Outstanding views, it can't be beaten. It's glorious in day time, but at night it's just as awesome - we was lucky to have a full moon that week we was staying, and the way it was reflecting off the water over the bay was amazing too.West Cork is a beautiful part of Ireland, and the house with its location is just the icing on the cake. The big garden is great for relaxing in with the epic views and the local bay with its beach is just a short walk down the hill and great for swimming in. We also visited many parts of West Cork, and there's often something happening in the villages/small towns along the road such as in Schull or Baltimore.A must visit.

Belated thanks for a glorious week at your beautiful bungalow in Tralispean. Despite the weather, we swam and explored - had fab shiatsu in a yoga pod at Liss Ard estate and sauna swim at Tragumna and night kayak at Lough Hyne to see the sparkly phosphorescence. And on the last evening whales in front of your house!

perfect accomodation

The view to the seagull-circled, white horse-spreaded rocks and open sea, the cosy furniture and a beautiful city with everything you need close at hand. What do you want more?

Lovely, Peaceful

Our stay was excellent, plenty of walking, the people are so friendly, go for a meal at the Skibbereen Eagle, only a 30 minute walk, helps to burn off the calories on the way back!Try the farmers market on a Saturday, a must for a breakfast, local meats and local cheeses.If going to Baltimore, then the Baltimore Sea Safari is a must. A wonderful experience.Just explore the area, enjoy the nature in the wildlife and the scenery.

Haven by the sea!

If you want to get away for peace, quiet and relaxation, this home should be at the top of your list! Secluded with stunning views, but close enough to a town with great restaurants, shops and groceries. Our favorite was The Church Restaurant. Beautiful stained glass and delicious food. Mary the house caretaker greeted us and made us feel like family and the owner was very responsive. We travel to Ireland yearly to discover new parts of the country and were very happy we chose this place as our home this trip!!

Beautiful home with gorgeous hillsides and lovely ocean vistas!!!

This is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful location with vistas of the ocean and hillsides from the gorgeous house windows and the property. Lovely tropical and local vegetation surround the house. Plants such as roses, gorse and heather are rambling down the hillsides to the bay. We heard and saw seals out on the rockery our first days there. The house has everything you need and is located close to Skibbereen which offers many options for shopping, cappuccino spots and restaurants. This was a great location for our exploring western Ireland. Keith and Mary were extremely helpful with information and suggestions. The internet connection is strong, consistent and reliable. This was great for us as our phones were not working well in Ireland (we are from the States). This is a very quiet home and solidly built. We had a good tropical storm our last few days there and the internet and electrical power stayed strong throughout it. Thanks, Keith, for sharing your lovely home!

Stunningly beautiful setting, huge kitchen and living area looking over the ocean. Confortable beds and linens. Washing machine and dryer worked great, option to use clothing line. Loada of sea breezes kept it cool even during heat wave. Quiet and private but easy and short journey to town. Mary met us when we arrived and helped orient us as no cell reception in driveway (plenty of reception once inside house). Great wifi. Wish we could live there!

Die Lage der Liegenschaft ist einmalig. Der Blick über das Wasser des Atlantiks und die grüne Landschaft einfach ein Genuss und Erholung pur. Im Haus selbst ist alles Nötige für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt vorhanden und bestens einge- richtet.

Ein ruhiger Ort zum Erholen

Das Herausragende an diesem Haus ist sicherlich die Aussicht, sogar vom Wohnzimmerfenster aus. Aber auch alles andere passt für einen ruhigen entspannten Urlaub, egal ob bei Sonnenschein oder Regenwetter. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll und liebevoll eingerichtet. Der Strand ist wirklich nur wenige Gehminuten entfernt. Wir haben uns vom ersten Augenblick an sehr wohl gefühlt.

Besser geht es kaum in West Cork

Ein wirklich sehr schönes einsames Haus in absolut perfekter Lage mit einer atemberaubender Aussicht. Auch die Umgebung mit Mizen Head, Sheeps Head etc. ist einfach traumhaft. In Skibereen bekommt man alles was man braucht. Besser geht es wohl kaum in West Cork!

Tolles Haus in wunderschöner Lage

Ein sehr schönes , bequemes und geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus mit tollem Blick in spektakulärer Umgebung. Gut ausgestattet. Großes gepflegtes Grundstück mit eigenem , freigeschnittenen Pfad zum Meer. Liebevolle Betreuung durch Mary, der Housekeeperin. Zwei sehr schöne Schlafzimmer nach Westen, das dritte Schlafzimmer nach Osten (Kinderzimmer) war nicht so schön und hat in unseren Augen noch Verbesserungspotential.

This is a fabulous house and we really enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you can possibly need and is located close to Skibereen which offers great choices for eating out. The views from the house and garden are stunning, and it is located perfectly for exploring west Cork. Keith and Mary were very helpful and welcoming. Highly recommend.
