“Access to everything distance to all things.”

Solitude, peace and tranquility. A real away-from-it-all place.

“Nana's House was a beautiful cottage in a stunning location Often you read about somewhere having a view of the lake /river /mountains and then it is only from the roof with telescope!”

NOT so in this case , the kitchen/dining room has two windows overlooking the inlet between the Beara and Kerry, absolutely stunning views. The cottage was quiet and quite isolated but only 10 minutes walk from the shore . The wonderful townland of Allihies is only 10-15 minutes away by car and is worthy of any praise it gets Mr Murphy was kind and welcoming and great to talk to if you needed information. The cottage was very clean , cosy and a great place to stay for exploring the Ring of Beara I would recommend this property to anyone wanting the rael taste of Co Cork and finally, I have to say that Sykes Cottages are a great organisation as everything was spot on and smoothly planned and executed. I will use them again!

“We loved staying at Nana's cottage, was a great week.”

Surrounding scenery and landscape is dramatic, views from the property great. Only thing was the wifi which was off a lot of the time. The family were very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend.

“My trip down west”

I have stayed at Nanas house twice now. Pat and Teresa are great hosts and nothing is too much. Beautiful and tranquil spot to stay and whined down from city life. Nanas is dog friendly and is very comfortable with everything you need when self catering. Thanks Pat and Teresa for another value for money stay . See you next year. Fin.

“Great Place with a Wonderful View”

We really enjoyed our time at this fantastic cottage in Ireland. The views are unbelievable. The cottage, itself, was very well decorated, and there was plenty of room. The hosts, Patrick and Theresa, were very kind and were always around for questions. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. On a side note, there were a couple of issues. First off, there is no wifi in the house. They did have a little wifi device that we could borrow from them which took care of that problem. Sadly, their usual one was broken when we arrived, and the new one didn't arrive until the day before we left. This wasn't really their fault, and I can't blame them. But, boy, it would have been nice if they had it earlier. We were kinda spaced out on a number of issues, and that little wifi device would have came in handy. Also, it would be nice if they could get some different fry pans for the kitchen. I hate using scratched up non-stick pans for anything. Some more stainless steel pans would be great. Also, it's not like this was a huge deal or anything. It's just something that would be good for future guests.

“Great place.”

The Murphy's were the best, and Glen was quite funny and friendly. We can't wait to get back to Beara and rent one of the Murphy's places again for next summer. Great memories here. Truly a great time.

“From when we arrived we were struck by the beauty of the surrounding scenery.”

The house was charming, welcoming and there was lots to do on the Beara peninsula. We enjoyed every minute we spent at Nana's Cottage.

About the location

ALLIHIES, COUNTY CORK

Castletown Bearhaven 7.5 miles.

The village of Allihies in County Cork, on the Western tip of the wild and rugged Beara peninsula, lies in a region of unspoiled natural beauty. Allihies overlooks beautiful Ballydonegan Bay, with its magnificent quartz strand, a direct result of the mining era and somewhere you can take in some history at Allihies Copper mine museum. Each summer a festival is held in August (around the 15th), with horse racing, novelty events, and dancing in the Community Hall. The village lies on The Ring of Beara, a tourist trail of about 195 kilometres (121 miles) circumnavigating the peninsula. Attractions nearby include Dursey Island, which is linked to the mainland by a Cable Car and is the only such ride in Europe to cross over water. The island is also a recognised Bird Sanctuary, with numerous species, rare and otherwise, seen regularly. There are also many coastal and countryside walks and quaint villages to enjoy. Other favorites for visitors to Allihies include Dunboy Castle, Derrynane House and Puxley mansion. A great location for exploring West Cork.
