“Homely, comfortable bungalow with brilliant views”
A wonderful Irish welcome from the home owners - loved the cakes and tea. A spacious bungalow with everything we would need for the week ahead. It could however have been a bit cleaner (the cooker particularly, and the dishwasher which didn't have a front door on it) Glengarriff proved to be a great area to stay - with easy access to surrounding areas. We loved Mizen Head and Sheep's head. Well worth another visit.
