About this property
Stunning large stone cottage on the Wild Atlantic Way with sea views and WI-FI
This is a simply stunning stone Cottage located right on the Wild Atlantic Way with it's own WI-FI. It is beautiful both inside and out. The interior retains 'a country atmosphere' as it consists of white washed walls and extensive use of wood. The Cottage sleeps up to 10 and is ideal for two families. Two of the bedrooms are en suite and there are three bathrooms in total. The kitchen is very large and is fully equipped with all conveniences. Our location is fabulous with total privacy on our 1 Hectare site plus you have access within 300m to the sea for fishing and 300m to a local beach with lots of shellfish. The views are wonderful to the Fastnet Lighthouse and of Toormore Bay from the house. Schull is only 8 km and Goleen is only 6 kms away. The house is fantastic for children with so much land, wildlife plus we now have a fantastic Swing, Slide and See Saw for the kids. Beautiful safe Ballyrisode beach is only 2 km away, with its abundant supply of Rock pools for children to explore. A simply wonderful holiday is assured!
We have recently made some great changes to Reen Cottage. We have utilised the kitchen area better by adding a two seater couch and a single seater armchair to make the area so much more comfortable. This will be a very popular area at all times of the day as the seats are right beside the double patio doors which open on to the patio and have great views. Wea have also added Fuschia headging and created a garden area whilst adding swings and a slide for kids.
Our hallway downstairs has been revamped with tasteful mirrors, a beautiful wooden bench and rugs and lighting whilst the sitting room which is located upstairs for the views has been hugely upgraded with a flat screen TV, new rugs, lighting, new seats and a fantastic wicker lounger to relax in and enjoy the views of the Atlantic ocean.
Quite simply this is one of the best houses in the West Cork area.

About the host
Hosted by Ross Barry
This land belonged to my parents since 1961 and they owned a separate property closeby. Following my Father's death in 1994 I purchased the land from my Mum and we built our dream West Cork home on the site which we have enjoyed for so many years now. We even added a boat two years ago to get the maximum fishing and touring and installed our own mooring closeby which can be used by guests. We even catch our own Lobsters and Shrimp!
Why they chose this property
When you see the views from the rear of the cottage and experience the sheer peace and quiet you will understand why we chose here. Add to the fact that you can stroll out of the cottage down to the beach only 300 metres away and collect your dinner when the tide is out! Clams, Cockles, Razor Fish and we have even found Oysters! I have spent nearly 50 years holidaying in this exact area and love it as much now as I did when I was a kid. We even have WI-FI
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location! Fishing from the beach, fishing from the rocks, peace and quiet, privacy, luxury, stunning views, beautiful ocean, great walks from the Cottage and lovely shops and pubs in nearby Schull. Our own secure WI-FI just added.
