were welcomed by Annette the host who was extremely friendly and showed us around the cottage and gave us plenty of local recommendations. Lovely cottage, dog friendly with large garden for him to play in. 10 minute drive to nearby Clonakilty, a lovely town with superb supermarket Supavalu and easy access to beaches

Beautiful setting
Great communication leading up to our arrival. Great advice on local area and futher afield. We took her advice - less can sometimes be more - and explored and enjoyed the local coastline and experieces to the full, ensuring we have to come back for more!! The fresh eggs and salmon kindly provided were a breakfast treat sitting out in the sunshine and later that evening enjoying our bottle of wine in the setting sun, what a glorious spot and lovely accomodation.

A Wonderful and welcoming home away from home
This is a gem! The pictures don't do it justice. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, a view of the magical hills of Ireland we immediately felt at home. There was an amazing welcome basket of local food awaiting us in the light, fully appointed kitchen. The bed and living room furniture were very comfortable and everything spotless. Patio with sliding doors and apple, pear and plum trees right there along with visits from chickens too. (They were a hoot!) In addition to being a wonderful space, Annette, the host, made everything even better. She responded to all communication prior to and during our stay and gave us excellent information about hikes, restaurants and places to see. Her love and knowledge of her home and county made her an excellent guide. We plan on returning and next time want to stay longer!

Cottage Urlaub at it’s best
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche in Annettes wunderbaren Cottage in den Hügeln vor Clonakilty. Annette hat uns sehr nett mit einem Willkommens Korb empfangen. Den schönen Garten mit seinem hinreißenden Ausblick konnten wir auch mitbenutzen. Noch einmal vielen Dank an Annette für die leckeren Eier ihrer fleißigen Hühner. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
