About this property

Mulroe Cove - Studio

'Mulroe Studio' sleeps 2 to 4 and has a spacious double height living/dining room with a characterful mix of antique and modern furniture and a twin bedroom on a mezzanine floor. It also has a double bed sofa that can be pulled out in the living room. 'Mulroe Studio' has a charming kitchen with an old dresser, table and a modern free-standing gascooker with electric oven and a stylish, contemporary bathroom with bath/shower. The seaviews from the kitchen, living room and bedroom are stunning.

Mulroe Cove is a superb waterfront property and has a truly spectacular and uniquely private setting. It has its own private shingle beach which is only 5 metres from the house and spreads 0.5 km wide. It is a wonderful place to swim, kayak and fish or to stroll and relax on.

Due to its very sheltered position on the South side of the Dunmanus Bay, Mulroe is not only a superb seafront property, but is also set in 5 acres of mature gardens, which comprises a walled garden with Mediterranean and tropical plants as well as various areas of lawn with mature trees and a woodland with waterway. The woodland stretches over 0.5 miles from the house to the main road, thus lending the house a very private and tranquil setting.

At the far side of the beach the sea stretches into a beautiful wild marshland in which many different varieties of birds live and nest. This is a beautiful conservation area.

The house is a lovingly restored stone cottage set in the beautiful walled garden with wonderful sea views. It combines old with new, thus lending the house a timeless feel full of character.

The house consists of three separate rental units, the first, called 'The Artist's Studio' sleeps 2-4 people, the second, called 'Mulroe House' sleeps 4 and the third, "The Boathouse sleeps 4 .

The seaviews from the kitchen, living room and bedroom are stunning.

Dunbeacon - a quiet heaven.

Idyllic studio. Peace & calm. Listen to the lake lapping the pebbles and watch the boats dipping up and down.

Ein gute Wahl!

Mulroe Cove - House ist ein attraktives und gemütliches Haus wo mann sich richtig wohlfühlen kann. Der Garten ist herrlich mit vielen schönen Ecken zum lesen oder einfach die Aussicht zu geniessen. In der Umgebung gibt es genug zu sehen, man kann schöne Wanderungen machen und wer möchte ist in einer guten Stunde in Cork. Was einen Aufenthalt in Mulroe Cove aber vor allen Dingen auch sehr angenehm macht ist Stephanie, unsere Landlady. Sie ist herzlich, sehr hilfsbereit und vor allen Dingen sehr sich selbst. Mulroe Cove House, aber eben so das Boatshouse und das Studio können wir jedem sehr empfehlen.

Great, see my comments below though.

I very much enjoyed my stay at Mullrow cove, Durrus, County Cork, Ireland, however it turned a little sour to say the least when I was asked to pay 55 euros for cleaning by the owner. This, I thought I had already paid? I paid 454 euros for 7 nights stay and 55 euros for services of which i thought was for the cleaning. It seems a little coincidental that I was billed 55euros for cleaning by the owner and 55 euros by yourselves. I paid 509 euros to you.....if it is the case that the 55 euros was for cleaning, what is the 55 euros you have received from me, for? Would appreciate a response. Kind regards M S DENWOOD

Perfect for Kayaking & relaxing ....

We had a thoroughly enjoyable week at Mulroe Cove , we stayed in the Studio , plenty large enough & well equipt for our family of 3 plus our JR Terrier . A huge draw for us was that we could take our Kayaks & launch from just outside the door ( the shore is just yards away) we also hired another Kayak from a guy in Durras called Darren at a very reasonable rate , he even delivered & collected the Kayak. We saw Heron , Little Egret & even a Kingfisher close to the house . We bought prawns straight off the boat from one of the fishermen that keeps his boat in the cove . We enjoyed a couple of excelent meals in Ahakista at Arundals on the pier , local rabbit done 3 ways was perfect . Stephanie was very helpful without being overbearing , even phoning ahead to the local garage when we had a problem with our car . The car was swiftly sorted and the gentleman in the garage didnt even charge us... What more can i say,.

Why they chose this property

I was smitten by this beautiful waterfront property which has been lovingly restored over the years. I holidayed many times in West Cork as a child and love its beauty, and the diversity of its mountains, rivers and coastline all of which are within easy reach.
