    We were a group of 4 men on a motorcycle trip. There was secure indoor bike parking which after a long journey in mixed weather was fantastic to let everything dry off. Once in the rooms they were spacious with a double bed each and the showers...

what makes our property special is 1. it's family run giving you the guest first class and personal attention. 2. its location is perfect , close (only meter's) away from the pubs .shops,playground,church and restaurants , in the village . Yet it still offers wonderful sea views and is only a short walk from the beach and the copper mines. 3. for the walking enthusiast there are miles and miles of fantastic scenic walks in all directions from the guesthouse.4 The guesthouse itself is large giving the guest the independence similar to a small hotel but at the same time retaining the very personal characteristic's of a Irish bed and breakfast.5. The location is also perfect for touring west Cork and Kerry and indeed there are many local attractions within short driving distance to tour and explore . for example , the cable car at Dursey island, Dursey island, Bere island,Garnish island, Dunboy castle, Healy pass, the Budhist centre at Drozchen Beara and many more.
