This impressive rural retreat is just a mile from Leap, a village on the Wild Atlantic Way at the head of the Glandore Harbour estuary. Just 2 miles from the doorstep, Glandore is popular among both yachtsmen and landlubbers, with welcoming inns and eateries overlooking the waterfront which is the setting for a fiercely-contested calendar of sailing regattas. Across the water, Union Hall is surrounded by lush green hills while its harbour is home to an active fishing fleet and the waters are calm enough for sports such as canoeing. Head cross-country from here to Reen Pier (5.5 miles) where you can join a wildlife-watching boat trip – minke, fin and humpback whales all feed in the rich waters off County Cork. For a step back in time, head 3.5 miles to Drombeg Stone Circle, a 3,000-year-old monument that’s one of the best-known archaeological sites around Ireland.

With lots to do on the coast and in the countryside close by, this high-end holiday home offers all the creature comforts to help you unwind and enjoy downtime with your nearest and dearest. Detached and with views over the surrounding fields, it welcomes you into an open-plan living space where four can cook, dine and stretch out at the end of a busy day. To one end, the kitchen has everything you’ll need for effortless self-catering, and there’s a lovely table where dinner is served. Beyond, the lounge area is full of natural light, with fully-glazed doors leading outside, a choice of comfortable seating and a TV for home-style entertainment. A cloakroom completes the ground floor layout, complementing the first-floor bathroom which has both a bath and separate shower. Nearby, there are two peaceful bedrooms, each with a double bed.

Surrounded by a patchwork of fields, a fenced garden wraps around the property, and includes a patio. Fire up the BBQ and enjoy fresh-air feasts while the children let off steam in the playground close by.

A lovely comfortable house with views over the countryside. Lots of walks in the area & lovely fish restaurants, spoilt for choice. House is very central to areas in West Cork. Would highly recommend.

The property in general plus the location. Also Marcella the owner who did everything possible to help our stay be as enjoyable as it was. Nothing was too much effort for her.
