Sea Spray Cottage is GREAT!
Review Submitted: September 9, 2009

My husband, 2.5 and .5 year old children really enjoyed our stay at Sea Spray. The house was plenty big (we didn't use two bedrooms at all) and comfortable for our family to stretch out and relax during a very rainy week in Co Cork. The views were spectacular! We spotted dolphins from the kitchen window. Bring your own binoculars as there is always something great to see. Neighbor, Nancy, lent us hers - she's delightful. Lovely place, lovely people. Nearby Clonakilty provided great shopping and strolling. We visited Blarney while there - about an hours drive - we also visit Union ??, a fishing village just beyond Leap. Purchased the freshest fish and seafood there! The beach is in walking distance with a bit of a climb down - we managed with both children (albeit nervously the first time). Try to plan trip to shop in advance for groceries and peat/wood (first day's paper needs, basic spices and condiments only provided). GREAT rock hunting location. Kitchen appliances a bit aged, but we made do cooking there every day. Cottage was clean, fenced-in cliff/shoreline was perfect to protect our toddler and Doris is fantastic - very open, honest and quick to respond/resolve concerns. We would not only recommend this cottage but would come back again.
