1 Closheen Lane

We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday here.

The house is well kept and clean, with a very nice garden (which our dog enjoyed) and private parking. It provides the essential for a comfortable stay. The only minor point was the bed a bit short and narrow for us. The house is in a beautiful village close to some nice sites (beach, forests etc). We would love to stay here again!

Lovely spacious property with everything you need, beautiful garden with outdoor seating.

A short walk to the centre of town

Just back from an amazing week here.

The hardest part of booking a holiday house when you have dogs is to get a good garden, and this garden was absolutely perfect. We could just leave the door open and the small dogs were perfectly safe. And the garden wasn't overlooked for relaxing in.Loved to see all the artwork in the house too. That is some hill up to town, but downhill great on the way home

We had a lovely time in this handily located home.

After arriving in a category orange storm late on Saturday afternoon we were delighted to waken to sunshine and blue skies for the rest of the week. The house was warm on arrival and spaceous enough for the 2 of us plus our mini schnauzer Zoe. Zoe loved the secure back yard of open lawn and surrounding gardens. The kitchen has all you would need although we ate out a lot. The master bedroom has plenty of space to move around although the bed is far too low and far too short to be comfortable. Still we slept ok until awakened in the morning by passing traffic. The ensuite is narrow but adequate. The basin seemed a little low or somehow not user friendly as I had to bend awkwardley to brush my teeth or have a shave. The shower cubicle is a little cramped for getting down to wash your feet etc. The shower stength is ok but I prefer more pressure and volume of water. I couldn't get the heater working, perhaps its broken. An annoyance is the fact that you can't use both showers in the house at the same time. That needs rectifying. Yes the instructions warned us of that fact but when you want to get on the road in the morning you need two shower efficiency. By the way there are no shampoo or soap like you get in hotels. We made the mistake of not bringing any since the instructions didn't tell us to. The lounge is spaceous and is well laid out with a good sized tv. It has good heating too. The couch and seating could do with a bit more comfort although again they are adequate. The kitchen and dining area are combined which works well although they are separated from the lounge. There is a downstairs toilet which makes for great convenience and there are toilets upstairs as well. The vaccum cleaner is lacking in suction although we did our best to clean the floors etc before leaving. All in all its a great place to stay and explore the area. We covered most local attractions and went out to Kinsale, Bantry, Macroom, Baltimore, Crookhaven, Brow Head, Mizen Head (closed until March 2025) and many many more places. We covered Michael Collins birth place, where he was brought up and where he died. We ate at the Cross Hotel and Jacks Pilgrams Rest, both highly recommended. Rosscarbery and most of the area seems to close down after summer has gone. We were there for the second week of October and many places were shut. Thankfully Crookhaven had a bar and eating on our travels. 1 Closheen Lane is a great place to stay as is Rosscarberry. We loved it.

Lovely house in a great setting.

5 mins walk to the village with pubs and restaurants. A mile or so to the beach with carpark and toilet facilities. A short drive to the larger towns. We had 2 dogs and they were completely safe in the enclosed garden. Would definitely return.

* We loved the house and the beautiful garden * Everything we needed was there, except a machine or a french press to prepare our coffee.

(There is a machine for capsules, but we don't prefer this way to prepare) But this is not a real issue! * Rosscarbery is a wonderful base to explore West-Cork

Enjoyed the area, beautiful beaches nearby, house very clean, and well equipped.

We found the beds a bit low for ease in getting in and out of, because of a mobility problem on our side. Aside from that, a great place. Thanks to David and Regina for some advice we needed, and having us in their lovely house.

Great stay within walking distance of amenities pubs, restaurants and shop.

Greta beaches nearby and lots of beautiful walking spots. Cottage was clean and had everything you could need.

Lovely comfortable holiday home close within walking distance of Rosscarbery village.

Wonderful house in a great little village!

1 Closheen Lane was the perfect place for our stay in County Cork. Immaculate accommodations with all the amenities. Large home with a huge kitchen. Lots of room for the two of us and our two large dogs. The large garden is beautiful and private and fully fenced for the pups. Rosscarbery is a very "walkable" town: great restaurants and pubs steps away from the house. Also a fantastic base for visits further afield. I'd highly recommend 1 Closheen Lane for a holiday stay in County Cork.

