    The hosts Abina and Tim were exceptional and added so much to our overall experience. Their hospitality, friendliness and knowledge of the area made our stay an experience we shall find hard to equal

The property

Dunmanway 3.3 miles.

Waterfall House is a delightful, end-terrace, single-storey cottage nestled on the outskirts of Dunmanway, County Cork.

The cottage offers far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside, off-road parking, and is pet-friendly, making an ideal base for a romantic getaway for two in Ireland.

A small porch with seating welcomes you in before stepping into the beautifully furnished, open-plan living space with a combination of traditional and quirky décor.

The sitting area is a relaxing spot where you can start the woodburning stove, choose a book or DVD from the selection, and sink into the armchairs.

Set the table for four, whilst your other half prepares a home-cooked meal in the well-equipped kitchen complete with an electric oven and hob and a drinks tray ready for an afternoon tipple.

Guests also have access to a shared laundry room and a front garden with outdoor seating to enjoy the lovely rural views.

When it's time to rest, there is a double bedroom with a wall-mounted TV, storage space, and an en-suite bathroom.

Start your holiday by exploring the market town of Dunmanway where you'll find a selection of traditional Irish pubs including The Southern Bar, supermarkets, and a variety of shops, cafés, and boutiques.

Walkers will find their paradise in the nearby Nowen Hill Forest Recreational Area with the ruins of Castledonovan and the Clodagh Standing Stones both nearby.

You'll also have easy access to the coast where the stately mansion of Bantry House, Bantry Bay Golf Club, Shanvallybeg Beach, and boat tours to Whiddy Island await.

Head south to the town of Skibbereen, home to the West Cork Arts Centre, Skibbereen Golf Club, farmers markets, and Skibbereen Heritage Centre to discover the area's rich history.

Or perhaps take a scenic drive to the city of Cork where you'll find The English Market, Cork City Gaol, and the Crawford Art Gallery.

Waterfall House offers two guests an idyllic, romantic retreat in a beautiful region of Ireland.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of €150.
