A wonderful hideaway

A perfect spot for long or short walks and brilliant for me as I was catching up on some creative work which was completed in the calm and peaceful surroundings of West Cork

Very nice little chalet

Very cute little chalet in a wonderful garden. The host was very nice and helpful. The surrounding is very attractive but you need a car to go places. Beautiful Barley Cove Beach is roughly 20 min drive. Don’t miss the short hike to Three Castle Head.

Beautiful property in a gorgeous location

We had a fantastic break. Jackie was was a friendly and helpful host. We were free to explore the extensive grounds- the views are spectacular, especially at sunset. The chalet is lovely. Very comfortable with everything as pictured. A little slice of paradise! We were visited regularly by Elsa and Saffron the dogs and enjoyed our evening strolls to visit the ponies and donkey. The surrounding area is stunning - there is so much to see and do. We enjoyed daily sea swims and exploring the coastline. We can't recommend this place highly enough!

Little Haven

It’s magic, really, we didn’t wanted to leave because there is just so much more to explore; J&J have such a wonderful way of making sure u feel at ease…the ponies and the donkey and the dogs and the chickens and the ducks and then the hares are just rounding it up so u spent ur time in the best company- even if u are just staying put at rockcottage. And the countryside is just amazing, the coast is just around the corner and u stay just a short drive away from all these beautiful and vivid villages…we couldn’t have wish for more. Thanks a million for having us

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Sarsfield

I am a fun loving individual who loves travelling and meeting new people. My particular passion are the animals here at Rock Cottage and the beautiful unspoilt landscape. My interests are walking, photography & cooking. I love to go walking around this part of Ireland and exploring all the beautiful sites. My passion is to go to the local farmers' markets and cook with locally grown produce.

Why they chose this property

I spent much of my childhood here in Ireland having been born in Dublin. I moved full time to Ireland in 2014 from London.

What makes this property unique

Having rented Rock Cottage for over a year, I decided to purchase this beautiful place and continue with this well established holiday accommodation business. The gardens, paddocks and surrounding hillsides are stunning, particularly the 360 degree view from the top of the garden overlooking Dunmanus Bay, The Sheeps Head and on the other side the hills and Mt Gabriel.
