About this property

Stunning 3 bed with Sea Views - 5 mins from beach!

Hosted by a seasoned Super host, this beautiful three bed cottage is located on the Wild Atlantic Way on the spectacular Beara Penninsula in West Cork. Situated on one acre of lush private land, the house is nestled between the Caha mountains and the waters of Bantry bay and offers panoramic sea and mountains views. The location allows for the perfect mix of being immersed in nature and yet a quick 5 minute drive from the pretty town of Castletownbere where you will find all amenities.

The stylish house is ideal for families and comfortably sleeps 8. There is a large fully equipped kitchen with patio doors. A large living room and dining space with panoramic seaviews and an open fireplace. The large master bedroom has a double bed, an ensuite shower room and a patio door leading out to the garden. The large family bedroom has sea views and has a double bed and a queen bed. The third double bedroom also has seaviews. The house includes a second shower room just off the hallway. There is a large patio area to the front of the property where you can catch the sunrise and sunset over Roaring Water Bay and Bere Island. It is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine and relax after a day of outdoor activities including mountain walks, sea swimming, kayaking, golf, horse riding, hiking, and sailing.

The rugged Beara Peninsula has maintained its status as one of Ireland’s best kept secrets in a small part because its winding rural roads are too narrow for tour buses. This makes it a very special place and has some of the most breathtakng scenery in the world. Witness Exotic greenery, which can survive the Irish winters thanks to the warm Gulf Stream.


The house is less than 2km from the bustling village of Castletownbere where you will find all amenities including a supermarket, restaurants, pubs, cafes, butchers, fish mongers, delicatessin, health food store, medical centres, post office, shops etc. Known as Ireland's fishing capital, if you are a fish or seafood fan, this is the haven for you. Drop in to the famous MacCarthy's Bar, which has been in the same family for 150 years, and enjoy a pint, the local food, live music and unequivocal community spirit.

Perfect Stay

The pictures can’t do the property justice. The views are absolutely stunning and the sunrise and sunset in the winter can be seen from in the house itself. The kitchen is spacious and the bedrooms were nice and cozy. The WiFi was fast and perfect for someone looking to get work done. I will definitely be back to stay.

Peaceful location

Had a great 5 day stay in this bungalow on the Beara peninsula! The cottage was comfortable and peaceful, located high on the hillside with a view across to Beara island. Provided a great base to explore the area and Rercy provided a lot of useful information for activities and dining out.

Great Location and Views!

Enjoyed our stay at this property. The patio area and views from the house is very relaxing. The property is in a great neighborhood which is very quiet and private. A perfect location to see the sights of the Beara peninsula. The property manager was very responsive to communications.

What a lovely place to stay! We were a group of 7 girls here for a long weekend in February and we absolutely loved it. The cottage was a perfect base for Bere Island and a night out at mccarthy's. The terrace was stunning with sun flowing in to the living room all day! We ate in a lot too as the kitchen was really well stocked with equipment and spices. Thanks Rercy :)

Very plaisant stay

We had a very plaisant stay in the cottage. The house was clean and ready to welcome us. We had everything we needed for cooking (the frying pans are very used and should be changed), thanks for the choice of spices! The view is amazing and the terrasse comfortable. We were a bit disappointed by the garden wich is not cut and full of brambles... The check in and check out were very easy, and the communication with the owner very fast and easy. Thanks for the informations leaflets left in the house! We globaly had a very comfortable stay!

Bungalow mit fantastischer Aussicht

Insgesamt ein schöner Bungalow mit drei Schlafzimmern, in dem man sich wohl fühlen konnte mit einer großartigen Aussicht auf die Insel Bere und ein guter Ausgangspunkt für diverse Wanderungen. Leider neigen die Räume etwas zu Feuchtigkeit, die man nur schwer mit gut lüften und heizen weg bekommt. Die Sauberkeit in den Wohn- und Schlafräumen war gut, allerdings hätten wir uns den Kühl-/ Tiefkühlschrank und die Spülmaschine sauberer gewünscht (es waren noch Essensreste vorhanden).
