Photos and Description of this Mizen Head holiday cottage
1 Bedroomed cottage, 1 shower room, sleeps 3 people

Rock Cottage 2 is a converted stable building with all modern conveniences on the inside, but preserving its historic character on the outside. It is situated in the walled courtyard/garden of a Georgian hunting lodge dating back to 1826. The property stands on 17 acres of garden, paddocks and heather covered hills. A short walk leads onto a hill, where the stunning views over Dunmanus Bay and the rugged landscape unfold and where a bench allows the visitor to sit and enjoy the magical sunsets. Rock Cottage is a heaven for animal lovers with both pets and farm animals roaming. The setting of the entire property is unique and utterly charming. Tranquility is guaranteed, but it is also close to everything the area has to offer. The ideal location to explore and come back to your home away from home in the evenings.

Oasis of ease am comfort - Ireland at it's best!

Review Submitted: August 15, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
If you seek a place for romantic and quiet recreation in the southwest of Ireland - Rockcottage is your place to stay!

An authentic rubblestone cottage surrounded by nothing but nature and friendly pets, modern and nicely arranged furnishing, an open fireplace to light a romantic fire, comfortable beds and a kitchen equiped with everything you need. You can sit on a little bench on a small hill, overlook the entrance of Dunmanus Bay, smell the salty odour of the Atlantic Ocean and watch the sun sinking in it.

Additionallly you will have a very friendly and nice host who will try to help you with everything you may need.

To put it in one sentence: It was even better than we ever imagined before getting there.

We will definitely come back for more!

Best wishes to Barbara & all her pets and animals!

Seelenverwandschaft

Review Submitted: July 22, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
Du meine Güte, wie die Zeit vergeht. Eigentlich wollte ich ja SOFORT nach meiner Rückkehr meine Weiterempfehlung für dieses wunderschöne Fleckchen Erde schreiben, aber zu schnell hat einen der Alltag wieder...
Um so wichtiger ist es, sich ab und zu Urlaub zu gönnen, und Rock Cottage ist einer der wenigen Plätze, die ich kenne, wo mir das perfekt gelingt, die Erholung sofort einsetzt und wo jeder Tag wie zwei Tage Erholung ist.
Im letzten Jahr hatte ich keine Zeit, hierher zu kommen, und es hat mir etwas gefehlt. Seit ich das Rock Cottage kenne, verstehe ich die Menschen, die jedes Jahr mindestens einmal an einem bestimmten Ort Urlaub machen, weil sie eine Art seelenverwandten Ort gefunden haben. Und meiner liegt hier - im Rock Cottage bei Schull.

Traumhaftes Cottage in absolut ruhiger Lage

Review Submitted: May 29, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
Mein Mann und ich haben im Rock Cottage eine wundervolle Woche verbracht. Nach einer Woche Rundreise durch Irland haben wir anschließend die idylische und fantastisch ruhige Lage des kleinen Cottages sehr genossen. Das Cottage ist sehr liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtet. Uns hat es wirklich an nichts gefehlt. Zudem ist der Standort optimal, um die landschaflich reizvolle Umgebung ganz im Südwesten von Irland zu erkunden. Unsere Gastgeberin Barbara hat uns sehr herzlich Willkommen geheißen und alles für unser Wohlbefinden getan. Gemeinsam mit den Tieren auf dem Anwesen fühlten wir uns dort direkt wie zu Hause und der Abschied fiel uns sehr schwer. Wir können das Rock Cottage nur vorbehaltlos empfehlen.

September in Cork

Review Submitted: September 30, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2010
Having spend a week at Rock Cottage in September 2010, we both left feeling thoroughly refreshed. The cottage itself is in a lovely setting and beautifully kept with Barbara making us feel very welcome.

We were blessed with lovely weather throughout the week which only added to our appreciation of the stunning scenery. The cottage is ideally situated to explore West Cork, with Schull, Baltimore and Skibbereen all nearby offering lovely walks, food, shopping and beaches.

Island hopping from Baltimore was a particular highlight, and while enjoying a pub lunch in the blazing sunshine on Crookhaven pier there were few places we would rather have been.

Urlauber von 31.07.2010-14.08.2010

Review Submitted: September 8, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
Es war ein toller Urlaub, die Gegend ist ruhig und wunderschön.
Die Besitzerin – Frau Klotzer, war stetes bemüht, dass uns gut geht, immer hilfsbereit, uns mit den Informationen zu versorgen.
Die viele Tiere auf der Farm, die gemütliche Cottage mit sehr gut ausgestattete Küche, schönes Wetter (nur 1-mal in 2 Wochen hat es geregnet), nette Leute – alles das hat uns ermöglicht unsere Akkus wieder aufzuladen.
Ich kann die Cottage nur empfahlen.
