Retreat West Cork
Hideaway on re-wilding farm with river walk
3 guests 1 bedroom 2 beds
If you wish a place to relax, this is it! A 6 acre nature-space near Rosscarbery. Beaches, cafes, restaurants, all within 5 mins drive. A lovely en-suite private room with a King Size bed, plus, if need, a sofa bed can be set up. For this, there is a €25 supplement for the duration of your stay. There is a small kitchenette with air-fryer, fridge and a 2 ring hob. No TV!! but good wifi. A great base to explore west Cork. We provide coffee, tea, cereal & a few basics
The space
Ours is a large modern timber frame house.
Airbnb space within. A lovely ensuite bedroom, (underfloor heated) with a fine bed! looking directly out to trees and nature. If you are from a city, the first thing you will notice is QUIETNESS, esp. at night! The sofa converts into a comfortable fold out bed that would suit an adult or a child.
Between bedroom and main block, is a shared hallway & access to a small kitchenette for your own use. Has all mod cons!
Presently we are re-wilding the farm & we strongly suggest you walk the path! There's a picnic table by the stream and a few meditation spots along its bank. And do please pop out b/4 sleep to look at the Milky Way. John's hobby is astronomy and would be so happy to chat!!
Your Stay
If you come in July / August even Sept, if the birds haven't already got them, you can pick blueberries. Finally, just to say, most people tell us they find two nights in the area way too short.
Guest access
Parking is right outside the door. Come and go as you please. We are here to help with suggestions and advice.
Don't simply rely on what Google says!!!
Local knowledge is still far far better!
Other things to note
John is a writer, now working on the sequel to his globally recognised classic book on adventure travel 'Quondam: travels in a once World. The book featured on RTE television 'Nationwide. . Signed copies available.
Sara, works as a Craniosacral therapist just above the guest area. Treatments may be available best to book ahead. I love to work with birth recovery and children but many guests also enjoy a deeply relaxing treatment for themselves. I arrange my work at times when guests are usually out and about to make my presence upstairs as unobtrusive as possible. I do not work full-time.
