Aunties

Very presentable, clean, spacious and comfortable cottage.

Very helpful owners. We thorughly enjoyed the stay. Thanks very much

Aunties is in a beautiful location, up on a hill with private places to sit outside if you're lucky enough with the weather.

The layout of the house is quirky, and as a tall person I had to be careful not to bump my head against lamps and low doorframes. It's handy to have a full kitchen with appliances and everything you need. The bathroom is modern and clean, the bedrooms spacious. The mattress on the bed wasn't of the best quality (anymore?). One thing to note: the cottage is located on a hill as mentioned, and to get there you have to take quite a tight uphill turn. We were on motorbikes and it was fine, but for newer or less experienced riders it might be a bit tricky. The bikes can be safely parked directly by the house. All very secure. All in all we had a great time at Aunties and would consider it again when we're in the area.

Fantastic holiday, great weather, loved the house and location, very private , but near enough for places to eat , The near by town Bantry is less than 5 miles away , some beautiful scenery, we did not want to leave , the hosts Joe & Mary were lovely , would defiantly do a return visit ,

A traditonal cottage in a lovely location near to the charming town of Bantry.

This location is adjoining a farm but only 1/2 mile from the main road which gives you easy access to the beautiful contrasting peninsulas of Mizen Sheeps and Beara.

Well furnished and comfortable accommodation situated near to Bantry.

A Beautiful Cottage, with everything we could of asked for inside.

The house guide was very easy to help us get comfortable with our surroundings, and was explained is a great way. The kitchen got the most praise out of our group, the appliances offered allowed for some easy and quick cooking. The surroundings where peaceful, the home was warm. There are some amazing scenic drives at your feet.

Fantastic place to stay so peaceful had an amazing time especially watching the meteor shower one of the nights made it even more special

Aunties is a very spacious cottage with really interesting features.

The cooking facilities look odd but were in fact very easy to use. It's also in a really good location for visiting places in the Southwest of Ireland. The owners live nearby and were really helpful and friendly. It's not suitable for people with mobility issues as there are stairs and a few other steps. We really enjoyed our 4 night stay there and could gave done longer.

Great care was given to preserve some of the original features of the Cottage while giving it updated comforts.

The drive up the hill to the cottage provided one of the most beautiful sites I've seen in Ireland. It was an overlook onto Bantry Bay. My hosts' written instructions were more accurate than my GPS. Well worth the drive up the hill.

The best cottage you could find in Ireland.

Every is just perfect and the host are so helpful and nice. We have booked for 7 night but we extended for 5 more nights as it was so perfect we couldn’t leave. We will return every year. Thank you Sykes and hosts.

We had a really nice time at the cottage.

It's a lovely spot in beautiful surroundings. The cottage itself is clean and comfortable and has everything you need. Mary and Joe were very helpful and considerate hosts. The hob stopped working at one point and they immediately came around with a replacement. We had excellent weather and greatly appreciated being able to sit and eat outside. Also, the neighbours' dogs are very friendly - no problem coming here with children! Thanks, Mary and Joe, we'd love to come back at some point!

Beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet area the only thing I'd say is really could do with better cooking facilities in the kitchen a cooker would be a great idea other than that it is a beautiful cottage so cosy looking forward to getting back in spring summer time

Lovely house, very comfortable place to stay.

Comfortable beds, lovely linens. The shower was a bit problematic but the host came and sorted it out quickly - they are very caring people and have put a lot of thought and care into making the cottage a great place to spend a week!

We enjoyed Aunties and the cottage although a bit quirky was lovely.

However there was only one shower working and there definitely is no oven., even though I was told by your staff there was. The location was a bit hard to get to and not really walkable to pubs etc. however we still had a pleasant time therr

Aunties is a good sized cottage set amidst two working farms.

The house has a basic charm with the fire helping to bring a little cosiness to the evenings. The outside area is better suited to older children as it is open and unfenced in parts. Aunties is well located to explore the surrounding coastal area, and villages and towns.

The property was charmingly rustic and very clean, it sits amid a working farm.

Situated between Bantry and Glengarriff, the location is ideal for people wanting to be just outside a town in a tourist area. The listing was slightly inaccurate, there was not an electric oven, instead we had access to a microwave and a 2 ring hob that sits on top of the kitchen counter. The downstairs shower was broken on arrival, this wasn't a problem for us and we're sure it will be repaired when possible. The garden was in honesty disappointing, it was not private, nor was it an acre. Our children were chased on one occasion by 2 large neighbouring dogs on the lawn directly outside the house. We could not recommend it for families with children anticipating a safe outdoor space. The bedrooms were well positioned and the larger room had plenty of storage space, however the mattresses were rather uncomfortable.
