A very quiet location in the deep countryside with a pleasant feel.May be too isolated for some but with a car into Glengarriff in ten minutes and the drive over the mountain to Kenmare approximately twenty minutes.Most items in the property sufficient however if the stay is like ours a month then may be the seating in the lounge needs more and improved.Definitely if there is more than three people.Nice large bedrooms with upstairs having a view and pleasant sounds of the river.We used the oven, microwave and kitchen every day and found the aspect very good even on the very few rainy days we experienced.A few extra items and updates would be useful.A great month stay!

Amazing place to stay we were surprised the home was large and the views from the house were stunning. Hiking trails all around the location and it was easy access for us to explore many gorgeous parts of West Cork.

Check in was hard. We got codes but padlock on gate is on other side so hard to do. No info on wifi before or in house. Could not call from house to find wifi info.- this should be provided at house or before arrival so guests do not have to go all the way into town to call! Do not take road off of mountain- gps took us this way- treacherous. Better entrance 1 km from Glengariff. Pros; large rooms, pretty views, quiet, parking right outside door. Cons; no fans or ac and very warm night, mattresses bad- springs in your back, few trash cans, moldy shower curtain, No instructions on anything- washer, dryer, dishwasher, heat, wifi- coming from the US and not familiar made having no directions hard, motion lights came on in middle of night for a while.
