Country Farmhouse Self Catering Accommodation
This is a small apartment with 2 single beds, ideal for somewhere to lay your head and get a bite to eat, not any good for hanging out in all day !! Apartment is on 1st floor with a flight of stairs to gain access. Great for sleeping and to use as base while visiting the wonderful South of Ireland. Welcome to my gorgeous apartment on the side of a 16th century Farmhouse overlooking Cork Harbour. Cork Harbour is a natural harbour and river estuary at the mouth of the River Lee in County Cork, Ireland. It is one of several which lay claim to the title of "second largest natural harbour" in the world by navigational area. It is also just 3 miles away from historic Cobh. The town of Cobh in East Cork is located on Great Island, one of three islands in Cork Harbour. The other two islands are Fota and Little Island and all three are now joined by roads and bridges. Cove as in the 'Cove of Cork' was the original name for Cobh but this changed to Queenstown in 1849 after a visit by Queen Victoria. After the foundation of the Irish Free State in 1922, the town reverted back to the current name of Cobh. In the town square of Cobh, there is a memorial to the victims of The Lusitania, many of whom are buried in the local cemetery. The ship was sunk off Kinsale by a German submarine in 1915 and led to the United States of America joining World War 1. Another unhappy association is with the Titanic, 'the safest liner in the world'. Queenstown was her last port of call on her fateful maiden voyage in 1914. The harbour at Cobh has played a huge role throughout Irish history but never as important as during the Famine Years of 1844-1849. The Queenstown Story at the Cobh Heritage Centre tells us just how big a role Cobh played. We are also just 1 mile away from sleepy East ferry marina of Marlogue

We only stayed for three days, but we had a great time. We especially loved the view and the atmosphere of the charming farmhouse. If any of our friends and family travel to the south of Ireland in the future, we’ll be sure to recommend this place! Thanks again for everything!
We stayed here for the first leg of our trip, and it was a wonderful break from the bustling city while still being within a 30 minute drive to Cork (and Cobh is even closer). It was a wonderful home base with a lot of charm and a gorgeous view (and very cute animals :) ). Shirley was accommodating of our late check-in time and made us feel very welcome and taken care of.

Shirley
Shirley's abode is adorable and lovely. Our apartment had everything we needed in it. The animals living on the property are very sweet and kind. I do wish our neighbors were more mindful about quiet hours from 11pm-8am, but that's no fault from Shirley. If we're ever in the area again, we are keeping this place in mind. Thank you so much for having us!
This property has a beautiful view from the front of the house. The kitchen was clean and well equipped. The bathroom was clean and a good size. The WiFi can be a bit of a challenge as the signal was weak in our room. Also, ensure that you stock up well with supplies in Cobh as there are no stores or restaurants close by. Very friendly and helpful hosts.
