Lying in a beautiful secluded spot close to the northern shore of Bantry Bay, this enchanting stone-built cottage makes a wonderfully tranquil holiday retreat for families and friends exploring an idyllic corner of County Cork. Close to the border with County Kerry, the property offers ample space for up to five guests with a four-pawed friend eager to discover the region’s magnificent countryside. Perfect for keen walkers and hikers exploring a southern stretch of the Wild Atlantic Way, this stylishly updated getaway features exposed brickwork, timber beams in vaulted ceilings, and a lovely conservatory-style lounge.
Stepping inside this sympathetically restyled property, the light-filled lounge features exposed stonework, ample seating and a welcoming wood burner effect electric fire, alongside windows offering panoramic views of the garden. The lounge flows through into the handsome country-style kitchen/diner, perfect for sharing family feasts. Exploring the ground floor further you will find a soothing main bathroom and the first of the property’s three cheerful bedrooms: a delightful double. Upstairs there are two further bedrooms: a charming double with an en-suite shower room, and a cosy twin with an en-suite WC. Stepping outside, the large garden is enclosed, with plenty of space for your four-pawed pal to run about in peace. There’s also plenty of outdoor furniture so you can enjoy a BBQ on a sunny day as you take in views towards the harbour, the surrounding mountains and Garinish Island.
The glorious Bantry Bay offers miles of spellbinding walks for you to enjoy with your pet as you explore the magical landscapes of the spellbinding Beara Peninsula. Lying beneath the towering Caha Mountains, the bustling village of Glengarriff (2.5 miles) has a fantastic choice of friendly places to eat and drink, with pet-welcoming attractions including the peaceful Glengarriff Nature Reserve and the exotic Bamboo Park.
