The cottage was absolutely lovely, with a wonderful view, check in was easy and we were met by the host Jack on arrival (who is a true gentleman). Kathleen was in easy contact throughout the booking process also, and answered any questions promptly (as it was our first time using VRBO).Lots of extras, condiments, tin foil etc in the kitchen that we could use, only downside was water pressure in upstairs bathroom wasn’t strong enough.Unfortunately whilst we were there, there was a problem with having no electricity, due to new solar panels being fitted previously. However this was through no fault of the hosts and Jack & his family including his grandson, were very apologetic and went above and beyond to rectify the problem, which they did, even offering alternative accommodation. We had a great time, wonderful cottage, beautiful scenic place & such a lovely family, we would love to stay there again., and will definitely be back :-)

The cottage was clean and comfortable and in a quiet rural location. It was a great place to relax after a full day of sightseeing or when we just needed some downtime. The host is excellent and answered questions promptly. We will definitely stay here again if we ever have the opportunity to come back!

My girlfriend and I made plans to get married in Ireland in March 2026. After a lot of research we decided this cottage which was perfect for our two week stay. It perfectly located for purposes in Bantry for shopping, dining, etc.. Typically most Americans do not appreciate "strangers" approaching the temporary rented vacation home, but Jack (part owner) was very kind and a great part of our trip (we even fed his cat).. The layout was cozy and typical of Europe. Everything worked fine except towards the end of our stay the water in the downstairs bathroom scalded my wife TWICE without touching the heat controls. The upstairs bath had very low hot water pressure (not good for washing hair).. The fire place was a nice touch being lit when we arrived. Only a few neighbors, and nice and quiet. Loved the livestock grazing nearby, lovely vegetation and plenty of literature for exploring. We would definitely visit again as long as the water situation was addressed. You really can't beat the price, people and safe location.
