Photos and Description of this Mizen Head holiday chateau / country house
Period Residence on the edge of Dunmanus Bay

Rock Cottage is a Georgian hunting lodge, dating back to 1826.

A unique property with lots of historical features. Rock Cottage lies on the Mizen peninsula, very secluded, yet close to everything the area has to offer.

The main house overlooks the gardens and lightly wooded paddocks, where sheep and donkeys graze, joined by some hens, dogs and cats to complete the cast.All in all the property stands on 17 acres.

At the back lies a walled courtyard/ garden with the restored outbuildings. Stables, a smaller holiday cottage ( see property 72453) and the owners accommodation.

A short walk leads to heather covered hills with stunning views over the bay and the surrounding countryside.

Weather you bring your family or enough friends to fill the house, Rock Cottage is the ideal base to explore the area or relax here.

Urlaub in Rock Cottage vom 23.07. – 13.08.2011

Review Submitted: November 6, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
Unseren Aufenthalt in Rock Cottage haben wir von der ersten bis zur letzen Minute genossen – vom späten Abend unserer Ankunft, als die erleuchteten Fenster zwischen den alten Bäumen des Parks uns willkommen hießen, bis zum Morgen unserer Abfahrt, bei der uns die Schafe auf der nahen Weide nachblökten. Im Haus hatten wir uns schnell eingelebt und genossen die Atmosphäre in den wunderschön dekorierten Wohn- und Essräumen, die Schlafzimmer mit dazugehörigem Bad, die hervorragend ausgestattete Küche, in der immer wieder mit Kräutern aus dem Garten verfeinerte Menus entstanden. Bei dem großzügigen Platzangebot war es uns auch möglich, immer wieder Freunde aus nah und fern zu begrüßen und zu bewirten. Landhausurlaub pur. Und selbst unsere zunächst endlos scheinenden drei Wochen vergingen wie im Flug: mit langem, durch nichts gestörtem Schlaf, ausgedehnten Frühstücken auf der Terrasse oder im Esszimmer, langen Wanderungen über die Hügel von Mizen Head, Baden am Strand – dank unserer Neos war das Wasser immer gut zu ertragen und dank der leichten Briese und der nicht zu merkenden Sonne schafften wir es sogar bis zum Sonnenbrand –, ersten und erfolgreichen Angelversuchen von den Felsen, gelegentlichen Pints in diversen Pubs von Schull bis Crookhaven und abendlichem Spielen und Lesen vor dem Kaminfeuer. Und immer wieder zwischendurch ein Schnack mit Barbara mit Tipps für Trips und Anekdoten aus dem Leben einer Einwanderin. Was bleibt noch zu sagen: Lotta (12) hatte die Schafe, Esel, Katzen, Hunde und Enten schnell in ihr Herz geschlossen und für die Zeit unseres Aufenthalts die Pflege übernommen. Und die Jungs (14 und 16) freuten sich nicht zuletzt über den W-Lan-Empfang im Haus, der half sie mit Gott weiß wem in der Welt in Verbindung zu halten. Sollte es unser letzter Urlaub zu sechst gewesen sein – wir haben uns auf jeden Fall alle mehr als wohlgefühlt. Und wissen: Wir kommen zurück, vielleicht in kleinerer Besetzung.

Entspannung Pur !!

Review Submitted: July 30, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
Wirklich tolles Haus mit Charakter. Es ist nicht weit bis in wunderbare verspielte Ort ( mit Einkaufsmöglickeiten, Restaurants etc.). Frau Klotzer hat sich ganz wunderbar um alles gekümmert und war immer für Fragen ansprechbar. Wir haben die Zeit bei Ihr wirklich genossen und sind froh das wir in unserem ersten aber bestimmt nicht letzten Irland Urlaub so viele positive Erfahrungen machen konnten.

Erholung pur!

Review Submitted: October 25, 2010 Date of Stay: October 2010
Wir haben die 10 Tage im Rock Cottage sehr genossen. Diese unglaubliche Ruhe. Das alte Haus ist wirklich herrschaftlich und unsere Kinder (4 und 10) konnten die gesamte Umgebung auch gut einmal alleine erkunden. Die Eigentümerin ist hilfsbereit und höflich und die Tiere auf dem Hof sind einfach zauberhaft! Kein Tag an dem unsere Tochter die Esel nicht mit Karotten und Äpfeln gefüttert hätte. Wir können das Rock Cottage wirklich nur empfehlen, man kann vieles in der Umgebung erkunden und wenn man einfach einmal "weg von der Welt" sein will, kann man dieses Gefühl dort finden. Obwohl man schnell in Schull ist, liegt das Anwesen so versteckt, dass wir oft das Gefühl hatten - jetzt könnte um uns alles in Schutt und Asche liegen - wir kriegen nichts mit :-)

Auf jeden Fall ein empfehlenswertes Feriendomizil! Danke Barbara :-)

vacation from the first moment on

Review Submitted: September 5, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
I spent 10 days in Rock cottage with my whole family. It was more than I expected. The house was wonderful, large enough to accomodate all seven of us comfortably and cosy, even our dog. Each room had its own bath. The kitchen was professionally laid out so cooking was more than fun. Sugar, flour, vinegar, salt, oil and spices were provided and fresh herbs could be obtained from the garden. The interior of the house was very tasteful and well-maintained. The garden was so wonderful so we had a hard time deciding where to sit, inside or outside. During night, the view from the rooms into the moonlit garden was magical and in the morning the sun was shining directly into my room. It was very quiet and tranquil. I also enjoyed the animals around the house, especially Paula and the donkeys.
It was a perfect place to start day trips all around West Cork, with the feeling of coming home in the evening..
Our host Barbara was friendly, charming, discreet, uncomplicated and supported us with everything we needed. She even offered us vegetables from her own garden.
I can recommand this place without reservation as a true oasis of recreation and I will surely come back.