We had a fantastic stay.

What a wonderfully house and the area was beautiful.

Loved this house.

Three adults and one lively medium sized dog . Spotless on arrival. Plenty amenitues for holiday. Bigger than we expected. Garden very secure for our lively dog. We brought her own Tuffi bed for our dog ( over 4 foot long ) which fitted perfectly in the kitchen inside the backdoor so she settled quickly. Perfect location to walk the dog to the Pier and around the Causeway/ Lagoon coming back by the square for coffee and cake. Perfect location for the beautiful coast between Owenahincha and Clonakilty , along by the Galley Head. Also easy access to Glandore, Baltimore and Bantry, and many other beautiful spots if time permitted. Everything we needed and more . Thank You

A very pleasant stay in this lovely and well located house in charming Rosscarbery.

We thoroughly enjoyed both the house and the beautiful garden. Perhaps directions could be a little more detailed for the final stage of the journey once at Rosscarbery. This would be helpful to UK visitors whose sat nav doesn't recognise Irish postcodes.

Well equipped and nicely situated property with a steep climb to the lovely village of Rosscarbery.

This very clean, well maintained 3 bedroomed cottage has a large garden to enjoy despite some road traffic noise. Ideal for a family with children as the twin room is less suitable for adults.

Very pleasant and good value.

We had a lovely few days in Roscarberry.

1 Closheen Lane was perfect. We particularly enjoyed the fabulous location with a short walk up to the town and over to Warren Beach. House was spotless and lovely and warm. Travelling with a teen meant that the excellent wifi and TV entertainment was a hit for the evenings. Loved the touches including some beautiful art. Beds very comfortable. Lot of space. Large beautifully landscaped garden which must be fabulous in Summer. In short, the house had absolutely everything we needed. We had a few questions before our arrival and host was very responsive and helped with restaurant recommendations and shopping queries. I am definitely coming back and plan to book for Summer. May even think about bringing the dog!

A very attractive cottage, well located within walking distance of the town square.

The property is very comfortable and quite well equipped. We liked the well kept garden, the convenience of the parking and the privacy at the cottage. We would recommend this property and will certainly return.

House bitterly cold on arrival.

Even colder than outside. Owner said house had been closed for 6 weeks, in the middle of winter! - never occurred to him to have someone go in and put the heating on prior to our arrival! I was wrapped in a blanket hours after our arrival as it took that long for the heating system to thaw out the place. Oven filthy, clearly not been cleaned in a very long time. Owner blamed previous guests who stayed over Xmas and new year! Acrid smoke pouring out stinging my eyes, filling the room and smoke alarm going for ages. Had to open door on a cold night to let the smoke out. Also horrible smell from oven. Disgusting. Broken light bulbs, owner said he'd have them replaced for us. Instead someone came in while we were out and moved one bulb from a light and put it in a light with a broken bulb! Couldn't have a proper bath because the bath plug is so old and worn away that most of the water leaks down the plug hole, also water pressure from the bath taps so poor that after 45 minutes of running, still only a couple of inches of lukewarm water in the bath as all the hot water had leaked down the plughole! Shower not much better. Slow trickle of water veering from scalding hot to cold. Both bathroom and en suite shabby and dated. Should both be refurbished

Had a great stay in Roscarbery, Cork.

The house suited our needs and the living room was so cozy and a great place to be as a family. It was close to everything that we wanted to see and the beach was fabulous. David was very easy to communicate with. Would recommend to others.

Everything was great.

Lovely house in a beautiful location

A nice property in a good location.

Ideal for the facilities in the village of Rosscarbery. Good pubs and restraunts.Nice pretty garden.We enjoyed our stay. We found the owner very helpful and friendly. We found with five adults in the house, maybe a shower inside the bath would have been helpful. We would stay here again .

House worked very well for us and our two small dogs.

The heating especially made the house very cosy for our December stay.

Very comfortable house, well equipped and nicely furnished.

Good location and nice garden.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, house was lovely plenty to do in the local area and owner was incredibly pleasant to deal with.

Would highly recommend this house

Very good holiday however a bit disappointing that so many of the local pubs/restaurants only served food at the weekend which we hadn’t expected to be the case
