On the mighty Sheep’s Head Peninsula, this homely cottage invites man and dog alike to get cosy and feel instantly welcomed on a long or short getaway. Surrounded by exceptional County Cork countryside and offering impressive views out across Dunmanus Bay, a stay here is sure to set tails wagging for guests of all ages and any four-pawed pal. Hosting the whole pack, this home-from-home property invites seven guests and one dog to stay, promising endless comfort and cosy interiors to get snuggled up in after days of fetching tennis balls and sniffing out Ireland’s wonderful wildlife.

This two-storey cottage offers a lived-in atmosphere, ideal for those who want to really feel at home and able to get comfortable in a holiday cottage. There are two lounges to relax in on the ground floor, one with an open fire inviting Rover to curl up and drift off, basking in the warmth of the flames. Having spent time relaxing, move into the kitchen/diner and rustle up a delicious meal for the whole pack. Outside you’ll find a garden space that man’s best friend is welcome to run around, however, this spot is only partially enclosed, so care should be taken. Back indoors, move on up to the first floor to find four comforting bedrooms offering two doubles, one twin and a cosy single.

Grab your lead and some doggie treats to head out on an adventure, exploring vast coastal routes and pristine beaches within close reach of home. Let Rover lead the way to Kilcrohane Pier (2 miles) where so many visitors enjoy wild swimming and a rocky cove invites pets to run around, splashing in the water if they dare to face the cold. This destination sits on the Sheep’s Head Way, a walking route that makes up part of the famous Wild Atlantic Way and offers an easy-to-follow pathway for walkies with unforgettable views.

The view from the property is outstanding, the walks are good and the locals were friendly. Good museums to explore in Bantry and Skibbereen locally.
